Amy was a wonderful host and the check in process extremely easy. She was very quick to answer questions and tend to any needs. The house was very clean which is important to me and my room was cozy. Just note you have to share the bathroom with other guests but it wasn’t a problem at all.

Before you book, understand you will be staying with other tenants. The other tenants weren’t bad at all, and the shared amenities were clean. The surrounding lawn needed to be cleaned up. The owner was very responsive as well.

Hidden Gem, Practical and Comfortable

On the road, after a 14 hour day, I stayed at the Tacoma Homestay. Clean, comfortable, and most importantly, peace and quiet. I was not disturbed by other guests nor the sound of traffic. Got a great night's sleep and left early. Did not take advantage of breakfast.

The homeowners are absolute beauties! Super hospitable and kind. The homestay is clean, smells good, and is really nicely decorated. My room was clean and tidy, the sheets smelt like fresh laundry and the bed was super comfy. Good walking distance from a lot of cute shops, pub/restaurants, and fast food. I came for a show in seattle and there was adequate transit to get to and from the show. I would highly recommend this place if you need somewhere to stay in Tacoma. For the price and the experience its definitely worth it!

Worth the price for a night

I wasnt sure what i rented until i got there and realized it was a house. I didn't have my code but they were nice about it. It is a bit confusing to find because the house was painted but you could do far worse then ending up here for the price. Nice TV but the room is small.
