Clean, good value, walkable neighbourhood close to downtown. Loved Coffee Run Co for nice coffee and Steve's Open Kitchen for breakfast, both just around the corner.

i stayed two months in the Airbnb. The apartment was great with close proximity to Hamilton downtown, a catholic church, restaurants, bus stations to various places and Go Train station. The buses can take you to places like Barton, Burlington, Ancaster and college like McMaster University and the Columbia International College etc. The host was responsive to my requests, we enjoyed our stay in the Airbnb.

We wanted to stay in a character apartment. This place delivered. Well appointed. Well decorated. There were many extra touches that made us feel at home. The desk placed in front of a window. Interesting books. Loved the fireplace in the bedroom. We ate in. We had delicious pizza from Flora and chicken from Cluckers. Both place only steps away. Well stocked grocery store, coffee shops all right there. Kitchen was well equipped.

Responsive hosts, easy to deal with, charming little place.

GuestAirbnbOct 2026

Alex and Mel’s B&B was absolutely amazing, from the beautiful accommodations to the warm and welcoming hospitality. Every detail was perfect, and they made us feel right at home throughout our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend staying here to anyone!

KimberlyBooking.comOct 2026

Positive: Thank You, Once Again For The Wonderful Stay! Always Great. Highly Recommend!

GuestAirbnbOct 2026

We booked Alex&Mel's AirBNB last minute for one night and they were extremely helpful, accommodating, and responsive to questions. The apartment is in a great location in Corktown, and is close walking distance to a number of good restaurants. It's also well stocked with toiletries and towels.

GuestAirbnbOct 2026

Great stay! The space was exceptionally clean, comfortable, and located in a wonderful neighborhood with plenty to do nearby. Alex and Mel were fantastic hosts, and Brandy was super responsive and helpful throughout my stay. Would definitely recommend and stay here again!

GuestAirbnbOct 2026

Great location near TD Coliseum. 15 minute walk

GuestAirbnbOct 2026

Amazing stay! The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Alex nd Mel were great hosts friendly, responsive, and made everything easy. I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting the area. Thank you!

MartinBooking.comOct 2026

Positive: Preiswerte Unterkunft an gutet Lage. 10 min nach Downtown zu Fuss. Waschmaschine abends zur freien Verwendung. Negative: Küche hatte keine Lüftung, weshalb der Rauchalarm auslöste. Das Bett war eine Katastrophe. Wir hatten sehr schlecht geschlafen. Parkplatz muss extra bezahlt werden und ist im Hinterhof, welcher nicht bewacht ist.

GuestAirbnbOct 2026

Great place, clean and well taken care of.

GuestAirbnbOct 2026

Very spacious, private unit in a great part of Hamilton. We were very comfortable during our stay and Alex & Mel were very responsive to any needs that arose during our time here. We would gladly stay here again!

I had a wonderful stay at this apartment! The space was exceptionally clean, and looked exactly like the photos. The bed was very comfortable, the Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, and the neighborhood felt safe and quiet at night. Communication was smooth and check-in instructions were clear and easy to follow. I would gladly stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!"

GuestAirbnbSep 2026

Nice place

GuestAirbnbSep 2026

Alex and Mel’s place was a great apartment in an older building close to everything Hamilton. We took a car but didn’t actually need it and they were great at helping us with securing parking. The apartment is cute and true to photos. They are very responsive hosts.

IshankaBooking.comSep 2026
TracyBooking.comSep 2026

I would definitely stay again Positive: It was clean, staff got back to you right away if any questions, walkable to many amenities Negative: We had a truck so parking was little tight especially the alley way to get to it

GuestAirbnbSep 2026

I can't say this enough. This place is amazing! So clean, quiet & just like pictures. Kitchen is stocked with everything that you need. The host are very responsive & accommodating. Next time I am in the city, I will definitely be looking to see if it's available!

GodwinBooking.comSep 2026

Positive: Canceled on me last minute without prior notice! CEO unprofessional move, left me stranded

ShannonBooking.comSep 2026

Positive: Very cozy, has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Negative: No complaints, it had everything we needed.

