We stayed at Irwin's December 29th - 30th and had one of the 3rd floor rooms with a vaulted ceiling. So spacious. While dated, the room was very clean and well appointed. The only negative comment is either the doors or walls are thin. There was a man out in the hallway taking a phone call early in the morning , likley hoping to not wake his family, but rather waking everyone else in the rooms around him. I could tell you every word he said. So much for privacy.

The room had two chairs suitable for a table but no table. The photos for a superior room show more comfortable living room type chairs which is why we booked a superior room. The walls are paper thin so you can constantly hear doors slamming.
