Will stay again
I’ve been traveling for over 20 years. This is one of the best places I’ve stayed. Clean, quiet and had everything I needed. Holly was very responsive when I had questions. I stayed here for 3 months during a contract and will stay again if ever in town.

Best place to stay!
Holly is the best land lady you could ask for! She's very helpful when needed and gave us a huge list of recommendations of things to do in the area. My fiance and i stayed here for about 9 months and it was the perfect place for us! We always felt safe and there was enough parking in the alleyway for our two cars and if a friend came over on the weekend for the day we could fit their car in too. Honestly can't say enough good things about Holly and we would recommend this place to anyone!

Our 7 month home away from home!
My husband, 11 yr old Cockapoo, and myself lived in this cozy place for 7 months while I was on a travel assignment in Washington! We were nervous moving from Georgia to Washington and Holly made this place feel like a home away from home. We absolutely recommend this space!

Amazing Experience
I had a wonderful experience staying at this Furnished Finder property in Tacoma, WA. The location was incredibly convenientjust minutes from the hospital, which made my commute so easy. The space itself was clean, cozy, and thoughtfully furnished with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. What truly made the experience exceptional was the host. They were welcoming, responsive, and genuinely cared about making sure I had a great stay. From quick replies to check-in tips and even local recommendations, they went above and beyond. If youre a travel nurse or professional looking for a quiet, safe place near the medical district, I highly recommend this spot. Id absolutely stay here again!
