Friendly but tired

A good job they put no frills in their description. This place has a lovely friendly welcome and is clean. But it is tired and worn. That's ok,just,but not for £70 a night. To describe the room as a Suite, is misleading

Alison

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The carpet had holes, the bathroom layout was too cramped, the shower door wasn't on its track properly and fell off at the first touch, and the room was stiflingly hot and couldn't be made comfortable. If the curtains had been pulled across earlier in the day against the sun, it would have helped. The bed headboard smells funny - cigarette smoke? And the backyard was rather squalid with old chairs and junk. Great location, lovely staff, could be a fabulous joint with good management and modest investment.

Good value, strange hotel

Simply put, this is a value for money hotel. Great location for trains, prison and centre and the staff are friendly. A few strange quirks make it unique but may put people off. Entering and exiting through the pub, a very narrow staircase and the shower/bathroom are not suited for larger proportioned guests.

Fabulous accommodation for an over night stay in Shrewsbury for a really good budget price. Clean and very comfy. Loved all the old features in the room. Staff were welcoming and with easy walking access to everything Shrewsbury has to offer. Would definitely book again.

I have never walked out of a property before this in 30-something-years and I don’t like to leave negative comments but they don’t have onsite parking as advertised. I travel by motorcycle so onsite parking is a requirement and that’s why I booked this place only to find out parking was down the road. My window backed onto the beer garden on a Friday night. No thanks! The rooms were above the pub and the whole thing was just ordinary. How people gave them a 7.6 on Expedia I don’t know?!

Weekend for Two

Stayed for two nights over a weekend. Couldn't fault the staff they were very friendly and helpful. The room was adequate, bed comfortable and had a small shower room/toilet which needed a bit of TLC. Room had everything necessary for a short stay i.e. ironing board and iron, hairdryer, small fan which was a godsend as our room was in full sun all day. We were on the third floor, so lots and lots of stairs (no lift, but we did know that before booking), so not for you if you have any mobility issues. Probably wouldn't stay again, due to this but all in all, not a bad stay.

Well impressed

1st time my brother & I have stayed here. We were well impressed. Our room was lovely & warm. Beds comfy. Plenty of tea , coffee etc. large LCD TV in the room. Bathroom was a bit small but acceptable. Given the price of £63 we were more than happy & would book to stay here again.

We seriously contemplated not staying at all! Check in was here's an envelope your rooms up the stairs! the stairs and corridors were like stepping back into the 70s, dingy with a really musty smell. Mouldy ceilings .. The room well to say it's not like the pictures on the website would be an understatement. Holes in the walls filthy windows, bathroom door that wouldn't close, shower i wouldn't even step in. The bed at least the sheets were clean but in terms of comfort..none existent. I realise this is a relatively cheap room above a pub but in terms of any kind of comfort there was none. Grim is the term that springs to mind. The most welcoming part was the security staff on the door😂. All in all a Terrible experience I'm afraid to say
