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.

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.
