I went to The Merit in North Cyprus and I had a very good time but I cannot rate the Hotel as 5 stars, I will give 3 stars, the rooms were very basic and in need of redecoration, the Gym have very old equipment, the swimming pool is good and the gardens around are beautiful the staff is very helpful and the food in the restaurants were "average", the location is good and they have a nice sunbathing area by the pier, overall a good place to spend a few days without the luxury of a 5 star hotel
