unremarkable

Not worth noting

Unremarkable describes something ordinary, not worthy of special notice or comment.

A doctor's report might note unremarkable findings—nothing abnormal, nothing concerning.

The word often carries a faint dismissiveness: an unremarkable career, an unremarkable meal.

What's unremarkable isn't bad, just not memorable.
