Guest comments from a B&B "virgin"

Sunday, June 21, 2009 by Heather Tyreman

Ferguson Ridge Room at the Bronze Antler Bed and Breakfast Joseph Oregon lodgingSometimes we have a guest that has never stayed at a bed and breakfast before--we call that guest a "B&B virgin" for short.   Often, it's the husband who is reluctant to stay at a bed and breakfast.  His major concerns:

"The bathroom's down the hall and I have to share it with people I don't know."

"I have to talk at breakfast."

"There's too much lace and there are dolls or teddybears everywhere."

At the Bronze Antler Bed & Breakfast, each one of our rooms has its own attached, private bath.  There's never going down the hall to the bathroom and certainly no sharing!

Breakfast is served starting as early as 7:30 a.m. and as late as 9:00 a.m., so if you don't want to talk to anyone, you can choose a time convenient for you.

Lace?  We don't have any.  And no dolls or teddybears either (unless you count the rubber ducky in the bathtub).  In fact, we call jokingly ourselves a "no frills B&B" just for that reason.

Here's a recent guest comment from the wife of a former B&B virgin:

My husband's first B&B experience was indeed memorable!  He will not have a better guide to judge from.  The "cookie" was wonderful.  Such a smart couple you are.  Heather, you do understand you are THE COOKIE.  We so enjoyed the wonderful atmosphere, food, visit and thoughtful 'extras.'  Good luck and God Bless-- J&G, Idaho

It's so much fun to introduce guests to the bed and breakfast experience.  If you're looking for a romantic getaway Oregon style or just a nice place to stay, a bed and breakfast can be a great alternative to Joseph Oregon hotels or a Wallowa Lake hotel.
