The Commons Inn is a great place to stay if you are looking solely for a home base during your travels. The room was small with a bed, fridge and desk and that was all that would fit. The front desk staff were lovely and very accommodating. Great location and easy to access.

The hotel staff eere very friendly and helpful. We were able to leave our luggage at the reception after check out. The hotel was clean but a bit old. The location is not ideal, while it is in a safe area, getting to some attractions can be a long and tiring ealk if you are not renting a car or using public transportation. Overall, it offered good value for money and was a solid budget friendly option.

This got the job done for a reasonable price. It’s basic, without much in the way of amenities, the wifi was inconsistent, but cellular reception was fine. A microwave and mini fridge were in the room which is handy. Cafes and restaurants within walking distance.
