The amount of money you can expect to make all depends on the size of your property, the area you're located in and how luxurious your property is, but at the end of the day running a bed and breakfast is certainly not a get-rich-quick scheme. Or at least, if you treat it like one you'll be sorely disappointed.

Bed and breakfast (typically shortened to B&B or BnB) is a small lodging establishment that offers overnight accommodation and breakfast. Bed and breakfasts are often private family homes and typically have between four and eleven rooms, with six being the average.

Hotels are usually larger and have a more formal setting. Personalized Service: B&Bs offer personalized service as the owners or hosts are often present on-site, providing a warm and attentive experience. Hotels may have more staff but offer a more standardized service.

Included in the price of the stay, breakfast is served fresh every morning when you stay at a bed and breakfast. While many hotels now offer complimentary breakfast, it's usually the same few items day after day.
