2 3 4 5 [Next] - It's a good idea to do some research about a bed and breakfast before you visit - your idea of 'romantic' may be very different from someone else's! But remember that many guidebook authors stay for free when reviewing a bed and breakfast, and thus you may have to read between the lines to get an idea of the place. Does 'cozy' mean comfortable or cramped? Does 'friendly' mean gracious or intrusive? Read carefully, and whenever possible, consult visitors' reviews. Many e-mail discussion lists and sites on the web allow guests to share their experiences. After your stay, return the favor and write your own review! Mallory McCreary, Shake Off The City ID1169 - My travel tip is simple: if you want to find information about accommodations in the area, visit the local pub. On one such occasion, talking with a local introduced me to a wonderful place called Capel Dewi Uchaf Country House, in Carmarthenshire, Wales. I love staying in bed and breakfast accommodations and travelling around unknown territory. Hotels are great, but I have found that bed and breakfast establishments offer visitors a unique view of the location that they are exploring. I found great pubs and historical sites that you are never likely to see in any travel books. Visit the WalesInStyle.com website to find more travel tips and tricks about how to enjoy bed and breakfasts and other holidays in Wales. Peter ID2206 - Many bed and breakfasts are not handicap-accessible. Make sure to notify the innkeeper and request a room on the main floor. Tim Matthews ID1544 - If your schedule allows you travel midweek or during off-peak times, consider using an American Historic Inns, Inc. guidebook. Many of these guides contain Buy-One-Night-Get-One-Night-Free Certificates. Savings can range from $50-$600 per use. Visit www.ILoveInns.com and search thousands of participating inns and others described by American Historic Inns, Inc. ILoveInns.com ILoveInns.com ID1170 - Most B&Bs are located in 'residential' neighbourhoods, so when you are using a taxi to reach your destination, please be sure to explain this to the taxi driver. It is also a good idea to ask your host about the cross streets so that you can provide this info to the driver. Avoid unnecessary or undesired 'tours' of neighbourhoods while your driver searches fruitlessly for a hotel-like structure. Ask first, tour later.
