Great location. Such a cute historical District! I felt like the looking glass was my home and those were my neighbors. Everyone was very nice respectful and inviting. We really appreciated the tour at the beginning of our stay and learning about the history of the house. We felt VERY safe staying there and really appreciated our own side entrance that Included a key.

The air freshener in our room was VERY potent. I don’t have asthma but if I did I’m sure it would of triggered a reaction. It’s a great idea to have a fresh smelling room but that smell was a little intense that we had to open windows. The bed was comfortable and nice sheets! unfortunately , we found lingere under our bed that was not ours! :/ super gross. I brought it up to an employee of the Inn and as she was apologetic but her main response was “ I only work here on the weekends” The room otherwise felt very clean. Breakfast was yummy! We do wish there was some type of protein besides hard boiled eggs.

We've stayed here before and knew our room would be lovely and very comfortable. What made this stay stand out was our host this time. DeWayne is so welcoming and engaging. He lets you know there is nothing more important to him than the comfort of his guests.

I was disappointed that we couldn't enjoy the full breakfast experience in the dining room. It has always been exceptional in the past. But I know that is because of currant health restrictions in compliance with Covid mandates. What they DID provide was very good and nicely presented in a picnic basket to each room (perfect for those who prefer room service!), and I am grateful that they make the safety of their guests a priority. But I do look forward to the return of normal operations once we are passed the pandemic. Let's hope that happens soon!

From the moment Dewayne greeted mi I knew I would be happy with my choice to stay at the Looking Glass Inn. Dewayne was the consummate host in showing me to my room as well as touring the Inn. The classic old house is what I had in mind for a special place to stay during my cross country road trip.The Willow room was perfect for my taste from the luxurious comfortable bed to the vintage marble bathroom. Additionally, Eric assisted me with a special request to use the computer to manage my iPhone pictures, that was VERY helpful.

Covid has unfortunately prevented breakfasts in the social areas of the house thus, the basket breakfast is somewhat of a disappointment. I would suggest warming the muffins.

Wonderful older home for a bed and breakfast. White tablecloth breakfast. This was our second stay in the crimson room. Love it! Convenient to the Talbott St art show, and Tinker’s restaurant.

Great -sized room! Plenty of space on both sides of the bed, a beautiful desk with a chair, plus two additional chairs, and a walk-in closet. Nicely furnished bathroom, too! Many historic homes in the neighborhood.

Nice choice for breakfast menu and cozy enough that all quests interacted during the meal.

Instructions on how to use the TV. (We have cable at home.)

Old nice building. Looks like a older home that was converted. Nice neighborhood. The guy that checked us in was helpful and nice.

No flexibility with breakfast. Due to COVID, they bring a basket of continental style breakfast to your room at 8:00. We had to leave before 7.

Beautiful, comfortable, and clean. Staff is friendly, accommodating, and genuine. Loved the ambiance and history of the house and surrounding area. Close to downtown, restaurants, shopping, sport venues, and museums. Great weekend spent with my sisters.

Too short of a visit.
