They provide no top sheet. I had to ask. It's a tired old place with unpleasant smells. It was clean though and the people were lovely. The price is right if you just need a place to sleep.

Resort is ok. Meghan at front desk is awesome! The hotel is old but pretty clean. Tiki bar is really loud in the afternoons when the music starts. Had or room windows and art on our walls rattling for hours. Pool is right next to public bar so only feels usuable in morning. Otherwise you're the bars entertainment besides the live music. Food was ok. Works when you dont want to go out. A little pricy. Hotel is very reasonably priced. Would recommend rooms need updating badly. Music from bar toned down just a bit.
