Great choice for us to have our stay. We stayed 5 nights and was really good from check in to check out - 5/5 Breakfast was great every morning and even when we were leaving eraly on our last morning they offered to make us a packed lunch. We were visiting my brother, and they offered to let them come over and use the pool with us, which was a really nice touch. Its so nice to see this B&B being run as a family business, and it shows. We will be looking forward to coming back soon

Interesting experience. Pleasant staff and good breakfast. Mattress in Principal’s Room was too soft for my partner but was just fine for me. All else met expectations.

Wish we could have stayed longer

Such a fun experience especially if you love vintage architecture and unique things! Excellent friendly service, amazing breakfast, comfortable room. Really enjoyed the large claw foot tub in the Chemistry room and the game / reading room on the landing. Beautiful views out every window. Only put 4 stars b/c the mattress was extremely soft and the train came through several times during the night - fine if you’re a heavy sleeper. Ear plugs were provided. Would recommend and return!

The owner and her family are amazingly friendly and accommodating. The area is quiet and safe, and a short walk across the bridge to the older downtown area of Bonner's Ferry.
