Is $250 (all in) for a bed and breakfast worth it? My GF seems think so but that’s a 3pm check in and 11am check out. Not sure the value is there?

If your girlfriend says it is, it is.

FWIW I think the bowl name is a bit odd too. This is absolutely an ok question to ask here though.

For me I'd say if it's a one off thing it's worth the extra $180 for significant other to not blame you if the pillows or bed firmness aren't perfect, if it is noisy or too hot, etc. If it was for a week or a regular thing I'd have the discussion of "hey we are spending $x,xxx more than we need to and we are just sleeping here then off to spend the entire day elsewhere, would you rather spend more on x or save up for y?"

$250 is steep for sure, but if it it makes your gf feel special and romantic then it’s probably worth the splurge

Um Kentucky or along the California coast? What kind of question is this ahaha.

Is it way nicer than the cheaper option? How much do you value the nicer breakfast? A compromise could be booking the cheaper one and splurging on a really nice meal

In the north east, the dive hotel is $250 with a 3 night minimum. Be grateful and pony up the $250.

What kind of breakfast we talking about ? Had a place offer a “breakfast “ served but ended up being some expired cereal with granola bars and definitely would look into the breakfast they are advertising
