This hotel is getting older, it is not in the best place in the city. Parking is my big complaint. We were not told that parking had to be paid for. If you left your vehicle parked all day the cost .....

For the price and star level I chose, I felt it was a really bad selection. I stayed at Place Louis Riel hotel, and their rooms are exquisite, they should not be a 3 star hotel, they should be 3.5 .....

On my second day I used the elevator from the parking garage to the hotel and I got trapped for over an hour by myself with no phone in the elevator. Then when the doors finally opened there was not .....

Hotel is close to everything downtown. Parking is $10/day on top of the price you pay for the room. The room was decent, but not up to par with a Hampton Inn or Mariott. Definitely a 2-star hotel .....

It is located above the Winnipeg bus terminal, when you've finished paying your $9 parking fee for sketchy, unmonitored parking, you must walk past all sorts of interesting people in search of the .....

When we arrived, check in was fast and easy. They offered valet parking which was important to me as I have a handicap. The manager was the only one who knew how to drive a standard so if he .....

Negatives: Their valet service was good only if you drove an automatic car and with me having a handicap it was difficult because parking was far away.

As a experienced business traveler I have stayed in some very nice Holiday Inns and this one is only just adequate. It's locations what saved the day.

Our hotel experience was horrible, expired permits, noise and lack of customer relations! They put us in a loud room, we heard sirens all night and that woke up our baby, which in any case we got no .....

The rooms were not that clean, no towels at the pool area, staff. None on hand, paid for breakfast and did not receive any. Kitchen was closed and to top it off, we had no heat in our room. The .....

The hotel met my expectations but did not exceed them. I would say the hotel is closer to a 2.5 star than a 3.5. The hotel is linked to a bus stop, but it is in walking distance to a nice downtown .....

If you stay in the hotel at night you feel safe, but you get the impression that you do not want to be out at night. The location next to the greyhound bus terminal seems to bring a different mix of .....
