Understaffed and overpriced

The site us having renovations done, but that was not an issue. The service from the shuttle bus which is dirty, to check in which is tardy, to the standard of the room booked, the place is a mess. The walkway to my original room had overflowing rubbish bin and laundry bins on the walkway, the room was truly awful; door with chipped paint and dirty, carpet dirty, walls with marks on them. I complained and was given an upgrade, but from arrival to the other room took 1.5 hours. Next morning, couldn't even get a coffee as there are not enough staff; I was the only person who had to leave without breakfast.- Mercure - never again.

Stayed at a FIFO camp

The compact room was nice enough but reminded me of a worker camp. Shuttle to the airport was prompt as I got it just as some FIFO workers were heading over for a early morning flight. The restaurant was busy and had table service but the staff didn't seem to have sections as I had different servers asking if I needed to order.

We frequently stay at this hotel but were disappointed this time when our $399 room (for one night) had a broken shower. We found this out in the morning when we went to use it! Very disappointing that this had not been picked up by the cleaner or reported by the previous guest. Waste of money!
