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.

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!

Loved the cozy home atmosphere! Very quiet, clean and safe. Great experience. Needs to have food actually available to eat. There was cereal but no milk, coffee but no cream, no protein items. Needs milk, eggs, coffee, coffee creamer, cold ceral, bagles, almond butter (because peanut is a bog allergy), orange juice and bananas available as just a basic breakfast.

2/10 Poor

I paid in advance and when we got there we were told by an exceptionally rude woman that she had double booked the room and we wouldn't be able to stay there. She then lied by saying she would phone Expedia and arrange alternative accommodation, this didn't happen. I see with the more recent reviews this is becoming quite a habit for this place, it looks like it's a scale to me. Luckily Expedia were very good and refunded us very quickly.

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…

Property owners was nice to begin with, was having sex above room. When I contacted them at 230am they read the message but did not respond. Around 7am they was moving again slamming doors as they left the house. breakfast food was expired and moldy beyond belief. When I approached her about the situations her got aggressive and defensive. Never again will I do a home stay! Thought it’d be fun and something new and turned out to be a nightmare! If I could post pics I would!!!! It was terrible

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

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.
