The host was kind and hospitable. The room was clean and comfortable. There is a cozy common place where there are games, books and a desktop. Not sure if we can use it and the printer too. The bathrooms were clean too and towels were provided too. They also provided toiletry and hair dryer . Thus, overall, it is a good choice to stay. I will choose here when I travel Hamilton
