Great stay in an amazing loft

We really enjoyed our stay in this unique loft. The loft is amazing and we loved how Martina and Bruce put so much detail in everything. The location of the loft is great and you can visit all of the attractions in Winnipeg easily. In the Exchange District you have a big opportunity to visit nice restaurants and you can learn a lot about the history of Winnipeg. We would definitely recommend staying in the Loft of Bruce and Martina and Lauren

Outstanding Host and Condo

Martina is a lovely host, who met us at check-in, and toured us through this most unique condo. It is such a beautifully appointed space. Truly unique. It was like living in an art gallery. It was also very nice to have a parking space. We would very happily stay here again.

Winnipeg Getaway

This place was amazing—beyond our expectations! Though there are plenty of places to go within walking distance, you will most likely just want to stay in and admire the art gallery/museum-like charm of this place. There’s so much to look at, yet it’s still cozy and welcoming! Our host greeted us with wine and desserts, told us about the local hotspots, and checked in with us regularly to see if we needed anything. We can’t wait to come back and stay here!!

Best place to stay near downtown winnepeg

Rhis was nothing short of a 5 star rating. Actually it should be 10. The hospitality that the hosts express is nothing short of amazing. My first time to Canada. From booking to checking out, I had ZERO worries. There was sparkling wi e and a beautiful cake for my daughter upon arrival for her birthday. Everything was supplied and best places to visit and eat. The hosts are available 24/7 during your stay and make sure that you know they are there to make your stay the most enjoyable ever! Don't stay anywhere else!!!!!

Awesome interior design

Let’s start with the basics - very clean, spacious, comfortable, very well stocked, excellent host. All five stars. But the truly amazing aspect of this unit was the absolutely incredible work they did on the interior design. Basically, they gutted an old warehouse and created an amazing living space. Warm and inviting, yet incorporating dozens of antique fixtures and features to remind you this was a very old building. We were literally amazed and totally impressed. We sent pictures to all of our family. We were also impressed what the city has done with the old Exchange District. Nice tourist district now. Good restaurants and hiking trails nearby. Overall, a very enjoyable stay.

Absolutely Perfect

We met Martina at the property, she was absolutely lovely and welcoming - complete with wine, chocolates and incredible cake! Her recommendations for restaurants were spot on and responded to my questions via text promptly. The loft was perfect - so well thought out and decorated, we needed nothing more than what was provided, they have thought of every single detail - down to an awesome variety of games. The beds were very comfortable, pillows and linens included - we are a very picky group when it comes to bedding, usually bringing our own pillows with us which just weren't needed here, everything is great quality and really comfortable The location is also perfect, we were able to walk to all of the many incredible local spots within 5-15 minutes (which was really nice to not have to drive - parking spot included too!). We would highly recommend staying here and are already looking forward to our next stay! Thank you, Martina!

Fabulous Loft

This was a great central place to stay and enjoy Winnipeg. The loft is really cute and the owner has thought of everything. Its the little things that puts this place over the top. Martina can be very involved or as little involved as you want. She researched what was going on the week we were there from concerts to plays to baseball game. They have a big map on the wall that shows the areas special interest and how to get there. Martina went over the map so we knew where to go and what restaurants she recommended. She was spot on! Bruce met us in the unloading area and saved us a spot so we could unload easily. Ive never had such one on one treatment before. You could tell they wanted you to totally enjoy your trip. They even left a bottle of wine and a mint on each of our pillows. Thank you Martina & Bruce! We loved your place and would love to stay here again next time were in town.
