Jungle House Urban Lofts – Arena District & Short North

The property met my needs. It was clean and nicely decorated. The snacks and coffee maker were appreciated. The rental is lacking clothes hanging space. It had one shallow depth closet. I rented to attend a wedding, so lack of hanging space was inconvenient for my formal attire. The rental has one bathroom, downstairs, not ideal for a 68-year old who needs to go at night. Additionally the storm door was partially off the hinges. The property manager said they would send someone to repair it, but it did not get repaired during my 3-night stay. Overall, the property was conveniently located and the bed was comfortable.

Arrived on Sunday night and drove around for about 10 mins trying to find said “readily available” parking. Luckily there was a parking garage that’s charges $20 per 10 hrs (so diff on hourly) in the middle of a storm I had to lug my bags down a block to the house, which luckily was easy to find as it was on a closed street. Has an auto lock and nest thermostat, night lights throughout. Black out curtains. Nice shared backyard. There is noise on the weekends I imagine, based off Sunday PM/AM hours. The entrance inside smelled like urine??? However, the place was very nicely decorated and there was dishware to cook and eat off. Water pitcher filter as well. Coffee by the pot/cup. The bedrooms were very nicely decorated as well. Bed was comfortable no complaints, the dim lighting on the stairs was a bit of a pain if you’re one with glasses or struggle in depth perception as the stairs are stained a dark color. Possible loose board on the lower step?? The bathroom was finicky to flush and however, a happy medium was found to keep the water in the reservoir. It did its job. Rainfall head was a nice detail to keep up with the jungle theme. Towels were readily available throughout the stay in rooms. Very unique details, all jungle themed. Especially the rain noises, myself not a huge fan just at the time I arrived in a dark house. There is a hole in the step to get to the entrance of the patio, so be careful if you have a toddler or use a cane.

Just a nice place in general.

Property was close to everything we planned for the weekend. The place exceeded my expectations. Very clean and had everything we needed to make our stay top notch! Will book with the host every time we go to Columbus!
