 Not all B&B inns offer identical service. Be aware that most bed and breakfast inns offer exactly that, a sumptuous, mouth watering breakfast and a bedroom decorated in a way that will be just as much a treat as the breakfast. That might be accomplished with antique furnishings or with the most modern computer and communication access.

Some locations offer different services. For example, a bed and breakfast located on a secluded mountain top in North Carolina, overlooking a vast vista of mountains and forests, might offer all meals because you will not have easy access to outside restaurants. Such an inn is offering you peaceful and glorious seclusion in the midst of nature's beauty.

 You may find that some inns do not provide a full breakfast or any breakfast at all. Some offer use of a community kitchen, some offer a Continental breakfast. Some offer restaurant services. Some offer a bottomless cookie jar and coffee pot and/or complimentary wine at certain times.
