Bed and breakfasts typically are homeowner-run operations, and can include historical or multi-owner commercial properties with one bedroom to rent upwards of twenty rooms that more closely resemble the traditional definition of an "inn". One thing most of the properties have in common is a focus on customer service, individually decorated rooms, and a home-cooked-style breakfast (src: wikipedia)
