Romantic getaway, not family vacation

Breakfast not included, restaurant attached was slightly overpriced for the quality, not the quantity of food. Rooms and shared bath super clean.

Wish parking was easier. I wish a free parking pass for a garage would have been nice. Also we didn’t receive a free breakfast. Didn’t know that was available. Otherwise beautiful and clean with a wonderful soaking pool.
