Paisley Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 forgive me on planning ahead, but i wanted to know if anyone wanted to split a hotel room together. as long as i'm not in the same room with black jack, royaliste, or scupper i think i'll be safe (lol). i did find an amerisuite in atlantic beach that has a bedroom (with 2 double beds or 1 king) and has a sleeper sofa for $150 a night. i might bring my son... anyone game?
