Tacoma has some great museums, and the waterfront out by Old Town is really nice, but for just a quick evening stay, I would definitely pick Gig Harbor. If you get lucky with a clear sunset, the view of Mt Rainier is unbeatable.

Thanks, have a place booked in gig harbor and one in olympia, wasn't sure which one to go with.

Downtown GH (i.e., down by the water)? Cuz that’s the place to be.

It's the bestwestern, not super close to the water, but couldn't find one closer

Oh that’s pretty close… could easily walk down from there. Enjoy!
