I love the looking glass in. The staff is amazing and the room was very comfortable. I immediately felt right at home and would definitely return.

The staff was fine. The bed in the Willow Room was very soft and uncomfortable to the point that sleep was very difficult. We had a conference that started at 8;00 so we needed to eat breakfast promptly at 7:00 as advertised, only to not serving did not occur until 7:15, making us late to the conference session.... probably not return.

The stay was great! However we were only there one night! The only thing that could be better is having an option for something warm for breakfast. The Inn is in a goid locution! Nice historic area! Would like to stay longer next time.

Pros: cleanest place ever, beautiful property, easy check in, thoughtful/tasteful room design, easy entry. Loved the access to ice and filtered water. Nice pillows.
Cons: the best was VERY uncomfortable. Whenever one of us moved the other one rolled to the center of the mattress. The water pressure was extremely low in the shower. That might not bother everyone. Also, I was expecting a breakfast, rather than just a little continental. It’s okay, it’s just not what I’m used to from B and Bs.

Beautiful historic home in an equally beautiful and historic neighborhood. Walking distance to President Benjamin Harrison home, Morris-Butler house, and area restaurants. It is safe and quiet with easy on-street parking.

Super charming and comfortable accommodations. Staff was great, wifi was fast, loved the snacks available late night, and breakfast was very nice. The staff recommended a restaurant an 8 min walk away and it was also excellent.

We were in town for the Indianapolis Monumental Marathon. The Looking Glass Inn was close (6 minute drive) to the start of the race. No traffic on race morning. Plus, it is close to restaurants for the night before. The neighborhood is beautiful, and we will stay here again!

The bed and breakfast was in a good location. The breakfast was disappointing, it was comparable to a continental breakfast at a motel. The service was non-existent. We felt this place was not worth the price.

The inn is amazingly beautiful and quiet. The interior design clearly was built with love and compassion. Enjoyed it very much.

Would absolutely recommend this! It felt much more like home than a traditional hotel, and the staff were all great!

I liked everything except cleaning in our room. Overall it was fine. But I was not expecting some dust flying in the cupboard. In my judgment cleaning person should have cleaned entire room including the closet. When I wiped the floor of the closet with the paper towel we brought towel was black.
I expected the towel in front of the bathroom will be changed everyday. I don't like stepping on dirty towel after the shower. Our towels were not changed. We appreciate it, we like ecofriendly persons/B&Bs. We were quite careful keeping our towels clean using paper towels we brought to clean certain parts of the body so that towel is clean to use for a couple of days. But it is difficult to keep the towel in front of the shower clean, in my judgment in needs to be changed every day.
However as I indicated in my evaluation, overall property was very good 4.5/5 It would have been excellent 5/5 had they addressed two easy points I pointed out above.
Breakfast was great, overall the premise was in a very good condition. It was a pleasant stay. We really appreciate no smoking facility. Cleanliness is very important for us.

This is our second stay and we loved this room too! In fact 2 other members of my family stayed here and we got to see other rooms - which were lovely. This is just a great, cozy, family-friendly place to stay.

I liked the house structure, it was beautiful. Old houses are expensive to upkeep -- at some time windows on this house may need updated. The bathtub --jacuzzi & shower combo were difficult to climb in and out of.
