B&B tipping?

kaos16 · January 2013

We are staying at a B&B for part of our Maui trip in a few weeks. I have only ever stayed at a B&B once before, and I didn't pay (my boyfriend at the time did) As such, I don't know if you are supposed to tip or anything. Any thoughts?

I have never stayed at a B&B, but aren't they usually run by the homes owner so wouldn't that go under the "you don't tip the owner of a company" rule?

I don't know, but when it comes to tips, I tip when the service I receive is amazing and I don't tip if the service I receive is horrible, no matter who the owner or whatever may be.

That's what I was thinking too. I feel like it could be a situation where if the place is good you right some stellar reviews online and call it a day.
