Great stay!
I hate to leave a positive review for places I really enjoy because I want it to be available in the future when I need it, but the property deserves a positive review.
My wife and I were in town to visit our daughter, who lives about two blocks from this unit, so the location was perfect for us. But more than being convenient to our daughter, the unit is convenient to restaurants, stores, bars, etc. in a very desirable area of Winnipeg.
The unit itself was very comfortable and well-appointed. There was little clutter, and some very useful add-ons, such as a Keurig coffeemaker, washer and dryer, and TV with several streaming options.
One add-on was invaluable for us: a multi-port charging cable was absolutely a lifesaver for me. I'd forgotten the charging cable for my hearing aids, and the charger thankfully plugged into the charging unit. I couldn't have been more relieved.
Also, the manager was very patient with us when it turns out we were parked in the wrong spot for two nights. To be fair, the spot was not well marked, and we chose wrong because we arrived at 11:00 p.m., the area was not well-lit, and it was the day after a big snow storm so everything was covered with snow and ice. We ended up parking at the wrong building--a building that was identical to the one we were staying in. We were so fortunate that the manager tracked us down and told us about our mistake. More importantly, the people whose spot we took were SO patient, leaving a note on our car (which we didn't see for two days because we didn't travel anywhere) and somehow contacting the manager, who then contacted us. They could have simply called the towing company, which would have ruined our trip, but instead were so patient and kind.
The unit is very well laid out: tastefully decorated and spacious with lots of light from the two walls of windows. The bedroom was spacious with a wonderful closet that provided plenty of space for luggage, clothes, etc. The bed is spacious but hard. I think it's a memory-foam mattress that sinks in a little after you lie on it. It's high quality--just not the type I would buy.
The bathroom was fine. The drains were a little slow, but otherwise, the towels were wonderfully soft, and there was bath gel and shampoo/conditioner provided.
The living room furniture was comfortable and very functional.
The only downside is that the ceiling/floor insulation is very thin so you can hear the upstairs tenant walking around.
