Overall, we had a wonderful stay at this location over a short 5 day trip with our family. It was well set up for us to bring our 6 year old and 5 month old with us, including a crib in the guest room and 2 pack & plays for more flexible usage throughout the apartment. The master shower was also fantastic for coming in on a cold, rainy day with its high pressure and dual heads. The kitchen was also well stocked in terms of equipment, including coffee machine, adjustable temperature water kettle (great for warming bottles) and a variety of pots, pans and utensils. Overall, it was plenty of space for our family and gave us the flexibility we needed for our trip. It was also within a 10 minute drive of many great places to visit (zoo, children's museum, etc) and places to eat (Wren's Bakery, Welcome Restaurant, Red Elm Cafe & Duke's Seafood). Only downside is the recycling sorting, but that's out of their control. We would stay here again if we were in the area.

Family Vacation over the 4th

This was a great location to spend our time in the Tacoma–Seattle area. We picked the spot because of its location between Seattle and Mount Rainier National Park. The house was a great size for a family of four. It was clean and fully stocked with everything we needed. We appreciated that the location is a short walk to food and coffee shops. Parking was also very easy. There is a decent amount of train and traffic noise, but if that’s not an issue for you, this is a fantastic spot.

Old Tacoma Gem

The facility was very clean and well kept. There were a lot of steps to get to it but once there it was worth climbing the steps. The view was very very nice. We had one issue with the air conditioning and it was fixed promptly. Communicating with the host was easy. We would not hesitate renting this place again.

The home is amazing. It would be even better with a sheer curtain for some privacy by the kitchen or some blinds in the living room to deflect some of the sun at 0500.

Amazing little home

This was an amazing little home. We did have an issue with the AC, but the owner was super responsive and had it fixed the next day.I will point out that this place is on a very steep hill and is on one of the main roads in the area. So the road noise is a bit more than you might expect. That said, it quiets down just after sunset and was not an issue at all. So don't be turned off when you arrive and see cars everywhere.The area is amazing and we would happily stay here again.
