The property looks nice from outside and inside on the ground floor. Its close to major shopping malls in Manama. The staff is polite and helpful. However, it is disappointing when you stay in it for a few days:
First, cleanliness is a problem, a patch on the lounge desk pad and the lounge pillow as well as dirty floor, they need a cleaning supervisor who goes over the cleaning process and makes sure everything is up to the Mercure standards as I stayed in Mercure hotels in other countries, its very different.
Second, I had a leaky water boiling pot (luckily I wasn't electrocuted), the staff managed to change it.
Third, the fridge was freezing all the time which ruined the food I bought despite multiple attempts of the staff to fix it.
My advice to the managers of this property is look around and find out how hotels at the same level are being managed and cleaned in neighbouring countries (or even the same country).
