Why you should stay at a B&B

Bed and Breakfasts are not just for leisure and vacation travel anymore. B&Bs, while still offering romantic getaways, provide the business travelers a better value for their travel dollar. Most B&Bs, check with individual owners, are equipped with dataports, and/or FREE Wi-Fi. Most innkeepers will accommodate their business travelers with a breakfast that will fit their schedule.

B&Bs provide ambience, privacy, better food, more comfortable accommodation and the same amount of convenience as a hotel. EABBA-member B&Bs provide you not only find a place to rest your head, but a home away from home.

What are some of the reasons why staying at an inn or B&B is superior to staying at a hotel or motel?

• More personal, more private.
  The homey, comfortable atmosphere of a B&B means you are free to get to know other guests and the proprietors themselves. Should you desire or require undisturbed privacy, however, your hosts will ensure that you have it.
• Greater variety of locations
  Hotels tend to cluster: out near the airport, in the center of town, at certain points along a highway. EABBA-member B&Bs, however, can be found in many different locations, from residential neighborhoods, to the heart of downtown, to forested areas far outside city limits. Whether you wish to be around downtown attractions or nightlife, or if on your honeymoon or vacation you want to feel secluded or be closer to the great outdoors, you will find properties that suit your needs and desires.
• Local knowledge
  Your proprietors always know what's going on around town, and will be happy to recommend restaurants, events, and shopping. For more rural locations, your hosts also will be able to tell you about outdoor activities and worthwhile sights and excursions.
• Like home away from home
  Crackling fireplaces, riverfront gazebos, gourmet breakfasts, kind and welcoming folks... It is sometimes possible to find a hotel with such amenities – at a cost – but these and other comforts are standard at inns and B&Bs. Relax, play; at a B&B, you can truly make yourself at home.
