Why Choose a Bed & Breakfast?
Do you remember the motel room that you stayed in 5 years ago? Probably
not. But people who stay at Bed & Breakfasts remember, because
their experience is so unique and special. Innkeepers take great pride
in their home, and enjoy sharing it with people who appreciate its
distinctive history and personality. But what really sets B&B's
apart are the innkeepers, who blend the skills of a chef, waiter,
historian, tour guide, librarian, housekeeper, decorator, and gardener,
to make every guest's experience a delight.

6. Are B&B's for everyone?
If your require a cocktail lounge, late night room service, or valet
parking, then a Bed & Breakfast probably won't be your first
choice. But if you're looking for a peaceful atmosphere, delicious
home-cooked breakfasts, personal attention, comfortable beds,
well-appointed rooms, recommendations on restaurants and activities,
and meeting other interesting guests, then a Bed & Breakfast is for
you!
7. How is a B&B different from a motel?
While most motels offer cookie-cutter rooms in humdrum buildings, each
Bed & Breakfast is unique in its architectural style, guest room
décor, and amenities offered. B&B styles range from elegant to
rustic, and everything in between. There are other differences between a B&B and a motel that guests
should be aware of. Bed & Breakfasts do not have a front desk staff
or 24-hour phone coverage. Innkeepers are most easily reached by phone
or email between the hours of 10 AM and 9 PM.
8.What type of breakfasts are served at B&B's?
Breakfast is one of the most enjoyable and memorable aspects of staying
at a B&B. And, as with everything else about B&Bs, nothing is
standardized. Whether your B&B serves a multi-course breakfast,
family style breakfast, breakfast buffet, or continental breakfast, you
can be sure that your innkeepers' attention to ingredients, taste, and
presentation will result in a mouthwatering experience.
9. May I smoke in the B&B?
As a general rule, B&Bs do not allow smoking inside their
buildings. This is due to insurance requirements, the well-being of the
B&B, and the comfort of other guests. In fact, some B&Bs will
charge you a significant cleaning fee if you choose to ignore their
smoking policy.
10. Are B&B's a good choice for business travelers?
Yes! In recent years many B&Bs have added amenities that cater to
the business traveler. High speed internet access, desks, flexible
check-in & check-out times, flexible breakfast times, and intimate
meeting facilities are now offered in many B&Bs. Special mid-week
rates are also commonly available for business travelers. These
factors, combined with the safe, relaxing environment of a B&B, are
making many business travelers re-think their customary lodging
choices. Try a Bed & Breakfast on your next business trip, and we
think you'll agree!
