"The communication was exceptional; I received prompt responses both prior to my trip and upon arrival. The property itself, though small, was impeccably clean and perfectly suited for two people who appreciate life's simple pleasures. Its size was accurately described in the listing. Despite its proximity to the airport, we were pleasantly surprised by the absence of any disturbance from passing planes. Overall, it was a delightful experience that exceeded our expectations."

"We enjoyed our stay. The house is near the airport so airplane noise was significant, especially noticed in the master bedroom in the late evening and early morning. The kitchen was reasonably well stocked. There were 9 of us and it would have been nice to have a larger table that could have seated all of us. The hot tub was enjoyable. The view is lovely. Be aware that there are only two showers and one has no door as"

"I got sent up last minute to Gig Harbor for work. Quickly learned there aren’t many hotels around. Wow was that a blessing in disguise. Found this boat and said, “yep, I’m in.” Literally the best work trip I’ve her had. The boat was roomy and comfortable. The harbor is phenomenal and beautiful. All but one afternoon there was a bald eagle flying really close by. Every morning walking out on the stern and smelling the water was awesome. To top it off the shower was hot, the bed was warm,...

Hotel Murano

Hotel Murano

5/5 Excellent
"The Murano hotel is conveniently located in downtown Tacoma in walking distance from the museums we wanted to visit. The interior of the hotel is beautiful and decorated with glass art. The only downside was that only 1 out of 6 EV chargers on the parking lot was for non-Tesla vehicles. And that place was taken by a car which was finished charging but the owner didn’t bother to free the parking space. I wish the administration of the hotel would monitor such situations."
