Diane was the winner of CABBI's 2007 Gift Certificate Giveaway and won herself a $1,000 CABBI gift certificate toward future travel.

Diane stayed at three CABBI-certified inns in 2007 -- which earned her eligibility to the giveaway. According to Diane, B&Bs are the perfect solution to both business and personal travel because of the great personal service and unique accommodations that larger hotels don't offer.

When asked why she prefers B&Bs, Diane explained: "Bed and Breakfast Inns have so much personality. They are usually in amazing historic homes and the innkeepers pour a lot of love and pride into their property. I appreciate that - and also appreciate their personal stories and advice on exploring the area where they are located."
