My stay at the Commercial Hotel was a mixed bag. The price was reasonable, which is a huge plus if you're on a budget, but the experience itself was rather hit-or-miss. The rooms were clean enough, but definitely not fancy, and you might find the lack of private bathrooms a bit inconvenient. Overall, if you're looking for a very basic stay in the Whyte Avenue area, it could work, but be prepared for some quirks.

I was drawn to this hotel because of its low price, but there were some significant drawbacks. The check-in process was confusing and the room was far from pleasant. However, if you’re looking for a budget option with decent cleanliness, this place has its moments. Just be prepared for an older establishment that requires some compromises.

The Commercial Hotel offers a budget-friendly option for those wanting to stay in the Whyte Avenue area. The rooms are quite basic and not very spacious, but they are clean enough for a short stay. Plus, the hotel has a nice community feel with a live blues jam session on Saturdays. However, be cautious about the shared bathrooms and the strong smell of smoke that lingers in some rooms.

I was really disappointed with my stay. The hotel was cheap, but honestly, you get what you pay for. The room had a terrible smell of smoke, and it felt dirty with hair everywhere. On the bright side, the location is decent with some nearby restaurants. However, I'd suggest looking elsewhere to avoid the hassle I experienced.

The Commercial Hotel is a budget-friendly option located in the Whyte Avenue area, close to some interesting shops and restaurants. However, the experience was quite mixed – while the room was clean, it was quite small and had an unmistakable smoky odor. The hotel's old-fashioned charm might appeal to some, but it does come with limitations like shared bathrooms. Be prepared for cash-only transactions and rather basic amenities.

The Commercial Hotel has its charm, especially for those looking for budget-friendly accommodation near Whyte Avenue. The location is great with several interesting shops and restaurants nearby. However, the rooms can be quite old-fashioned, and cleanliness was an issue during my stay. It’s a decent spot if you’re just looking for a place to sleep without breaking the bank.

The Commercial Hotel offers affordable accommodation close to Whyte Avenue, making it a decent choice for budget-conscious travelers. While the rooms are small and somewhat dated, they were clean during my stay. However, I did encounter issues like the overwhelming smell of smoke in the room, and the check-in process was confusing due to cash-only payment. Nonetheless, it's a good option for a short stay if you're looking to save money.
