We were visiting for a wedding and this condo had everything we needed. Only hiccup we had was the hot water stopped working but the property manager promptly got it fixed within a day. It's a beautiful location and has easy access to anything in Tacoma. Highly recommend!

We have nothing but good things to say about this place. The location was excellent ... very close to the water and to Puget Sound University if you are visiting the college. Our teen walked to the coffee shop down the hill each morning. The neighborhood is very safe. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms are nice and large. We also really appreciated the coffee and creamer. Another bonus ... we had forgotten a few items (like toothpaste) and they had a bunch of toiletries that we could use ... thank you so much!

The property was as advertised. The kitchen was reasonably complete. The neighborhood was quiet, with two coffee shops down the hill from the house. (Note: the house had a Mr Coffee, French press, and Kuric (or however it is spelled).) It was interesting to see the ship come down the Puget Sound from Seattle and into the Tacoma harbor.

Gorgeous decor, comfortable bedding and a designer kitchen; a winning combination for this large upscale multiplex in scenic North Tacoma. Had one minor maintenance issue that was quickly addressed. I highly recommend.

We were so pleased to have chosen this property for our long weekend getaway. It was everything we hoped it would be and it was exactly as advertised. The view was spectacular, the neighborhood was fantastic, the parking was easy, the property was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The property managers were friendly and available if/when we had questions. We have already discussed booking this property again the next time we're in Tacoma; you really can't go wrong with this one.

My sister & I stayed over a long weekend & would definitely stay again. This is a great location with a superb view of Puget Sound. There's easy access to restaurants downtown and along the waterfront, and Old Town is a really beautiful area. The apartment is very well set up and beautifully clean. The owner is also very helpful and responsive.

We had a wonderful stay and the home was everything we expected and more- we will definitely be staying here again and would recommend it to anyone wanting a clean, comfortable, and roomy place. We are from the area, and were in town with family for a family wedding- the accommodations really can’t be beat and were perfect for our needs. We enjoyed the comfortable king sized bed with the en-suite bath in the primary and our kids and grandchildren had their own space in the secondary bedroom with a private bath. And- the powder bath was perfect if you didn’t want to disturb those who go to bed a bit early, while you enjoy a late night movie in the living room where you have plenty of comfortable space !!!

This property was simply perfect for our gathering with friends in Tacoma. The bay window view was just beautiful, having multiple bathrooms provided privacy and comfort for multiple guests and street parking was ample..never had a problem parking right in front of the home. The house is on a rather busy street, and you could hear the traffic a bit, but we never found it to be distracting. The kitchen was well appointed. We loved being able to walk to coffee shops and a great little bar/restaurant just blocks away We were so happy with this property and would absolutely stay again. It’s one of the best properties we’ve rented through vrbo/Airbnb.

This property is in a great location. The view of the sound is amazing. We enjoyed morning walks in the neighborhood and visiting the coffee shops. Ruston Way is a great walk. The harbor seals are so fun to watch. We enjoyed day trips to Mt Rainier, Northern Cascades, Seattle, and the northern peninsula. Also enjoyed a day trip to Vashon Island . The shops in Procter District are convenient. The Safeway offers many meal options. The house is well stocked and made our trip very enjoyable. I can't wait for my next trip to the PNW!

We spent a month in the condo, which is clean, nicely appointed, comfortable. It is open & bright, and has a great view of Commencement Bay. We watched the 4th of July fireworks from the front window! There are serious stairs to the condo from either the front or the back, definitely not for anyone who has trouble navigating stairs. The road in front of the condo is constantly busy, so much so that we found it difficult to enjoy the outdoor space because of the steady road noise. It is quiet inside, thanks to the air conditioning. The lawn definitely needs work, nothing but weeds in front. The kitchen is well stocked & it’s pleasant to be able to cook & talk to family or guests. The hosts were very responsive to a couple of things that we needed to have done. Great location - close to the Proctor District, great grocery stores, Ruston Waterfront, Point Defiance, and downtown Tacoma.

I stayed at this property with some friends and we all enjoyed the weekend there. The place was clean, well kept up, and just the right amount of room for all of us. Great location to get to downtown Tacoma, Point Ruston, Cheney Stadium, breweries, or other nearby events. And the view of the sound was a very welcomed bonus.

Spacious 2 bed, 2 bath apartment in a great location and the view.... amazing! I miss it already! Aside from a little misprint on our arrival email for which unit we were in, it was a perfect stay. Luckily, the owners were quick to respond and resolve the confusion! The unit was very clean and had a great layout so you could take in the view from anywhere in the living room & kitchen. There were only 2 coffee cups and with 3 of us staying, it made for a rush to the coffee pot in the morning. It has everything you need to cook though. We loved the rain shower in the master bathroom and the table & chairs at the front of the complex. Perfect for coffee in the morning & wine in the evenings. The road it’s on is pretty busy all the time and being on a hill, cars are really stepping on the gas to get up it. I grabbed some ear plugs after the first night. Maybe a box fan would help too! We were in town for the USGA Four Ball Amateur Golf event at Chamber’s Bay which was about a 25 minute drive. Amazing course with a walking trail that overlooks it. Definitely worth checking out while you’re there! We even spotted some whales! Point Defiance Park is only about 10 minutes away and was great for the views and hiking. You can walk it or drive through on 5 Mile Drive Road. We spotted some seals and bald eagles on the point! Duke’s on Ruston Way has amazing Dunegous Crab Havarti Dip, it’s a must visit! You’re also about a 45 minute drive to Seattle’s Pike’s Market. We definitely recommend and will stay again when we come back! We loved Washington!
