We stayed in Paola's place over the Thanksgiving Holidays. We had a lovely stay. The house was located within walking distance of some many good places to eat and drink on SE Hamilton. There was plenty of places to park close to the house. The house was lovely and warm, even though it was in the low 40s outside.
The only slight downside, which might affect some people was that you could hear the people walking around the house above. If you are people who like to have a long lay in, this might affect you. We were up early enough that it wasn't a problem.
