We stayed one night for a concert in town. It was a great place for access to High Street and Cbus. There is traffic noise but it wasn't a problem. Sound machines and other amenities are provided if you are a light sleeper.
We loved the location of this rental, next to the park and a quick walk to the Short North. Easy access and we appreciated the dedicated parking space. Thank you!

It was great
We enjoyed the clean accommodations and appreciated the “tropical environment. Sergio was very responsive to all of our questions. Perfect place to stay for going to events at Nationwide arena!
Thank you Sergio!
Host was very responsive to questions and efficient with check-in details. Definitely a great location for North High Street spots to visit. Clean, comfortable bed, and well well stocked for preparing meals if needed.
We loved the Jungle House! The property was extremely clean, the location was perfect, and it was just like the pictures! We went to a concert at Nationwide and walked with no issues!
Great place to stay. Host reached out to check on us regularly. Great neighborhood to walk around. We stayed there prior and if we have other events in Cbus we’ll book again
The place was clean and welcoming when i arrived. Bit of a glitch in not getting my door code in time for my early arrival, and then again for my late checkout (was locked out for a few minutes) but host was quick to repond. Do be aware that there are added charges for early arrival and late checkout, so this is my only complaint since there were issues with both. Otherwise, super comfortable bed, great water pressure in the shower, and lots of nice touches. Thanks for your quick responses at both the check-in and check out!
