First thing we noticed when we opened the door was that it smelled clean and nice, and that did in fact reflect the condition of the apartment. Everything was perfect, comfy and welcoming. Bowl of Turtles was a nice bonus! And Lorraine is a great hostess; even came out in flip flops at minus 25 degrees to say hello! Highly recommend, and it will be our place whenever we return to Winnipeg/St. Boniface.
