I have just three working days to complete some research at the library there, though I'm hoping to squeeze in a trip to the Winnipeg Art Gallery and St. Boniface Cathedral. I've already read answers at this forum re downtown Winnipeg, also heard from a reliable source that the place has turned into the armpit of hell: but I'm experienced traveler and a city girl, so I don't scare easily. Still, I'll be traveling alone on this trip and want a place that's relatively safe and quiet.
The University's website is surprisingly unhelpful: no hostels, dorm rooms to let, housing for visiting scholars?
Please don't suggest airport or suburban hotels: I'm driving, not flying in. I also don't want to waste time commuting into town and getting lost trying to find parking.
I'm also wondering if it's glove and boot weather there yet. I'm from Minnesota and can suck up anything winter throws at me, but I hate not being prepared.
