The room was excellent. Clean and we had a corner room so we were able to see the street below. No hotel parking. We had to park on the street.

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.

Currently expecting Expedia to refund our money. We stayed for only about half an hour before giving our keys back to the front desk and stating our expectation of a refund . The room literally had NO WINDOWS BUT THERE WERE CURTAINS OVER DRYWALL WHERE THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN WINDOWS!!! THE RECEPTIONIST HAD NO ALTERNATE ROOM TO OFFER. .COMPLETELY UNSAFE.

No air conditioning, which really wasn’t all that bad since we could open the window. The mini fridge just froze everything even on the lowest setting. TV did not work even after asking about it. The insulation in the building must be ancient because we heard everyone all the time coming and going above us and beside us. The room was clean. Wouldn’t stay again because of the amount of noise. Didn’t sleep for 2 nights.

The room felt more like a basement room you'd rent to a student than a hotel room. I wanted to spend as little time in the room as possible.

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.

A few small touches would make a big difference for this small hotel. Towel racks in the bathroom, a shelf or two to place toiletries, a small set of drawers to unpack clothes into. It was very bare bones. Staff were friendly and did their best to be helpful. WiFi was intermittent and ChroneCast on the TV had to be reset a couple of times.

The hotel was severely over priced. The property was in disrepair. The rooms were somewhat tidy but close inspection there was hair in the shower the floor of the bathroom. It took 5 mins for any hot water. The staff were not accommodating or particularly friendly. The tv did not work the internet was terrible. Zero parking! Hallways dark. There was a decent working fridge, microwave and air conditioner. The doors slammed very loud. Bed was terrible! I felt like I was lying on a lumpy hill. Would not recommend especially at the over £120 per night price!

The rooms are not how they appear on line. They are very barebones, in the same league as a hostel. Everything is really really cheap. This place has deteriorated over the years.

Room was ok- double beds were ok but not super comfortable. There was no heat in the room so staff had to bring in a heater and extra blankets. There was no window in the room- just a curtain to resemble a window. There is absolutely no parking for this hotel- only street parking which during the day is only 1-2 hours parking limit- ok for night parking on street. No restaurant in hotel of coffee maker in room but there was a fridge. Pub next door great for food

The inn was older and needed maintenance and new paint. The internet didn't work in my room for the four nights I stayed there, although I asked about it a few times. The room was clean although there was no daily house-keeping. The room was adjacent to a flat-roof area where there were many pigeons that made noise early in the morning. The room overlooked the back sitting area for a restaurant and there was noise in the evening, although it stopped by 10:30 pm. There was only one small dining sitting chair in the room and no desk. The TV didn't work. The microwave and beer fridge worked ok. The air conditioning worked although it was noisy. The hallways and staircases smelled and could certainly use more upkeep. I wouldn't stay there again.

There is very limited parking and you have to pay. The building is very old and there’s dusty construction stuff hanging around where the old reception would have been. The building is not accessible at all and there are many steep stairs to get to the rooms. No ice machine. Had to ask for extra pillows and towels- they would not be delivered to the room so you had to get it from the front desk. The tv would not work as it was and would not connect to the internet- there is no cable only chrome cast which is fine but you need the internet- staff would not help with this. The room itself was okay as the beds were comfortable but other than that this was an expensive backpackers style hostel. No room service.

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.
