Great spot and as advertised

Excellent spot with ease to many areas in downtown Tacoma. Despite confusion on my part for the check-in Michael was excellent and patient and prompt in addressing my questions.

Another perfectly amazing stay at the hobbit hole. Clean, comforting, and convenient. My last stay was in the summer and an AC unit was provided. This time, I stayed during winter and space heater was provided and TRUST me, it is enough to heat the apartment. I actually had it turned off for most of the time and would leave it on for 30min to 1hr a day and that was enough to keep the place warm.

Extraordinary stay! The only thing I have to say, is that I didn’t catch any mention about the ceilings! If you’re short like me (5’3) then you’re in the clear but the closer to the bedroom you get, the lower the ceiling becomes to about 5-6” above my head. Very clean and has everything you need for weekend away. Michael was very responsive and only had trouble checking in because of my lack of understanding how to use the Vrbo app. Highly recommend for a weekend getaway!!
