I remember one where they'd called themselves an inn, so charged for breakfast--an exorbitant amount. I had to suffer through a screaming match between the owner and her daughter, then she admitted she'd forgotten we ordered breakfast, so she was going out to buy us yogurt and granola while we waited to check out and leave. She refused to refund us the breakfast money. I was LIVID. I ate the f--ing yogurt. Yes, I’m sure there’s several books worth of B&B horror stories waiting to be written.

It's the only B&B type place I've ever liked.
