Space/amenities: What a beautiful, clean and well equipped space. I have stayed at many airbnbs, but this took the prize for the nicest staycation. From the handsome building exterior, to the beautiful loft views, to the comfortable and chic amenities, a great entertainment unit / sound system, a solid air conditioner (for the 37 degree heat warming day), keyless access, modern washer/dryer, and a fully equipped kitchen; the stay was flawless and comfy.
Communication: Nest Host was great. Honestly, im always weary when an Airbnb host defers to a non personal, corp type name, but the folks at Nest Host put me at ease. They were quick to communicate, helpful and responsive the few times I needed something, and very friendly. Thx Nest Host!
Location and safety: I felt super safe and comfortable in the building and the unit. Quiet complex, friendly neighbours.
I was surprised to not find safety-related comment’s more generally about the area. Personally, I was uncertain about Winnipeg, as I had heard multiple takes. That said, my experience was that the condo was in a quiet (not eery) location just a five minute walk west of the beautiful river. In my experience, the exchange district and downtown were spotty, but safe for the most part.
There are a lot of great, diverse food/tapas options in and around the area. In general, I only ventured west/south-West of Main Street a few times for food or drinks - mainly I stayed east / north (the forks) of the Airbnb. Heard great things about Osborne and Corydon tho.
