inns

But that means that people aren't opening small stores and small restaurants, and small inns like they used to.

There are inns in Japan and breweries in Germany that have been around for centuries with relatively little change.

And a hint: four centuries ago Batic Sea was freezing seasonally, so people could even build inns on it.

It's pretty interesting if you don't have any familiarity with traditional Japanese inns.

And if you talk to people who live next to inns, they don't usually rate it as a net positive, particularly if the establishment serves alcohol.

All inns built after La Quinta #505 were built...

When he arrived, most of the town's inns were already full, and he had to make do with a small room in a small in in a run-down part of the town.

I had slight hope for a renaissance of decentralized Usenet service (instead of the big two: T-Online and Uni Berlin), when a very influential netizen posted a "how to run your INN, and you get a feed from me" on his blog and dozens of small, personal INNs sprang up.

We could not buy ice cream at Howard Johnson's, or stay in Holiday Inns.

I noticed lately that mid-range hotels (Hamptons and Holiday Inns) generally turn out to be quite competitive price-wise.

Inns are estimated to have existed for over 2000 years.
