My point with the auditorium comment was that you can have multiple APs in close proximity as long as you pay attention to channel planning and cell sizing. Two in-walls on either end of the room would cover you if you were concerned about obstructions in the middle of the room.
I think it would be a lot easier if I didn't work on so many old homes that were built from materials that are very unfriendly WRT RF. Metal screen used for lath to hold plaster (with sand in it- it's more like mortar), heavy masonry walls, heavy plaster ceilings with said metal screen- it's hard enough to get RF to pass but if cabling has to be run, it can be pretty ugly.
