I had an absolutely perfect stay at Alison's. Alison was quick to reply and accommodating of an early flight I had. From the moment I walked in I felt like I was home. Alison's place is sparkling clean and welcoming, but it was the little touches that made it such a special stay- like the charming old-world feel of the clawfoot bathtub, plants in every room, electric fireplace/heaters, down stuffed pillows, a beautiful view of the treetops from the bedroom window, armchairs set up to work/read in, and a fully appointed kitchen. Coming from New York without a car I had no problem getting around- mostly everywhere I wanted to be was either a walk or a short cab ride away. Wolseley is such a charming neighborhood- definitely walk up to Stella's bakery for a pastry treat in the morning! Aside from trying some really good restaurants that have popped up in Winnipeg one of my favorite dinner plans was grabbing some cheese and chacuterie from DeLuca's down the street and a bottle of wine from the Forks market and having a night in. Truly a pleasure just to hang out and read and have a cup of coffee on the sofa. Take Alison up on her offer to check out her candle studio out back, so cool! I'll definitely stay next time I'm in town and wholeheartedly recommend her place! Thanks Alison for everything!
