We worried about the safety of our car out on the street, and looking back, the advertisements didn't represent the true nature of the site. We left a night early as we didn't like the air quality or sharing the 1 bathroom.

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!

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.

Room was roomy and comfortable. The bed was great! Bathroom was shared, but clean. The only drawback was the smell of cigarette smoke, specially in the bathroom.

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.

Found out at the very last minute that this property was actually not available, contacted support just for them to tell me that they could refund me(which would take 7 business days) and that was it. Absolutely atrocious treatment.

They overbooked (which I don't think was their fault). The poor girl who runs the house was very nice but seems very inexperienced. There were dirty dishes with dried up food on the countertops when we arrived (10pm). There were people there that she seemed to know, smoking weed outside in the their car and then came I'm to watch TV with her. I did not feel comfortable there, so I gave my room to the other couple and left. She did not know how to process the refund to me, but we figured something out. I truly hope they figure out how to make a more hospitable experience for their guests so they can be successful with their Bed and Breakfast.
