What is the allure of a B&B?

[Anonymous]

I see a lot of people looking for B&B recommendations. Why? What kinds of activities do B&Bs offer? How are they better than hotels?

There are fewer people there than in a hotel. It's more a "home away from home" than a hotel is.

They are often quaint, more personal, unique. The ones I've stayed at have had big breakfast tables and the owner makes you what you want to eat (from a select, small menu). For me it's not about the activities but the atmosphere. I like hotels just fine as well though. Typically I like to try and find a cute B&B if I'm staying in a smaller town.

I don't do activities. I like hanging out with owners at breakfast. Getting recommendations about what to do in town

I like the ambiance. They're usually in cool older buildings with creaky wooden floors and all kinds of knick-knacks. I love snooping through all of the albums and memorabilia.

I like them because you generally can get nicer room, nicer breakfast, better ambience, less noise (because less people) for same or better price.

Yes, but the peace and quiet, and creaky floors, make sex noise more difficult to contain.

This is what confuses me: if you want a place for a romantic weekend, why do you want to go someplace where people will hear your romance?

I think the rooms are much cuter/nicer than regular hotels.

Feels more personal, less corporate. But yes, the thin walls, plus the lack of a gym, always dissuades me.

Dumpy.

Maybe one day I'll reserve a B&B for the charm, history, and beauty, and a nearby hotel for the high volume bangin

I never think the B&Bs are clean enough but they're probably cleaner than hotels.

Ha. My wife and I always laugh about how we just don't ge the B&B mystique. The owner is always weird, you end up forced into talking to strangers that you are not interested in, there is always at least one weird and nonsensical rule, and when all is said and done they cost more than a hotel
