Scott from Illinois stayed in one of my two units for six months while working as
a satellite specialist sub-contractor from February 2009 through the first week
of October, 2009.

He told me he really like the condo and wished his company did not move him
into their own housing and he could stay here. He loved the neighborhood and
still visits the local restaurants regularly.

Last year we said this: We absolutely loved our one week stay in the condo - it was so clean that it didn't seem that anyone else had ever stayed there. Comfortable, beautiful, convenient - we couldn't ask for anything more. We definitely hope to return.
This year we were able to return for a whole month! It was every bit as nice as we remembered. We love the apartment, we love being in downtown Tacoma. Hope to make it an annual event.
  Ron Patterson, Naples, Florida

Homeowner Response:
The highlight of the Patterson's tri[p was that Ron is a pastor and married me and my long time boyfriend, Marty. It was a beautiful service on a sun-filled day with a view of the water - truly a wonderful
experience to share with them and tremendously generous of them to do for
us.

We were recently displaced from our home temporarily. We stayed for alomost two weeks in January. The conveniance of being downtown near the sight for working was conveniant, but the warmth and comfort of Laura's place was amazing. It was so roomy, and beautifully decorated. We had absolutely everything we needed. We were able to cook, and use our computer, so that we did not lose traction on our project. It has two entrances and parking, and is very close to nice restaurants. Laura thinks of everything. She even cross promotes with local businesses so that dining shopping and even going to the salon is very conveniant and affordable for guests. If you are staying in Tacoma for multiple nights, forget the hotel, and stay here, you'll feel like you are at home.

Dr. Gary LaSalle from Maine rented my condo for five months (February 2008
through July 2008) while working at a hospital temporarily in Olympia, WA.
Dr.LaSalle told me that my property was the nicest condo he had ever stayed in.
Dr. La Salle was a pleasure to have as a guest for his extended stay.

We just left this wonderful place and we could not have had a better time. The apartment is beautiful, quiet and very comfortable. Laura is a great host. She is full of information and very easy going. We highly recommend this place!

We just returned from a month's stay in this wonderful condo and can't wait to schedule our next trip. It far exceeded our expectations in almost every way! The location provided easy access to everything from museums and restaurants to beaches and festivals. We loved going for a walk each morning on our way to one of the many local coffee shops. And, the unit itself was just beautiful - modern conveniences with antique charm. As former Washington residents, we have family and friends living in the area and it was such a treat to be able to entertain them for a change. We were eager to show off our beautiful home away from home. Thanks, Laura, for a wonderful month in beautiful downtown Tacoma.

I am entering this comment for my guests that left June 17th. The P's were very happy with their stay and actually asked to stay longer than their reservation. I was sad that I could not accommodate their request because I had guests coming the day after their departure. They said they plan on coming back several times for upcoming family weddings.

We had a delightful time. Everything was perfect. The condo itself was spectacular--a beautiful and tasteful restoration. All of the extra touches were amazing--beautiful artwork, a bottle of wine, good coffee and chocolate. What more could you ask for? The location was great--downtown and close to UPS where we attended my daughter's graduation with great restaurants less than a block away. Laura was a wonderful host--going way beyond what you would expect--offering privacy but available when needed. I would definitely recommend this vacation rental and will undoubtedly return myself if my daughter stays in the area.

It's all true. I stayed here five months during a business engagement, after spending several unsatisfying weeks in various area hotels. Extremely comfortable, elegantly furnished, cordial and caring hosts (Laura and Marty). Off-street parking, washer/dryer and fully-appointed kitchen were important to me. If business or pleasure takes you anywhere near Tacoma, this is the place to stay!

My husband and I stayed here with our dogs for a month while we were between homes. Laura's vacation rental is nice and quiet, very private and so thoughtfully set up. It is perfectly located within walking distance to several local restaurants and pubs. And only half a block from Fireman's Park for walking the dogs. We couldn't have asked for more.

The apartment is tasteful, private, convenient and comfortable. We really enjoyed our time in Tacoma. The owners are gracious. Coming "home" to this spot was a pleasure. We will recommend it to friends.

We found the condo to be perfect for our needs during our stay in Tacoma. It is ideally located, beautifully furnished, and very nicely done. The artwork is beautiful. Laura and Marty were both very helpful and readily accessible. We would highly recommend this condo to anyone looking for a place to stay during their visit to the Seattle area.

I rented this condo for my parents who were here visiting from Mexico for a week. They loved the place! It is beautiful inside, and the artwork was a bonus! They enjoyed walking to the farmer's market, a variety of eating establishments downtown, and to Fireman's Park. They also said the bed was very comfortable, and it was nice and quiet. I am sure they would be happy to stay here again and again! Thanks!

I am entering this comment for Barbara K., who stayed in our condo for two weeks over Christmas and New Year's. Before she left I asked her how everything was and to let us know what we could improve upon.

Barbara said "It was wonderful. I'm going to tell all my friends and my brother."

Barbara also said that she enjoyed the wine bar (Vin Grotto) downstairs and will spread a good word about Kris' (wine bar owner) business as well. She also said that she will be back in Spring.

Barbara was a very nice woman; I appreciated her feedback and look forward to her staying with us again.

Our family had a really nice stay at the condo. The condo was well equipped and in many instances, it had more than our own home! The place was well decorated with art works by the friendly and helpful condo owners. We will definitely stay here again next time we are in the area.