GuestAirbnbSep 2026

This place was adorable. It had everything we needed to get started, like a well supplied kitchen (with coffee, dishware, cutlery, etc.) and bathroom. The space was as described and it was a lovely older building, near the heart of downtown. We would definitely return!

ChrisBooking.comSep 2026

A good base for my trip. Positive: Location close to downtown and suited my needs. Apartment is small, basic but has all the true essentials. Quiet at night. Negative: Interior and furnishings are dated and “tired”. Sofa is very shallow and a little worn even with the “elastic sheet” type cover on it.

GuestAirbnbSep 2026

Clean and quality area.

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

Beautiful home!

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

Excellent place, worth every penny .

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

Perfect place, amazing downtown location close to great restaurants and really nice apartment with everything you need. Hosts are very kind and responsive. Can’t recommend this place enough.

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

Beautiful place. Very well maintained

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

Very welcoming people and environment, clean and organized even with the basic necessities supplied. I had a great night, would love to book this space again. Very great BNB for a very low price.

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

Great hosts, very responsive to messages! Convenient location, near the hospital.

SusanaBooking.comAug 2026

Dispite the surroundings, the accomodation made me feel lucky I had that place to rest. Positive: The accomodation is excellent. I was there during wild fires and an air quality warning, and felt lucky I had such place to take comfort in. Negative: The location seems to be problematic. I was there for around 10 days and almost everyday there was people shouting outside (one time inside the building - someone that was staying there) and violent noises, which felt a little insecure.

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

Overall great experience. Thank you

The location was convenient, and I had everything I needed for a pleasant visit. I would definitely recommend this place to others and would be happy to stay here again.

GuestAirbnbJul 2026

Clean and cosy.

GuestAirbnbJul 2026

Great hosts! The Airbnb is walking distance from TD Coliseum which was great. Would definitely stay again!

JustinBooking.comJul 2026

Great location; clean, quiet and 5 min walk from downtown. Well worth the stay. Happily return! Positive: Great location - central to downtown Hamilton. Very clean with great facilities; bathroom on small side but more than adequate. Check-in was reasonably straight forward but did need to call host as didn't receive code (via email) to key box; again, not a major hassle. More than happy to stay again and 100% recommend if you're staying in Hamilton. Negative: Bed squeezed terribly when you rolled over! Other than that, nothing to complain about.

GuestAirbnbJul 2026

Très beau logement bien situé. Les hôtes sont très réactifs, aidants et agréables. À noter qu'ils ont plusieurs logements et que nôtre logement ne correspondait pas aux photos, même s'il était super. À noter aussi que le stationnement est disponible, mais moyennant des frais supplémentaires. Nous recommandons!

GuestAirbnbJul 2026

Well secured apartment, beautiful furnitures. Just old building

MccullighBooking.comJul 2026
StephenBooking.comJul 2026

Negative: The bathroom was very small, and the shower ran out of hot water quickly

GuestAirbnbJul 2026

Mel and Alex were great hosts.

GuestAirbnbJul 2026

Alex & Mel were great hosts through and through! Very responsive and friendly, kept clear communication with us at all times. Airbnb was a charming spot right by all the amenities you need by downtown Hamilton. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again. Many thanks!

SherriaBooking.comJul 2026

Positive: It was clean and comfortable. Very spacious and beautiful. Negative: I was not 2 happy about the stairs. But what can you do. Other than that everything was fine

GuestAirbnbJun 2026

Amazing place, the kitchen was so nice and had a beautiful sky light which created so much natural lighting. There was so much to do around the city. And felt right at home every time my girlfriend and I returned to the Air BNB. The bed was as soft as a cloud and put us at ease every time we laid down for the night.

GuestAirbnbJun 2026

Alex and Mel were great at communicating, the location was great for our needs.

