Got a great room with a view. Complementary simple breakfast was a plus. The room did smell funny every time we entered, probably due to the whole carpet floor being a little damp. The staff was amazing and knd. Thanks for a fun girls trip!

The staff here was amazing! However, I cannot say the same for the room. There was so much light coming out from the sides of the curtains I found it impossible to get to and stay asleep so I maybe got 4 hours of sleep. And upstairs a person or people were running around loudly with sound coming through my ceiling. I couldn’t find a thermostat anywhere and so the room stayed extremely hot, which also made it hard to sleep.

Nice view of Siletz Bay and Pacific Ocean. Mo's Restaurant is directly across the street, and one can view the sunset while dining if timed just right. Great place to watch people, crabbing, fishing or just strolling on the beach.

We absolutely love the Looking glass Inn and would definitely stay for a minimum of 2 to 3 nights the next time around! Loved the fireplace in our room and having blankets for the deck on a chilly morning, sipping coffee! Front desk, staff and cleaning staff were very efficient and friendly!!
