Derek is a Super host, who lives on the main floor of his basement B&B. The space is large and recently renovated, it is also super clean. Derek thoughtfully provided lots of extra things such as shampoos and conditioners, cologne and q tips , a Keurig coffee maker, lots of tea, juice, extra condiments, and a stock of fruit, chips, and snacks in the kitchen. There is not a stove or oven but it is easy to work around that using the toaster oven and microwave. There is also the use of a washer and dryer with the soap and dryer sheets . The best feature is a home theatre with a 60 inch T V and surround sound system , and a CD player with tons of CDs to choose from. The queen bed is firm and comfortable. Derek is a very friendly guy (although not intrusive) who is helpful, and someone we would like to get to know better the next time we stay at his place in Winnipeg.
