Editorial Review
By Peter and Allison Fischer
 The book "There is Room at the Inn" by Candy B. Harrington is a great book to read if you want to find an accessible Bed and Breakfast anywhere in the country. The book is very easy to read, very informative, and gives contact information such as a phone number and an email address. This is nice because if someone wants to clarify some of the information or book a room, he/she can get a hold of the hotels easily. The book contains good pictures of the spacious rooms. I really like how the descriptions of the Bed and Breakfasts include information about ramps and bathroom accommodations such as grab bars and roll-in showers. Since my husband and I both have arthritis, and my husband is in a wheelchair, this book will be very useful to us when we are trying to find accessible places to stay.
