My husband and I booked a room in this hotel for one night in the summer. First of all, when we had to put down a $15 deposit just to use the TVs remote control, it completely put me off! Everything else seemed okay, but the next morning the hot water wouldn't work! We called the front desk and all... more

This hotel is shabby and definitiely has a lot of rough people around. My buddy and I have stayed here many times when we want to party. It is cheap and the private entrances on the ground floor make it easy to come and go. The deposit for the keycard and remotes is a little irritating but you do get... more

I would like to say that my version of this hotel is totally different. I havestayed there on numerous occasions during the last three years. I have not found the previous reviews to be accurate. Yes, the hotel has been going through a growth and remodelling time. BUT now it is a very nice place to stay. I have found... more

Overall, the staff was rude and the room was icky. The bedding was thin, the room was freezing, and there were cigarette burns in the carpet. My fiance and I booked the room for 3 nights through Orbitz at a very low rate. We checked in on friday and on sunday the front desk called our room and said "so... more

This hotel is located near the airport in an industrial area (as are the other "name" hotels near the airport) - but at $40.00 per night, the cost was truly a bargain! This is a renovated motor hotel, concrete construction with on-site restaurant and lounge. I stayed here for 13 nights. The problems with this facility occur on Friday and... more

I made this reservation online, and it says on the orbitz website that the amount is not taken off of your credit card, so my mother put it on her card and we were all going to pay her cash upon arrival. When we got there, the desk attendant was extremely rude. She told us that our card was already... more

I'm not a complainer but this is definitely an exception! When I arrived to check in, I had to wait almost 25 minutes and there were only 2 people in front of me. The frontdesk person was a few days new and still didn't know how to check someone in. Also he spoke very poor english and would walk away... more

Staff was extremely rude and unaccomodating. You have to put 30.00$ down for every key to your room. I do not reccommend this place. It is also in a very shabby, rough, part of downtown Winnipeg. more
