Choosing your favorite room in a five-bedroom bed and breakfast may be intuitive (or if not, now you know to do that) but regardless of size, hotels often have options ranging beyond double and king rooms. Regardless of occupancy, ask the hotel if any rooms have been renovated recently – and make sure to ask if the bathroom was included in the renovation and if there’s a cost difference between newer and older rooms.
If you want an ocean or mountain view, ask. If you’re only going to be around at night, make sure you’re not paying a premium for a view you’ll barely see by seeing if rooms without a view (interior room) come at a discount.
