We stayed at Hotel Merce for 11 nights on a bed & breakfast package. Firstly the positives: - The Reception staff, bar staff & Cleaners were all very friendly & the Reception staff were also very helpful. - The location was perfect. With the hotel being situated in the old town it was very peaceful, yet within a 5 minute walk you were on the main strip full of shops & restaurants. The beach & train station were only a 15 minute walk away. - Breakfast was varied and plentiful, a good choice of everything from cereals, fresh fruits, meats and cheeses to various sweet pastries and cooked food….. bacon, eggs, sausages & beans. There were 2 drinks machines, one for hot drinks & the other for various juices & water. - The room was just the right size for 2 of us, with a decent size balcony and a great air conditioning system which was appreciated after a day in the hot weather. Our shower room had recently been refurbished & the shower was great. - Sun beds were readily available, even in August. Now the negatives: - The pool was on the small side so you couldn’t really swim in it as it didn’t take having many people in the pool for it to be busy. - If you want to swim to cool off you need to do so in the morning because by the afternoon the pool was so warm it was like getting into a bath. (This will only apply in the hot summer months) - our room had not been deep cleaned on arrival as there were hairs on the shelves - There is no fridge in the room so no way of keeping drinks cool and there is no kettle in the room. We took our own travel kettle, mugs and tea bags & just bought longlife milk from the supermarket. - bare in mind that this hotel accepts dogs & for our last 4 days there, the family in the room next door would go out all day & leave the little dog yapping all day. Overall the positives did outweigh the negatives…….. would we stay here again…… yes we would!
