5.0 out of 5 stars get away and save a bundle, February 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Bed & Breakfasts and Country Inns (Paperback)

this book gives you a great selection of bed and breakfasts around the country and a certificate for a free second night's stay - you can't beat it! my husband and i go to a B&B every anniversary, so we already know we will be staying one night. that second night makes all the difference and this book makes it possible. we sent my parents for a two night get-away, made possible by the certificate in the additional book we purchased.

each B&B has a brief description as well as a list of rates, amenities, bed sizes, number of rooms, innkeepers' names, and meals included and offered. even after you use the certificate, it is a valuable resource for deciding where to spend your next retreat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Add some pizzazz to your vacation stays, April 15, 2002

This review is from: Bed & Breakfasts and Country Inns (Bed and Breakfasts and Country Inns, 13th Ed) (Bed and Breakfasts and Country Inss, 13th ed) (Paperback)

The discovery of "Bed and Breakfasts and Country Inns" has greatly enhanced my family's vacation experience. The variety of inns and accomodations has been amazing. We have used the book on both coasts and have not been disappointed one time. Even though we are always on a budget, the wonderful 2 for 1 coupon allows us to go places we normally could not afford.

My hat off to the publisher, editor, and producer of this very fine listing--the book's ease of use and tremendous value and breadth deserves at least one trial. My family and I look forward to the little "sidetrips" that naturally come with going with something a little different.
