Cool, thanks! I have stayed in a B&B exactly once, in Ireland, in the late 90s. I did not care much for it. Maybe it was the one I stayed in, but I really felt like I was staying in a home, with other strangers, and it was kinda awkward. We really like the anonymity of a hotel. Did I just have a weird experience, or am I too introverted to enjoy a stay like a B&B?
Also, being in a suburb sounds like a hassle, but I never ventured outside London downtown when I was there last (only stayed 48 hours and hardly remember it). Are the burbs the same type of thing they are here in the states? Call me weird, but I like being in a busy city, minutes away from a deli or pub, or museum. On Thursday, February 9, 2012, Erika L.
