i'm assuming you're going to mac?
westdale area for sure. if you have a car, theres a lot of places up the mountain that are nice, but wouldn't consider if your are planning on bussing around.
try http://hamilton.craigslist.org/ ..it has free listings and u can advertise as well. |

Westdale or South James areas are the nicest.
Stay out of North Hamilton completely and if you're at Mac I don't recommend the Broadway area. Stay on the same side of Main as the university. |

| If you drive and are going to Mac, consider something in Fundas...I mean Dundas, it's all of a 5 minute drive. There is bus service between Dundas and the campus as well. |

I think this is something more along your lines. www.chateauroyale.ca, if you have a vehicle there's underground parking and if your taking the bus (bus also going directly to MAC is located beside the building), there's a buses going to any part of the city within walking distance and it's also located right beside Go-Transit. |

there are a few nice streets on the other side of main you might not want to overlook. but yeah some of the streets with the tiny houses that are one meter apart, broken glass everywhere on the street, and beat up office chairs on the porches are pretty sad.. haha |
