Super 8 by Wyndham Winnipeg West

Nice Super 8 with fresh fruit at desk and free Slurpee to cool us down. Room was a nice size with comfortable bed, good wifi and nice size bathroom. Fitness room was great with lots of equipment. We would stay here again.

The stay was good, had some hot water issues but wasn’t a big deal at all. Hot water issue was fixed the next day.

So I’m on a cross country road trip to relocate and prebooked a stay here. As I’m coming through the border checkpoint, the Canadian customs official asks where I’m staying and I tell him Super 8 Winnipeg West. He suggests I research the hotel because I must be mistaken, and asked if they called me. Now I had gotten a call telling me that there was no hot water at the property, and they offered to relocate me to a Motel 6. Not wanting to change up travel plans on my elderly father, we decided it wasn’t a big deal. I proceed to the hotel, assuming the customs official must be mistaken and it was another property. I arrive and the hotel is basically empty, and the clerk checks me in no problem. I then discover in numerous news articles from CBC, CNN, and Global News that the hotel had experienced high levels of carbon monoxide making guests sick two days prior to my arrival. Taking a guess here, but I think it may be connected to the hot water heater that isn’t working. Officials from the fire department and hydro were in the parking lot, and I just made the decision to leave after about 20 minutes in the room. The room itself seemed fine for what we needed, but the omission of the carbon monoxide poisoning of guests two days prior to me checking in left me feeling like they were dishonest. I turned in my room key after booking a suite at a nicer chain hotel just down the road for about $20 more than I paid for this place.

Stayed in this hotel for one night. It’s clean. Staff friendly. Only issue is noise from the street.
