Why I Enjoy Staying At A Bed & Breakfast

By: Patti Rob

Since I was a child I have loved to travel, and thankfully I have a job that is flexible enough for me to continue doing so. I am often limited by my budget though so the reality of that is I look for the best possible deals I can. Even though I want to travel cheap, I want to have quality accommodations. I also want to dine on foods that I am going to remember as I savor each bite.

I used to stay in various hotels, but quickly got tired of the atmosphere. They just don't seem to care to give their guests personal attention. That is unless you are staying in a four star hotel that costs you hundreds of dollars a night. I would rather stay at a lovely bed and breakfast found online for a decent price that does offer such personal service.

That is why I decided to give up hotels and pursue quality bed & breakfast locations. Many of them are among the best kept secrets in the world. Of course you will find some that are poorly managed, but anyone that wants to have a good business in this area needs to take care of the customers. I enjoy being greeted when I arrive, getting information on events and attractions in the area, and feeling like I can approach the staff with any questions I may have.

I also love the home cooking. When you travel as often as I do, you quickly tire of greasy foods from fast food restaurants and I really don't like to dine in a restaurant alone. I have eaten a variety of different foods at bed & breakfast locations. I have also had the pleasure of meeting some really great people - both the staff members of the bed & breakfast and other guests.

Sometimes I feel sorry for the people that operate such businesses though. They don't seem to be having too much fun. It makes you want to ask them why they got into the business in the first place. I always enjoy a bed & breakfast more if I get the impression that they owner loves what they do and they are proud of their establishment.

I used to just take my chances with a bed & breakfast, but now I am picky about where I make my reservations. I think this has to do with me being spoiled - I have had so many pleasant experiences in these places that I don't want any bad memories. There are a few that I have stayed at more than once just because I absolutely loved it.

This is going to offer you much better information than just going to a search engine, pulling up bed & breakfasts, and looking at the pictures. Don't ruin your dream stay at a bed & breakfast by booking one without doing your research. Your travel plans need to be fun and memorable. Trust me, there are plenty of excellent bed & breakfast locations out there that you can choose from so don't settle for anything less.

I steer clear of those that have a constant report of not living up to expectations. After all, why waste my money on an unpleasant experience? Those that get rave reviews go onto my list so that when I travel that way I can stay there. Of course the price is a factor for me as well but I find if I travel during the week I get better rates than on the weekends. You can be sure I return home to post my own reviews of the various bed & breakfasts that I stay in as well.
