Very nice house! Was very hot the days we were there. This house does NOT have air conditioning, next time we will pay attention to that. Ended up having to sleep downstairs with how hot it was. Also watch out for the porch, the spider and spider webs were everywhere!

The house was very clean, beautiful home in Tacoma looks like historical neighborhood with many Victorian style homes and beautiful churches nearby. A few minute's walk to bay and a large park. It appears the VRBO app needs to be downloaded prior to trip, as that is the only way to communicate with the owner. The code provided for entry on email confirmation did not work had to reach out to VRBO to get in touch with owner since no contact information was provided on email confirmation, they provided code however the electronic entry did not work. Needless to say we were extremely frustrated with the situation since we drove 2 days to get to location. VRBO was helpful in getting us into the rental with the owner on the phone which was resolved in 20 minutes. The master bedroom toilet runs after flushing and needs to be fixed, otherwise nice rental.

Beautiful, comfy house in a great location
We were in town for a graduation at UPS and this was a perfect location. Close to the University (4-5 minute drive) and close to a nice park and great restaurants. The house is beautifully updated and very clean and comfortable. We slept well and enjoyed walking around the neighborhood. There is a fire pit in the backyard and a nice kitchen and dining area, as well. Highly recommended!

Vacation like a local
The house is lovely and has all the amenities we needed, including the laundry room. It was clean and comfortable, we had access to the thermostat and extra blankets to keep us warm in January, and the view from the upstairs windows was very nice. It's also very conveniently located close to bus stops and the T line, which you can use to get to every tourist-y thing we wanted to do in the city, as well as fantastic restaurants, like Moshi or Corina. The host was awesome and accommodating, and responded very quickly when we had questions. We hope to get to stay here again!

Great location!
This house was spacious enough to comfortably meet out needs (3 adults). It was reasonably clean and check-in was easy. The location is great for walking to restaurants and shops, quick drive to the Ruston waterfront and the train station for a day trip to Seattle. House could use a little TLC (clogged bathtub/shower drain, toilet handle sticks causing it to run, water damage stains from skylight in primary bathroom, mysterious red stains on one of the comforters and a bedroom rug, etc). These issues didn't affect our stay, but we appreciate accommodations with a little more attention to detail.

Overall the house was good. The location was perfect for us. Enjoyed the local restaurants, both walkable. Parking was easy. Lounge seating was limited with just one couch and one chair, anymore than 3 people would be an issue. Other than that everything else was good.

Central Location
Great location overall. The location was clean and not cluttered. Easy to check in and the owner was accommodating for an early check in. We would stay again.
A few things that are helpful to be aware of. It is an older home so smells crept in so every so often it would smell like weed like it did outside. Depending on who you are with it is good to know about this. Homelessness is high in Tacoma so we did not park in the back as there were some homeless individuals camping in the back alley. Once we parked in front we felt much safer.

Family weekend
Perfect house to visit with our adult daughter and spend a few nights … no complaints!
This was a very nice home in a Wonderful neighborhood close to the waterfront, downtown, and the University of Puget Sound where we attended graduation.
The house was great for our family to stay in to celebrate our Daughter’s graduation!
Unfortunately, while the listing said it was pet friendly (which is absolutely on me for booking the property) there was cat hair under beds, and the house would have been perfect if it was thoroughly deep cleaned.
Several family members experienced allergies in the house, and I even paid for a hotel room for the last two nights of the stay due to extreme allergies.
We have a cat, that is indoor/outdoor and I have never had such an allergic reaction, as did other family members.
The host was very responsive and helpful.
Please just note that if you have dog or cat allergies, this property isn’t ideal.

A perfect place to stay when visiting my son and daughter in law who just moved to Tacoma. Close to the train and easy access
To Seattle for sightseeing and getting to the Seahawks and Commanders game. Cozy, well equipped house and all three bedrooms with comfortable beds and bedding. Hope to be able to stay here next time we visit.
