Liked: Cleanliness
This hotel is more like a hostel than a hotel. Although clean, it’s definitely worn down. Room was efficient, clean and quiet with a mini fridge. The hot tub was terrible. The water jets don’t work properly and it’s located right behind the front desk with only a glass wall separating them that doesn’t go to the roof so all conversations at the front desk can be heard. On the third day, they closed it as the water was no longer hot enough. There is an extreme lack of parking with only 23 stalls in the underground parade and a severe lack of street parking available. You cannot park out front as it’s prohibited and you are competing with local residents on the back streets. This would be a nightmare during the high season. The ski “lockers” are actually open slots lining the walls where a metal flap is locked across your skis… and is not very secure. An ambitious thief can definitely steal poles and with the right tools, the metal flaps or cords (used for snowboards) can be cut off. The hotel does provide the locks free of charge but I kept my skis in my vehicle

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.
