We had a great week staying with family for the holidays. The condo was bright, spacious, and clean. We especially enjoyed gathering around the dining table with family for holiday meals then removing the top to play pool after dinner. The roof deck was a nice place to hang out as well. The host was very responsive. The location was convenient, a short drive to good restaurants, museums, and parks.

We had a group of 10 friends and this was one of only a few spots we could find that had 10 individual beds. The main floor with kitchen and living room and the rooftop were great spaces to hang out in the evenings. The beds were very comfortable. We were a quick uber ride from anything we wanted to do downtown.

Urban Jungle Retreat in the HTX Skyline (Fourth Ward Area) was an incredible stay, easily a 5 out of 5 experience. The layout was perfect for a large group, with sleeping spaces across four floors that gave everyone privacy while still feeling connected.The location is unbeatable. Restaurants, coffee shops, and convenience stores are all within walking distance, making accessibility off the charts.The neighborhood is a great mix of original Houston homes full of character alongside newer high end homes, condos, and apartments. The area has a rich history with markers highlighting its colorful past and is clearly on the rise. We never once felt hesitant walking around and highly recommend exploring the surrounding blocks to experience local culture.Inside, the house has tons of personality. The artwork, wallpaper, and design gave it a unique style our group loved, and the downtown Houston views were a huge bonus.Communication with the host was next level. Everything was clearly explained ahead of time, including the garage, shared driveway, and residential ordinance expectations.Check in and check out were smooth and easy, and Ubers had no trouble finding the home.The multi-use game and dining setup was clutch, and the kitchen island with the gas cooktop became a central hangout spot when it rained.Highly recommend and would absolutely stay again.

Birthday weekend

The property is beautiful. It offers a lot to a larger group as you can venture up and down the property. We had a dinner that was definitely enjoyed. Half my family karaoke on the second floor while some hung out on the roof top relaxing enjoying the air and city skyline. The rooms are good size and comfortable. Overall it is a really good place to stay, if in Houston on vacation.

The property was as described. Sleeping quarters quite compact but it worked out. The property was located close to all of our weekend events which was a plus. The property manager responded quickly when I had questions, would stay here again.