GuestAirbnbJun 2026

尽管房东回复及时,主动沟通,但入住体验太差了:1、房间尤其是客厅与照片差异较大,设施陈旧质量差;2、马桶盖与马桶不匹配,漏空一大块,散臭味;3、洗手池太小,很容易弄湿地面和碰头;4、房间电子锁有问题,说明是关门后30秒自动锁上,但实际根本锁不上,我们外出3个小时回来房门仍未锁;5、空调的窗户挡板扣不上,冷空气进入房间,房东维修后不久又掉下来了;6、厨房经常跳闸

GuestAirbnbJun 2026

This booking was not only convenient but very clean, extremely reasonable cost and we very much appreciated the a/c on prior to our arrival! Thx u so much for a very comfortable stay :)

GuestAirbnbJun 2026

We had a great time! It was very hot outside and we found we had to set up our own air conditioning. Once setting up the air conditioning the place cooled down, it was upsetting having to arrive to a very hot location after being in the sun all day. Place is nice and renovated but it is an older build. The location is also super quick to the go station but the walk at night is kind of scary until getting to the main road. Everything is close so that was convenient. Hosts respond super quick!

GuestAirbnbJun 2026

Had another fantastic stay! This is officially our go-to spot every single time we visit Hamilton. The place is always spotlessly clean, super comfortable, and perfectly located. The host is incredibly welcoming and makes check-in a breeze. Can’t wait for our next trip back!

GuestAirbnbJun 2026

Nice place in downtown

GuestAirbnbJun 2026

It's a charming place very well located near good restaurants and the Hamilton Go station!

Alex and Mel were great hosts. The apartment was clean, comfortable and in a great location. Hosts were kind and responsive throughout stay. I would stay here again if I am back in Hamilton another time.

MichielBooking.comMay 2026

Goede locatie in een leuke buurt van Hamilton en een gezellig appartement, maar het interieur kan wel een update gebruik Positive: De locatie is uitstekend: een mooi gebouw in een gezellige en aantrekkelijke buurt van Hamilton, op loopafstand van de leukste straten, restaurants en winkels. Direct achter het gebouw is betaalde parkeergelegenheid beschikbaar, wat erg praktisch is. Het appartement zelf is knus, waardoor het een fijne uitvalsbasis is voor een verblijf in de stad. Negative: Het appartement zou wel een opknapbeurt kunnen gebruiken. De wastafel en de douche waren aan de kleine kant en de bekleding van de eetkamerstoelen zag er versleten en niet erg schoon uit. Ook vonden wij het bed voor twee personen wat aan de kleine kant.

LucioBooking.comMay 2026

Positive: The apartment is in a convenient location and is very spacious, with good, functional appliances. Negative: I had a major issue during my stay: the boiler broke, leaving me without hot water for my final night. Because it occurred late at night, the host was unable to resolve it, and I was forced to take a cold shower. While the host did provide a small amount of compensation in booking credits, it did not adequately account for the lack of essential services during my stay.

GuestAirbnbMay 2026

Character filled apartment near amazing restaurants. Do know it is an older building so sounds are apparent when people come and go. Hot water needs to be ran for a while before it kicks in and found the apartment to be dusty. I was in a different apartment than pictured; you may want to confirm with the host if this is important to you. Overall good stay!

JulieBooking.comMay 2026

Excellent value , spotlessly clean, great hosts Positive: Lovely well equipped and clean apartment , good for transport links/ right next to bus stop Negative: Downtown Hamilton is quite rough

GuestAirbnbMay 2026

There is a lot of good food near by. Short walk to the convention center. The place was clean and super chill.

GuestAirbnbMay 2026

Pleasant stay, great hosts. Place may get a little noisy, but that's to be expected in older buildings.

GuestAirbnbMay 2026

very kind people and very responsive. the place was also nice and clean. the only issue we found was that the shower and lights weren’t working properly (ex: cold water, flickering lights, etc). i am sure if we said something to the hosts, they would try their best to help out and fix it, however we only really slept at the Airbnb so it didn’t feel necessary.

GuestAirbnbMay 2026

Alex and Mel were a great help throughout the stay. I’d stay at their airbnb again

GuestAirbnbMay 2026

Great location and price, right next to the TD coliseum, local restaurants & mall. Host were very responsive and place was cozy and clean. Would highly recommend!

