Typically, staying at a bed and breakfast offers a more personal experience than staying at a hotel. If you choose to, you can interact directly with the innkeeper and other guests, something that isn't always practical at a hotel.  B&Bs have fewer rooms than most hotels, and they are often located in converted historic properties or converted homes.  The breakfasts, which usually are included in the room rate, tend to be topnotch.
