It has just what you need not more. No cable on tv but chromecast. For a short trip for one person it is just right.

Terrible. Booked 4 nights non refundable and the rooms were terrible. Did not stay, had to book another hotel for the 4 nights. Beware

Good price for peak season in Halifax in comparison with other hotels, front desk staff were super helpful and kind. Wouldn’t describe it as clean, and there’s no daily housekeeping or space to get rid of garbage so we’d bring any food-related garbage to outdoor garbage bins the next day, but it was fine for a budget-friendly option for a few days.

Small but comfortable room. Great area. One thing to know is that there is no elevator; whichever floor you are on you will have to take stairs.

ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE: Zero customer service and major health hazards

Do NOT book the Commons Inn.
After booking, I came across horrific reviews revealing active rodent (mice) infestations and severe sanitation issues at this property. As someone who is disabled and severely immunocompromised, staying in an environment with known rodent hazards is a direct threat to my health and completely unsafe.
I tried cancelling my reservation well before the trip. I reached out multiple times via phone and email through Expedia, Blue Rewards, and directly to the Commons Inn itself. The result? Completely ignored by email, and bluntly denied a refund over the phone under the guise of a "non-refundable policy."
Hiding behind a non-refundable clause when your facility poses legitimate health and safety hazards is unacceptable. Charging guests to stay in unsafe conditions and then ignoring their desperate customer service requests is predator behavior.
Save yourself the stress, health risks, and wasted money. Stay anywhere else!
