B and Bs
Small inn alternatives
B and Bs is the plural of B and B, an informal way of writing bed-and-breakfast—a small lodging establishment that provides overnight accommodation and morning meal, typically in a converted private home: We stayed at charming B and Bs along the coast.
The abbreviation appears in travel writing and casual conversation more than formal contexts.
