The billboard on I-95 advertised rooms for $39.99 and continental breakfast. No rooms for this rate were available - rate was $45.99. The room was rather scary. There was only one light in the bedroom area, and it worked off of the switch next to the door. Light in the bathroom did not work, only the sun/heat lamp worked. Pictures had been taken off the wall and the holes just filled on the wall papered wall. Pool was empty (no water) end of August. Continental Breakfast consisted of a loaf of white bread, three cinnamon rolls, coffee, hot water, and a toaster. On the bright side, the bathroom surfaces were clean and the water pressure in the shower was very good. Bathroom had a body odor smell.
