Darling, clean and comfortable!
Andrew was very easy to communicate with and always very accommodating. His home is VERY clean, comfortable and decorated very nicely. For a smaller home there is great use of the space. It never felt small. He has everything you could possible want stocked in the home. My only suggestion would be to change the description of the beds from twin size to the size that they are which is full size beds. I would hate for people to pass on renting this beautiful home because of the bed size when it actually has two full size beds and a sleeper couch. Thank you Andrew for making our stay so very comfortable during our trip to Tacoma, WA. Appreciate your hospitality! Portland renter 2/15/2025
