Apartment was very clean and well supplied with necessities which we don't want to carry around while travelling (spices, coffee, pops and juices etc... for the kitchen and shaving cream, toothpaste, etc... for the bathroom). That was an pleasant surprise!
The neighborhood is great and location is far enough from Downtown but not too far on the north side of St Vital, ie close to St Boniface. Lots of things to do in Winnipeg. We were all surprised that this city has a lot more to offer than we originally thought!
