A Bed and Breakfast (B&B) is a type of lodging that offers overnight accommodations and breakfast in a home-like setting. Typically, B&Bs are smaller than hotels and are often located in residential areas. Guests usually stay in private rooms, which may have unique decor and amenities, and they share common spaces with other visitors. The breakfast served at a B&B is often homemade and can vary from simple continental options to elaborate meals. Many B&Bs are run by local hosts who provide personalized service and local insights, making the experience more intimate and welcoming compared to larger hotels.
