Americans like to travel on vacations. Today more and more travellers in the United States are
spending nights at small houses or inns instead of hotels. They get a room for the night and the breakfast
for the next morning.
Rooms for the night in private homes with breakfast places have become popular in the United
States. Many of these America's bed - and - breakfast places are old historic buildings. Some
bed - and - breakfast inns have only a few rooms. Others are much larger. Some inns do not provide
telephones or televisions in the rooms while others do.
Staying at a bed-and-breakfast inn is much different from staying at a hotel. Usually the cost is much
less. Staying at an inn is almost like visiting someone's home. The owners are glad to tell about the area
and the interesting places to visit. Many vacationists say they enjoy the chance to meet local families.
