This property would have scored better but as there was still a condom in the bathroom the experience was soured. On notifying front desk the offending condom was removed and a little disinfectant was sprayed in the area. We were not offered another room. A photo of the condom in situ was to be sent to the general manager. I have not any contact or offical apology from Mercure even after 3 days.

Upon my arrival the receptionist was awesome, I had just driven 10 hours and was so exhausted, down and out, but chatting with the receptionist she was very friendly and professional and she was so funny my checking in was a breeze and she made sure everything was ready because I checked in after midnight, that was a bonus for me, there was a false alarm n at about 8:30pm on Monday night and my shower in the room just kept flooding the bathroom and water also started to flowed out into the entrance just outside the the bathroom door, the location was great other than the shower issue and the false alarm everything else was awesome definitely staying there again because the staff were awesome!!!! Thank you Mercure Kawana Waters!🌺🌺

Room was good. I didn't think the shower plug hole was actually at the lowest point. Seemed to get water collate at the back and seep onto floor. Other than that is was pretty good.

Great stay
All really nice - lovely staff, modern room with comfortable bed. Only strange thing was with the shower. There’s a huge waterfall shower head, however it’s too much water for the drain, so was spilling out of the shower and had to put towels down to stop it going onto the carpet. I had noticed the water damage to the carpet the night before and had wondered how that happened. Otherwise all really great, and highly recommended
