    We could hear the buses late at night and early in the morning from the main road.

    The welcoming was lovely. The room had everything we needed.

    A good place, but only to just sleep there

    Important: This refers to the single room. I saw the double room with bathroom. That room is very nice and if I had stayed there, my rating would be better!! - The single room is very, very small. It is not 8m² as advertised, but only almost 6 - and that is a big difference! The pictures that are in the ad now, show it realistically. - The window faces the veranda, so people often walk past or stand right in front of it. So with the curtain open you have no privacy and with the curtain closed it gets quite claustrophobic. - The common kitchen, living room and bathroom are the "normal" ones of the (medium sized) family and, of course, they also look like that with regard to cleanness and tidiness. - You can use the kitchen and living room, but I would never have done that. It is simply awkward to be the only stranger in the kitchen of a family that you don't understand because they speak (presumably) Chinese. There is also nothing that invites to sit/stay there - so you can't really spend time outside your room. - The written communication and the check-in were easy, but the communication on site wasn't (due to the Language barrier). - The house is quite clean, but not tidy and a bit chaotic.

    Everybody in the family was nice and friendly, also the kids. - The bed was good and the room was clean. It was quiet at night, so I had a really good sleep! - Communication beforehand and check-in were easy.

    It's difficult to finf. I nearly walked past it.

    I enjoyed a single bedroom. I knew that if I needed help I could have asked. There was everything you need. Very nice surroundings with a lot of nature

    The towels were small and thin, the mugs too small and the hot water took a while to heat up.

    I loved this little home away from home. It's a cosy and comfortable place to stay. It's private and convenient to use as a base.

    It is part of a family home where not everyone appeared to speak Englsh; all very friendly; just a bit confusing when you first arrive as there was no obvious entrance

    good value for money. Well located within Hamilton. Comfortable bed and room. A good en suite facility

    The shower was really mouldy and dirty and the entrance was connected with the main house and it was a little bit noisy as well and felt like we didn’t have much privacy for ourselves after a long day

    That the room setup was good and had things like fridge and plates and stuff.

    It was inconvenient to have the sink in a separate room from the toilet, especially when many others are using the same washroom.

    The complimentary tea and hygiene products were such a lovely gesture. The family was friendly and kept to themselves. Check in process was very easy and quick. Parking right out front of the house was great. Cherry provided very clear directions to the house.

    I didn't read the description well and didn't realize I would be staying in a family's home. They were very friendly but for me it felt a little strange to be in someone's kitchen- I felt I was intruding. I think their hosting setup would be better for a boarder, not someone staying a night or two when passing through town.

    The location was peaceful, beautiful flowers outside the house, friendly hosts. Though there were children the quiet hours were respected and I did sleep soundly from 10p onward. I appreciated the opportunity to stay.
