I always enjoy staying at the Looking Glass because the staff is friendly, the rooms are clean, housekeeping and the ground staff are also helpful and friendly. During the cold months you can always get a something hot to drink. Dog area is kept clean, although everyone does not use the poop bags to clean up behind their pets.
