Hans is a contradiction. He's human, which Samus has taught herself to associate with weakness, ignorance, and blinkered ethics. Hans, though, is a warrior and philosopher, and she feels a certain kinship with him for that. Beyond that, he manages to appreciate things from outside his experience, something the Nexus has shown her is rare in any species.
She's pleasantly surprised by Hans, his mental flexibility and his visceral fortitude. He seems to accept her status as a warrior, and doesn't try to chide her or talk her out of it. And he poses a challenge of his own, which she can hardly resist. In short, she's very fond of him.
