We appreciated the beauty of the location. We weren’t there a whole lot because of the activities we were involved in. There should be bed pillows added. We made the pillows that were there for the bedding work but there should be pillows that would make the bed more comfortable.

Scenic spot! The water view is spectacular and the sunsets were fabulous. After a busy day of walking at the Tacoma Historic Home Tour, we loved relaxing with a beverage and having quiet time. The neighborhood is friendly and quiet.The spacious daylight basement area was perfect.My companion and I enjoyed the cleanliness of the space. We stayed for two nights.I would suggest purchasing a couple of new bed pillows. The existing bed pillows were rather hard & flat. We made do-I brought over a couple of pillows & cases I use at my daughter’s home.Another minor recommendation would be to purchase a bit more substantial corkscrew for wine. We would stay here again. Location is convenient to Trader Joe’s & drive through Starbucks. There’s also Safeway & Home Goods in the same spot.Thank you for opening up this lovely and scenic space for travelers.

This was a perfect spot for us —excellent location, an amazing view, and clean as a whistle, Nice quiet neighborhood. Rather sparsely appointed but comfortable. However, the listing as “entire home” is misleading, be prepared for a daylight basement accessed via very steep stairs sans handrail. Knowing what to expect, we’d like to return.
An amazing view from the cozy patio
