Willistead Manor did not have just one bedroom. The two original guest suites were located at the north end of the second floor. Each suite contained a bedroom, ensuite washroom and walk in closets. These rooms were removed in the earl to mid 1920's to make way for the Walkerville Town Council Chambers. Upon amalgamating with the City of Windsor, this chamber become the original home of the Windsor Art Gallery, now known as the AGW (Art Gallery of Windsor).

The third floor, which now consists of many storage rooms as well as the offices for the "Friends of Willistead", were originally staff quarters for the Walker's overnight visitors. The Walkers had but one live in servant, Mrs. Walker's personal maid. Other staff rooms were located above the coach house across the courtyrad from the main house.
