2/10 Poor

Know before you book
Room: I stayed in the "comfort" room on the top floor. The room smelled bad and was cramped. It had a low and slanted ceiling so I couldn't use half the room and I am not very tall. The restroom made the bedroom feel like a penthouse suite. An average adult wouldn't be able to standup straight. No hand or bath towels were provided. There is a larger restroom on the first floor, which has a shower. Host: She was supposed to send me the access code to enter the house but i never received it. She didn't pick up my call so i asked my gf to contact her before i boarded the flight. Host texted her links to a digital lock app. The link worked on my gf's iphone but not on my Android. The app uses Bluetooth to unlock the door so i needed it to work on my phone. I texted the host but she didn't respond. She asked my gf to let her know when i reach the property so she can unlock the door. I had booked the room for 3 nights; I ended up leaving the next day morning because the host wouldn't respond to my messages and I still didn't have an access code. Worst experience and Hotels.com refused to refund me because they couldn't also reach the host. Never coming back to this site.

I booked and paid for a room for one night. When I arrived, someone was in the room. I was told by the property manager to come back later and I will have a room. When I came back, I was told by the property manager that it was way overbooked and that she has to cancel and send me a refund. I never received the refund and and had to dispute the charge on my credit card.

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.

How it really was....
1. I had problems getting in the house when I got there because it requires a code that I never received in my email, but I was able to get the contact information by another person staying there so I could can in. 2. I booked a signature room which would have a king size bed and would be down stairs, and got a comfort room that I believe was a double bed which is upstairs I have problems climbing stairs being that I have a handicap, breakfast was stated that it would be included, but when I went down to get breakfast there was some cereal but when I opened the refrigerator I found a gallon of milk that says "NO GUEST", there was nothing else for breakfast. 3. There was no soap supplied in the bathroom upstairs to be able to wash your hands after going to the restroom and no towel. 4. It smelt of cigarettes and marijuana, and when I went down in the morning there was somebody sleeping in the living room (which is supposed to be a shared area for everybody staying there).

Definitely a 10 plus
I arrived on a Wednesday and before i even got to the property amy the owner reached out to me and welcomed me . Gave me instructions on how to get into property… once we arrived we were very impressed felt like i was staying at my family’s home … whenever i needed anything amy was super quick to answer questions or get me what i needed …. Clean linen clean bathroom … my room was upstairs, but due to my friends disability, they were more than gracious to accommodate us with the room downstairs without us even asking they went ahead and switched us rooms, which was very amazing. We are very grateful for that. They are very friendly…. You have full access to kitchen and living area …before we checked out on friday amy blessed us with her beautiful smile and thanked for our stay .. we in return thanked her hospitality and for her, opening her home to us…when i come back to Washington i will definitely not stay at any local hotels i will be staying at amy and dales homestay.. me and Chiquita give this 2 thumbs up .. we can only imagine how beautiful it is in winter time…

NOT A GOOD TIME!
I did not realize this was an Airbnb until I got to the house and I couldn’t get in. I tried and I tried and I tried to contact the Host with no luck after having to go to the bathroom badly. I left, got in touch with Hotels.com they of course could not get a hold of the host, so two hours later I finally ended in a hotel down the road with the help of Hotels.com. The host finally got back to me (AFTER i found another place to stay) and she or he told me I was being rude because of my frustration of being stuck outside with ZERO response for hours. I recommend you not not waste your time or money unless you want to be stranded outside a unkept yard waiting on a Host that never gets back in touch with you because their phone is “out of service while at work” and then you finally have to leave, You’re told your the rude one. Full disclosure I probably was rude after sitting there for two hours and not getting a response

I wouldn't do it again
My husband and I stayed on a quick one night stop on our way to the Oregon coast. Owner was kind, but I had to reach out to her to specifically get the code for the door. Upon getting there, the property is a little unkempt, and the stairway getting to the back door was a little tricky. There were other guests (or maybe owners?) in the living room watching television when we arrived and we immediately went to our room. The room looked clean and well kept, but our door wouldn't stay closed and locked, and we had to place a chair next to it so it wouldn't pop open. There was a window AC unit, but no matter what we tried it would only blow room temperature air. The shared bathroom was okay, although the toilet is very very low to the floor. When we got up in the morning a guest was sleeping on the couch, maybe a person from the night before? The breakfast was sparse, with cereal, bread, and

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!

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.

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.
