“Irving House is clean and the continental breakfast okay, but it is a very bare-bones, stripped down small hotel, not really a bed and breakfast in the usual sense. I stayed in a single room on Oct. 3, 2007, and it was very stark, clean, with a large desk but little else to recommend it. Stay here only if you can't find a better place.”

“I have stayed at Irving House over the years as often as possible. The staff go way above and beyond, to create a warm, cozy, friendly atmosphere in a spotlessly clean and charming inn with many amenities like large breakfast. I can't recommend Irving House highly enough--but clearly I am not alone, judging by its perennial popularity.”
