Disappointing

I was put into a disabled person room where the aircon wasn't working properly, so we were hot all night and the bathroom vanity light wasn't working either. The room was so bright from the breezeway light being on that I couldn't sleep properly, kept waking up thinking I had slept in. The Mecure pool is in need of some major maintenance, and the new big pool had lots of bugs floating in it, and closed at 7pm. I have stayed at the Mecure many times and generally always been happy with the service

Love the pool area for families. The stairwell smelt of urine. Had to ask and wait for hot water and milk at the buffet breakfast. Not fair to have to pay for parking close to rooms with small children.

Short overnight stay

We chose the mecure on the basis of the pool, as it looked the nicest. Very pleased with our stay, rang for the shuttle and it arrived within 5-10 minutes. Quick check in, pleasant enough room, functional with comfortable beds and a good shower. Make time for the pool as it’s really good, a great start to our holiday. All staff friendly and helpful.

Liked: Cleanliness
The check in process took over an hour due to insufficient staff and resources to deal with the volume of people. At best the room is equivalent to a three star motel, with two flat pillows on the bed and no amenities such as bottled water, tea/coffee etc. The shower was adequate but not great. Staff seemed inclined to give you any plausible answer rather than say they don’t know. Not particularly helpful. Swimming pool looks awesome though.
