Great stay in a more residential part of Hamilton. Great for a lil staycation with my partner, and small pug. There was a dog show that weekend, so there were a few families with dogs. Great spot if you need to stay with your pet.

The room was cleaned daily and the staff was friendly, the check-in and check-out process was easy and quick. The response from the staff was prompt and the building is in a new state with secured access and underground garage that facilitated entry to the hotel during bad weather. All in all the hotel is kept in really great shape and hope it stays the same

8/10 Very good

Check in was easy and quick. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was clean and beds were comfortable. Breakfast was good, fresh and enough options. Only minor things with our stay was: air conditioner was very loud when it clicked in, was rattling. And we had a room at the front of the building this time, facing the street, at times could really hear the traffic and loud cars/trucks.
