Yes it is similar to the moons surface
yes it does
Mercuries surface has many craters on it and its surface temp can reach 590k!!
It appears to have many rocky valleys and ridges, and innumerable impact craters.
Craters!!
Mercury has no atmosphere and no surface fluids, so there is nothing to erode the craters.
craters
Craters, mostly. The new Messenger photos of Mercury from just last week show craters on craters, and chains of craters. It looks a lot like the Moon, actually. You can see some photos of Mercury at the link below.
Mercury's surface is covered in craters on approximately 45% of its surface. These craters were formed by impacts from meteoroids and asteroids over millions of years, due to Mercury's lack of atmosphere to protect its surface.
This mostly happened due to many meteorites and comets bombarding the surface of the planet.

Mercury
The surface of Mercury is covered with craters, plains, and ridges. It also has volcanic plains and impact craters formed by collisions with asteroids and comets. The planet's surface is rocky and heavily cratered due to its lack of atmosphere to protect it from impacts.
