Looks great from the front but the room was a little tired. Fridge configuration made it difficult to get food in and out of. Great location. No microwave in room, wanting people to use their restaurant. Couple of fast food breakfast options within walking distance.

Kitchen is fully equipped but not for cooking. There's facilities to make tea or coffee and heat up food (microwave) if you need to. We did not expect cooking facilities. The room is clean, bed and pillows soft. Location is handy. Will come back again.

Fantastic stay! The location was perfect,just minutes from the airport. Check-in was smooth and friendly, and the spa room was absolutely amazing. Everything was spotless and well-maintained, with a super comfortable bed that made for a great night’s sleep. Loved the convenience of parking right in front of the room and how easy check-in and check-out were. I Would highly recommend a stay at The Commodore.

We didn’t have breakfast there as were unable to get a later than 10 am checkout. Room was great. Big and comfy for 5. Well priced. 2 bathrooms and an area we could close off for the kids. Was probably one of the better family rooms we’ve ever stayed at.
