Lovely room, amazing bed. Clean and tidy. Staff are helpful and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. Close to parking and town. Our only issue was it could do with better curtains or blackout blinds for the street lights. It wasn’t the quietest of places but you are on the side of a main street so all in all we would recommend it

Excellent staff, very polite and helpful. Situated right in the centre of Shrewsbury so ideally placed. Our room was compact, but had everything that we needed and it was clean and tidy. The only downside was the heat of the rooms, meaning we needed to have windows open on a busy road. There was a fan in our room. The room was noisy but being directly above a pub was what we expected, plus probably hard to insulate for this in a building of that age! Overall, good value for money and well positioned for a weekend away.

Great drinks options and 10% off on food and drink when showing your room key. Only downside, there was no breakfast option, but Greggs and Subway on the corner, or lots of other cafes nearby.

Friendly, helpful staff. Clean room, could do with a refresh but had everything we needed. Bed was too soft and tilts down towards the head so quite uncomfortable. Generally fine though.