GuestAirbnbMay 2026

A great clean safe place to stay. Lots of great bars and restaurants around. A great host

GuestAirbnbApr 2026

The place is in a great location with very responsive hosts. Stay was for a week so there was some hiccups with the main door not working a few times but the hosts were extremely responsive and had it corrected within minutes! The place was very nice kitchen was well equipped and the bed was extremely comfy! The area is very nice theres something to do for anyone and it’s decently quiet for being downtown! I would say for anyone who is built larger be weary of the shower size as it is an extremely small shower id say if your over 150lbs your gonna feel like a pig on a roast rotating around the shower because it’s so small but the rest of the space is very nice laid out and spacious! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a vibrant area and great hosts!

GuestAirbnbApr 2026

Nice place

NiklasBooking.comApr 2026

Positive: Location was good Negative: Neighbourhood seemed rough People around the apartment seemed under influence of drugs

BerndBooking.comApr 2026

Positive: Die gesamte Wohnung war super! Negative: Das Waschbecken war ungünstig positioniert. Heizung könnte man nicht regeln.

GuestAirbnbApr 2026

Great spot for a short stay in Hamilton.

GuestAirbnbApr 2026

Great hosts, felt very well taken care of. The place is also fantastic and close to some really cool places.

GuestAirbnbApr 2026

it was excellent and I enjoy my stay

RegineAirbnbApr 2026

Very lovely place, hosts were also so communicative the whole time when I had questions! My only concern was the unit given to us was a bit different from the photos in the Airbnb (maybe it was a different unit) and the bathroom door couldn’t be closed. Although the host sent maintenance to fix the bathroom door right away so still giving them a great rating. Would recommend to anyone and would stay again!

TealAirbnbApr 2026

This was a great apartment with a nice layout! It’s close to restaurants and downtown while being tucked away from the noise. Thank you!

StephenAirbnbMar 2026

Great location. and beautiful apartment. I would stay there again when im in town.

LuabanyaBooking.comMar 2026
MartinAirbnbMar 2026

Nice clean place in walking distance to hospital. Stairs leading up to third floor unit are pretty steep so be mindful about carrying up a suitcase.

StevenAirbnbMar 2026

I had to chance to stay here this past weekend and from the minute I walked in the door I absolutely loved the place. It was the perfect size, well equipped and nice and close to everything I needed. I really loved the look both inside and outside. Alex and Mel were super easy to deal with, and extremely quick to respond anytime so had a question. It came with clear and easy instructions on how to access the suite.

ShreshtaAirbnbMar 2026

Great accommodation. Perfect location with great restaurants in walking distance. The hosts are very responsive and helpful. Although one suggestion - if the windows have some blackout curtains or something darker that would be nice. The window covers do not block any light at night. As a person who requires full darkness while sleeping, I had to wrap a shirt around my head to get myself to sleep. But in any case, I enjoyed my stay. :)

VijayAirbnbMar 2026

very nice place thank you

EmmelieAirbnbMar 2026

Fijne airbnb, heeft alles wat je nodig hebt. Keuken met alles erop en eraan, goede tv, lekker bed (wel een erg zacht matras) en een prima badkamertje. Helaas is de woning wel erg gehorig en hoor je de buren regelmatig

GordieAirbnbFeb 2026

Really enjoyed my stay, totally recommend as its open concept and has a classic style to it. 10 out of 10

JustinBooking.comFeb 2026
KatrinaAirbnbFeb 2026

It's a great building, classic build with radiant heat, and plenty of space to enjoy. Super comfy bed and bedding. The shower is on the smaller side but not restrictive. The kitchen was well stocked and worked great. There are a few bus stops right on the main street and a small grocer just a 2 min walk away. I had an issue with noise from the upstairs unit but Alex & Mel were very quick to respond and the noise settled down.

SaraAirbnbFeb 2026

A lovely space in a great area! Easy check in and they were very responsive any time I reached out.

BrodyAirbnbFeb 2026

Nice apartment with lots of restaurants and bars close by. Host was quick with communication and was very nice
