We were in Kamiah for a wedding. This quaint place was everything we needed and more. The front staff was very helpful and extremely friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. The morning breakfast was great. The waffle and eggs were very satisfying. My wife especially liked the biscuits and gravy. This was a very nice play to stay.
