The property was a great location and overall an excellent experience. We did have an issue with getting in one evening, but were able to contact management who were able to quickly resolve the situation!

Mansion Fun
Very historic with modern touches. The piano is a bonus. Stevie is a wonderful host. The view from the fourth floor is amazing. Left completely relaxed.

Great Location
Just down the street from Mcmenamins and the theaters. The air conditioning is difficult to operate. But it worked. Nice to have a balcony

A really nice place to stay
My wife, son and I really enjoyed staying at the Blackwell Mansion. It's it a great location. We walked to a couple of excellent restaurants and took the streetcar to the Tacoma Dome. It was super easy to check in and the property was very clean. I highly recommend staying at the property.

Fantastic Place
This old mansion was a perfect out of the ordinary place to stay! It is a beautiful old house, it had all kinds of room and great views. It is in a perfect spot close to restaurants, a great little grocery store and Wright Park, also the T line stop is right by the house for getting around without having to drive or Uber. It had everything you need and I love the piano.

Excellent stay for a conference!
A group of 3 were attending a conference in Tacoma and this was the perfect place for us to stay. We arrived at different times and on different days, but it was easy for each of us to access the apartment. It's an open floorplan with plenty of space to spread out.

Very cool place
This place was awesome, views are stunning! It's big enough we could have had another couple with us. The travel crib being there was nice too. We stayed because it was close to the dragon boat festival but I'm glad we had some extra time to just hang out here.
