Guest houses are kind of lodging. In some parts of the world, guest houses are a type of inexpensive hotel-like lodging. In others, it is a private home that has been converted for the exclusive use of lodging.
The owner usually lives in an entirely separate area within the property and the guest house may serve as a form of lodging business.

Security wise
Generally, there are two variations of paying guest house:
A. Home converted guest house
B. Professionally run guest house with all necessary amenities and staff
In the first version of the guest house the guest probably has to live with a family where they get shelter and food (bed and breakfast) only and for the rest of the jobs like washing clothes and utensils, cleaning of room or area around their bed is to be done by the guest.
In the second version, the guest receives the all necessary amenities which are required to live life comfortably like a fully furnished room, comfortable bed, air-conditioner, TV, hot and cold water supply, and also one important aspect, security.
A big plus point of a professionally run paying guest accommodation service is that the owner follows the safety norms set by their local government. Some of the important safety points are:
A. Fire safety with regular fire drills
B. Disaster management
C. Updated safety equipment
