First stay in the Mercure - - better than the Bhally, where I had stayed before. Clean, new, well located on the main drag by the beach. I stayed off-season at a rate of ~ US$95 per night with a view room on 6th floor. Small gym and pool. Breakfast was included rate. Internet was an issue - - must pay separately; wireless sitting in lobby was the best connection. Lots of restaurants in either direction - - beware, most plates have enough food for two or more people.
