WINNIPEG — A hotel that is being converted into luxury apartments is giving 34-suites worth of bed frames, mattresses and sofas to Syrian refugees.
John Saad, general manager of Place Louis Riel Suite Hotel, says they could have sold the items to another hotel chain.
But he says it is a great "repurpose" of the furniture and it gives people a fresh start with their new lives in Canada.
Ahmad Jameel, a refugee, said through a translator that they are thankful for any help offered and called it "amazing" and "wonderful."
But Saad says there is nothing amazing about the donation and it was just "a natural thought process."
