514 Jump Indoors or House of Bounce???

I have to be honest I have never been to either. But when I started asking around with all the local mom's in and out of my mom's group( for play dates) Not one had a bad thing to say about House Of Bounce, wasn't the same for 514 Jump.I have heard more bads then good about 514 jump. I heard such great things about HOuse of Bounce I am having my girls' party there next Wed the 11th. I went by there and the staff was so great and helpful. Their attention to the kids and adults was great. They answered all my questions, showed me around and was just great. In the end I would say go with your gut feelings,I would go talk to both of the places staff memebers. Everyone is different and it depends on how you want his party done. I do wish you luck and if you would like I will be more then happy to share how our party goes.

I haven't been to either. I originally posted thinking I had been to 514 Jump, but I confused it with Ready, Set, Jump. There are just so many of these places lol

House of Bounce is good but 514 Jump seemed to be nicer, at least to me. But unless if you are military, House of Bounce has a better deal ($5 for 2 hours as to 514--$5 for one hour but military gets second hour free)And prices may be a bit off...I remember one or the other being $5.50 but could be wrong on that one.
As for Birthdays, I didnt like how House of Bounce did it but then again Im old fashioned and enjoy doing most things for my sons birthday. First hour was play, second hour was NO play and just eating, gifts, cake, and leaving. Felt like a herd of cattle being driven to one thing to the next so to speak. But that was before they moved next door too..could have changed since then.
Never attended a Bday party at 514 Jump..

I haven't actually been to either, but I have rented jump castles for our "at home parties" from 514 Jump and have always been completely satisfied. :)

Hey K. i have heard good and bad about 514 jump I know that a few people said their parties are not as good but i can tell you that you wont be disappointed at the house of bounce not only do i work there but i know that you will recieve the best party you can have especially if you are the last party of the night you can go back out and jump after you are done in the party room but you know you have to choose what is best for you and if you book in the pirate room and it is on a saturday you will probably have me work your childs party and i would definitely make sure everything is done to your satisfaction you can ask for R. and they will make sure i work your party have a nice day. I cant really say that i know what 514 jump is like because i have never been there but i have had heard both good and bad about the place i hope this helps

I have been to both numerous times.

HOB I like for my children because you can be in the middle and see 90% of the activity. We usually go into the toddler room and my daughter (2) can do all of the activities. My son (3) is still very challenged. I have had 2 parties there. I do like the fact that you have your own private party room. The staff is very attentive. They know my children and I by name.

514 I do like because it is more challenging for the kids. However there are a few activities that my 3 old has alot of difficulty with. I haven't been to party there yet but from what I understand (I may be incorrect) you do not have a private room. You have a private section. The kids can see the other kids jumping and having fun while they are eating / opening presents.

I been to the new place CelebrationTowne once. So far I was impressed. I saw their party room and it like HOBs, private. It is very open. The only thing I did not like is they have arcade type games in the bounce area.
