We stayed at the Glen for 4 nights at Christmas-time. It is in a lovely (and perfect for us) location. We love that there were only about 20 rooms there. The room and hotel were quiet. The on-site restaurant is pretty good (if somewhat pricy). The bed and pillows were comfortable. We had a family dinner in one of the heated "igloos" on the porch and had a very good meal. Fun. There are really nice common areas with comfortable seating near the rooms, which we took advantage of. All of the staff were extremely friendly. Now the bad: As previous reviewer said, the thermostat is only controllable by the hotel and it was always too hot or too cold - there is an in-room thermostat that the front desk said had no effect. When we told them to set it to 71, the room was 75+. When we said to change it down to 70, it was 68 or less. No vent in the bathroom, which was COLD. Speaking of the bathroom, the toilet was so low to the ground, like I have not seen since my kid's kindergarten bathroom. But the common bathroom toilets in other parts of the facility were the same...very strange. Also, it is obvious at some point the bathrooms had bathtubs which had been remodeled to be a walk-in shower. But only the front half had glass. Because of low water pressure and the lack of a heater vent in the room, it was really cold in the shower. At a different time of year, it might not be as noticeable. Final complaint/observation - the room was a strange mix of expensive and cheap furnishings. Very nice bed, nightstand, wing chair - then a very cheap, rickety chest of drawers, and a refrigerator and microwave just stacked under the TV set. Because of its location, we will likely continue to stay there even with the downsides mentioned. It is definitely a good alternative to the closest hotels (Marriott and Sheraton).
