This place had everything; free washer and dryer use, kitchenette with everything I needed, tv with Netflix, dining area, living room, washroom with great amenities (facial cleanser, body wash, shampoo and conditioner), and comfortable bed with room darkening shades to get a good nights sleep. There was a desk and chair in the room, a closet, and a space heater to combat the Winnipeg cold. The door could be locked from the inside. The space in the basement was shared but was kept clean and well stocked. The main floor was occupied by the host family. Through the night the house was very peaceful and quiet. The only time I heard voices or movement upstairs was around 7AM when they were preparing for the day, and in the evening when they were home. Street parking was not a problem and my vehicle was safe in the residential neighborhood. There was evidence of the record snow they had been having but the walkway to the entrance was cleared and safe to get in and out of the house. Though the stay is in the basement, it is basically a daylight basement so only a half staircase down. It was not difficult to carry a large suitcase that short distance. Overall, Olu is a 5 star host and I would not hesitate to stay here again.
