Room was spotless. Staff were courteous. Great view of the ocean. Great amenities we had a fire place and jacuzzi tub. Great continental breakfast in the morning. Loved the coffee shop around the corner and it’s in close proximity to several great restaurants. It gets a little loud with others having their dogs in their rooms. Definitely would come back again.

We were here for my birthday and King Tides. The room was spotless, new carpet, new furniture, great jacuzzi. Bathroom fan motor needs replaced. It would growl like an angry dog until it finally took off. We love staying here. Cant wait until our next adventure so we can stay here again.

Looking Glass is very nice and conveniently located right on the Siletz Bay. The room was a bit warm/stale for us though it was only in the mid-60’s outside. It was almost as if they shampooed the carpet, then closed it off, making it humid. Beyond that, there was a vending machine and ice maker that worked well, and it was also nice to see that they offered beach toys to the guests. Mo’s is right across the street, where there is public parking, so that can make things a little loud, but not a game changer. The jacuzzi tub was very nice. Would stay again!

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.
