| Reason number one hundred and fifty six of why Brooklyn is an awesome borough: lack of tourists. That's right -- aside from a few Best Westerns and the occasional Botanical Garden/Beacon's Closet visitor, Brooklyn is free from snow globes and hot peanuts, slow-walkers and double-decker buses ... it's a civilized and humble place to stay when in New York. For those who accommodate themselves in Brooklyn, or for New Yorkers who feel like holing up to read, take a hot bath, and escape their roommate's recent flu-driven Gossip Girl marathon, bed & breakfasts are the recommended medium. After the jump, some of Brooklyn's best B&Bs -- some, if you can believe it, not even in Park Slope.
