Other types of facilities-nontraditional lodging-provide their customers with basic lodging: bed-and-breakfasts, YMCA/YWCAs and YMHA/YWHAs, rooming houses, and missions. The YMCA/YWCA and local boarding houses have largely been replaced with extended-stay hotels. Bed-and-breakfasts have gained in popularity at a slow but steady rate over the past few years. Primary reasons for this are the opportunity to experience a more family/homey-type atmosphere, usually in a desirable location, and to get away from the crowds.
