Very nice over night stop to break up long journey

A night to break up the journey from southern Italy back to Calais, 24 hour reception, so we didn't have the stress of having to arrive by a set time, our son loved that the room as like "a little house" in his eyes with the living room downstairs and the sleeping area up, odd that the only English speaking channel was Bloomberg which we haven't experienced in a Mecure before...but it didn't matter as we were only staying the night, breakfast in the morning was lovely

The facilities were great, especially with the gym. There was a very small pool but a decent sized hot tub. At about 9.15 am the pool filled up with all the locals who had come to hang out. Quite humourous to see them all bobbing about in the water! There were lots of pieces of gym equipment, it was actually very well equipped. The whole place just needs a lick of paint and it would be great. Breakfast was lovely. I would call it continental plus. There was a great selection of teas and coffees! The bar was well stocked and well done out. The room was fine, standard really.

Disliked: Staff & service
Environnement bruyant, chambre moyennement entretenue (Moisissures dans salle de bains, vitre cassée donnant sur la voix ferrée...) Mais surtout un accueil et un professionnalisme tout simplement lamentable. 18h45 nous arrivons et faisons notre check-in, nous sommes accueilli par une dame peu aimable - nous l'avions déjà noté vu l'accueil fait aux clientes devant nous ). Bref peu importe son côté aigri, nous n'y pretons que peu d'importance et faisons notre check-in. nous en profitons pour ui demander une table au restaurant pour 19h/19h15. Elle nous répond sèchement que le restaurant est complet pour la soirée même pour les clients de l'hôtel. Elle nous dit d'aller voir dans le centre ville à pied qu'il y a des restaurants. Fatigués, nous posons nos valises et repartons directement à pied. Après 10/12 min de marche dans le froid et à travers un quartier peu rassurant nous trouvons un restaurant qui nous accueille bien volontiers. 20h30 env Diner finit nous rentrons à l'hôtel à pied (de nouveau 10/12 min à pied). 20h40 nous arrivons à l'hôtel et là surprise, nous constatons que le restaurant de l'hôtel est au 3/4 vide. 4 ou 5 tables sont occupées. Contrarié et fatigué, j'appelle la fameuse dame pour lui signifier et elle se confond en excuses/raisons bidon. Bref, cette dame doit changer de métier si elle ne veut pas être au service des clients. Fidèle client Mercure depuis des années, j'avoue que cette expérience m'a quelque fois refroidi. bref à éviter

Nous avons logé aux appartements du mercure, car nous étions deux adultes et un enfant de 14 ans . Le prix reste correcte 143 € avec petit déjeuner. Attention ⚠️ une caution de 50€ par personnes et demander par empreinte CB. Employés très agréable.
