Jungle House Luxury Stays - Downtown Columbus & Short North
Fantastic location and value! Within walking distance from downtown and OSU campus (right between), just on the edge of Victorian Village and practically across the street from Goodall park! Very clean. A little noisy at night however from busy street.
