Unclean, very strong smell of marijuana, door does not lock so there is no privacy. It felt as though we were invading someone's unclean unwelcoming home.

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.

They over booked our room. Didn't tell us at all till we got there. So after a 5 hour drive, we had to drive around and find a last minute hotel. The house proprietor only informed us that the room and all other rooms were taken after calling multiple time and leaving a voice mail. Then told us to cancel the listing which would void the refund and didn't response when asked about 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.

I booked the stay but never could even get a hold of them to get it access to the property. I believe it’s a scam if you can even get in I booked elsewhere and Expedia is working on my refund. I messaged and called the property and after my fourth phone call Less than an hour away from check-in. It was just going straight to voicemail so I’m assuming it blocked me. DO NOT BOOK!!!

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!
