This review is from: The Unofficial Guide to Bed & Breakfast in New England (Unofficial Guides) (Paperback)

If you are looking for the perfect book about B&Bs in New England (or about small Inns), I've found it for you. I have used this book and have found its information accurate and its prose elegant. Having visited many a B&B, I have made quite a few discoveries-thanks to this book-wonderful places I never would have found on my own. I recommend this book to all!
