Alla's Historical Bed and Breakfast Inn, Dallas

Fruit pie for breakfast? Yes, if you stay at Tuure B and B!

Advantages: A reasonable price for Finland, great breakfast, very clean and comfortable
Disadvantages: Rooms are quite small, lack of parking spaces may be a problem for some

This bed and breakfast is situated close to the bus station and just five minutes walk from the very centre of town. We arrived in Turku by train and walked the route in ten minutes so the location is good yet still quiet. Look hard, it's not easy to spot. The doorway looks like all the doorways on the block which is full of shops and offices. There is an entry buzzer to let you in; once you check in you'll have a key for this door. The B and B is up a couple of flights and there's no lift. It's not too bad but people with mobility problems should be aware of this. We hadn't booked in advance but there was a room available. We were checked in without fuss and while the owner wasn't effusive she was friendly enough. The bedrooms are off the main corridor as are the shared shower rooms. This does mean a certain amount of noise as ...

Review of Bed and Breakfast Tuure, Turku

FRIENDLY, INFORMAL and QUIET BED & BREAKFAST

Advantages: You are given your own front door's keys so you can come and go as you please.
Disadvantages: You will need to share the bathroom with the other room.

I stayed at this bed & breakfast in May 2009 and found it easygoing, friendly and comfortable. It is a very informal & quiet place; the best way to describe it is by saying that the rooms look like you are staying at your best (girl)friend's house for the week end (basically, it has a very homely feeling). It is ideal if you are visiting York for 2-3 days or for a quite week end there. £30 per person, per night. The owner can arrange for all sorts of breakfasts (special diets, etc) and she will cook them in the kitchen in front of your eyes while you sit at the table. It is about 10 min walk from the city centre and from the train station. ...

Review of York Alternative Bed & Breakfast, York

Spottydog11 does Dallas!!

Advantages: Great coverage, packaging
Disadvantages: A bit pricey

Spottydog11 does Dallas!! Benefit Dallas I am definitely a Benefit convert. Having tried quite a few of their products recently I have been won over and now like to treat myself to a few of their products now and again. Benefit is an America cosmetics company founded in 1976 by twin sisters in San Francisco. The girls are called Jean and Jane. Their vision was to create makeup with a whimsical candy store type theme. Nowadays the brand has over 1,000 makeup counters in more than 25 countries. What first attracted me to the Benefit counter was the brightness and girly prettiness of it all. There range looks so fun and quirky and exciting that I had to try it. I had also heard so much about it in the beauty press and magazines and from friends that I knew it had a great reputation already and so wanted to see what all the fuss ...
