As for breakfast, that's where Bed and Breakfasts get their name. Your stay will generally include a very well prepared gourmet breakfast. Most Bed and Breakfasts go out of their way to make breakfast a memorable meal. Remember, however - that it is always best to ask. Bed and Breakfasts are generally individually owned and operated.
Breakfast can vary.
Some establishments supply cakes and muffins and allow you serve yourself. The best way to not be disappointed is to ask. Compared to hotels, most Bed and Breakfasts are built into smaller, older structures. There are, of course, larger Bed and Breakfasts that are built into old plantations and other buildings of historical interest, but even amongst the larger structures there remains a uniqueness about each individual Bed and Breakfast. What is missing is the cookie cutter appearance that you may have experienced with other types of establishments.
