What Guests Say About Their Stay

Oriana

10.0
/ 10
Upon arrival, the staff were super friendly. Navigating the building was slightly confusing because they were undergoing renovations (I stayed in July 2025), but I was glad to see that they care to make improvements to their building. I booked a deluxe room with 1 queen bed. My room was clean, spacious, and I had no issues with the wi-fi. Unfortunately there is no on-site parking, but there was free street parking nearby/just outside of the building (I do not remember if it was free 24/7, or just on weekends when I had stayed). Overall, I enjoyed my stay at this hotel.

Room was small but clean, bed was comfy. Staff were friendly and helpful with our bags. You can hear most things in the hallway. Cons: no elevator and no public bathroom. Location was superb. Hot spot for locals. Food and drinks all within wallking distance. Quiet neighborbood and felt safe. Coming from Vancouver BC... felt like commercial drive. Would stay again and i would recommend folks to check out. Every local we ran into said "thats a good area".

There was a mouse in my room. When I told the man at the front desk, he indicated that he would provide a refund but when he realized it was through Expedia, he said he did not know how to do that. I was advised I would be contacted. I was never contacted and no refund was issued. Expedia advised me that The Commons refused a refund and that I had been offered an alternative. I had not been offered an alternative, in fact, as I mentioned, I had been offered a refund.

Nice location, there’s a pub next door and a few cafes along the street. Walking distance to citadel. Room was clean but we did found a mouse on our last night. There’s no hair dyer in the washroom. They also don’t recommend drinking the tap water but no drinking water is provided, you have to buy bottled water from them. Fire station is along the street so if you’re sensitive to the noise just keep that in mind

The place was run down the bathroom sink was clogged and slow draining, the bathtub is so high and unsafe that you slip trying to get in and the tv worked but had no working channels, I will never come back here again and it was not worth $186.

we drove in from Montreal and arrived almost closer to midnight. The room that I thought I booked was big and had a bath, and however, it was up of flights upstairs, and we just were too tired and could not carry our baggage of the stairs therefore we ask for a ground for a room. The gentleman at the front desk was very kind welcoming and changed our room to our ground floor, however the room was extremely small dark. We couldn’t open the curtains because people would see into the room and the refrigerator made loud noises all night. There was rust on the shower door and the shower was extremely small. I could barely fit in it. When we asked to change rooms the next day, we were told no. The location is amazing great street with lots of nice cafés and close to downtown but they do need to fix up the place, especially that room.
