Here is the fun part. They have two rooms but may only have one room open depending on number of participants. Both rooms are identical so no loss if only one room is open. Each room has a plain square jumper with some super sized boxing gloves that little ones can hardly even pick up much less box. They have another jumper with jump space and a small slide inside. They have a jumper with a climbing cone for your real monkeys. They have the super, tall slide and an obstacle course. Plenty of space to run around, jump and have fun.
Here is the slightly dangerous part. You have a lot of kids, all ages jumping. Kids are not always cautious or wait their turn, so accidents happen. One trip, my 10 year old twisted his ankle. Another trip he slid down the slide on his elbow and rubbed/burned off his skin. The wound was larger than a quarter and took several weeks to heal. My 5 year old has never been hurt, and he is the adventurous one.
I suspect because toddlers are usually early risers, the morning crowd usually has more little ones than older ones. Lunch time and later, you will see more and more big kids.
Tip: They allow you to bring in your own snacks and drinks. They do have a vending machine for drinks in the lobby. You can order pizza, but they call a local pizza parlour for delivery so plan to wait 45 minutes for food. No food or drink are allowed in the jump area, but they have benches and a "party" room where you can eat and drink.
We still enjoy this place just be aware of the natural hazards of kids and exuberant play. Don't forget your socks.
