The Commonwealth Hotel is beautiful and the hotel room has ample space. The front desk staff are knowledgeable of the area and helpful overall. The valet offers quick service with a smile. I’m claustrophobic, so I used the stairs vs. small elevators, but that was a small inconvenience in an overall glorious stay.
