no real reads on villain as it's just started, but he did seem to be pretty active in the first few hands - mainly limping pre.

I would probably call the turn and see what happens on the river, especially if you've seem him being active early on.

I would probably OPR the guy first and see if he's a serious player or just the random aggressive guy who will float with just about anything. If the queen hit him, I believe he misplayed it, he probably should have just checked, waiting for you to bet the turn so he can call and represent a passively played spade draw. Yet that's a very read-dependent tricky spot, and you might have taken the right decision. A queen completely enters into his limping raise here and you're not beating a lot of hands. You probably made the good choice.
