commonplaceness

State of unremarkability

The quality of being ordinary, unremarkable, or frequently encountered.

Commonplaceness suggests something so familiar it fails to attract notice or interest: The commonplaceness of the décor made the hotel forgettable.

The word often carries a faint note of disappointment—what might have been distinctive has turned out mundane.
