The INN at Gig Harbor

10/10 Excellent

"We so enjoyed our stay at The Inn at Gig Harbor. The room was AMAZING and accommodated us well with two king beds. The layout of the room was perfect and we appreciated the extra space. The morning breakfast was very good and the staff there were so kind and helpful. I would definitely recommend a stay at this hotel when in the area."

Hotel Murano

8/10 Good

"Was ther for business, clean rooms, good breakfast in the diner."

Walk to the waterfront The Cozy Cottage

8/10 Good

"The cozy cottage is the perfect place to stay for 1-2 people when visiting the Ruston area in Tacoma. There’s a small convenience store a couple blocks away with coffee, beers, etc. Wifi on site was fast and easy to connect to (once we did a little troubleshooting). Towels and basic toiletries are provided as well as dishes, a Brita water filter, and Keurig coffee maker. The bed is comfy, but the bedroom does get warm in the summer. There’s a large fan in the bedroom to keep cool. Overall, I would recommend this place of looking for a place to stay in Ruston / Tacoma."

Walk to the waterfront The Hobbit House

10/10 Excellent

"It was quiet and quaint, very homey. The communication from the host was impeccable. We'll be a return guest, for sure!"
