This time we were surprised to find the free breakfast replaced by a restaurant. Not sure if that's only in-season, but it was empty both days we were there. Not that differentiated from others in that area now unfortunately. Plus one night our next door neighbor's dog barked for 2 hours straight while the owner was out."
