    The bathroom was big but had an old smell about it, wasn’t too pleasant. I also didn’t like the thin toilet paper and the toiletries were awful. If they spent 20p on a roll of Andrex and 20p on unrefillerable toiletries I would have been happier. That wouldn’t bite into their profits and would be a lot better for the customer.

    The location wasn’t too far from the town and it has free parking which is a bonus.

    Unexciting but good location

    There was not a strong enough shower & hot water was sporadic. The rooms are in an annexe at the back with a cramped slightly damp smelling staircase to access our room, but once inside our room it was fine. It seemed expensive for what it was, but Shrewsbury is generally expensive to stay in. Would look elsewhere before booking again.

    It is in a good location to walk the 15 mins into the main centre, where parking isn't easy. The room was warm, well furnished & had 2 armchairs which made it a bit squashed but was worth it for the comfort. Plenty of drawers etc. It was quite quiet considering it's on a main access road. There were good cheap pubs with nice basic food nearby. The bathroom was a reasonable size.

    Sadly when we stayed the weather was -2 in the night and the heating had turned off by the time we got back at 11.30pm. It was so so cold with no option of putting the radiator back on.

    The host was most hospitable with accommodating us with a down stairs room. Very friendly and ideal location.

    Chairs and mattress are standard fare for a budget hotel. Not bad but I've had better. However I slept very well so it's no real issue.

    Location in the city, 15 mins walk from centre. Nice friendly staff, had a peaceful sleep in a reasonably comfy room. Convenient parking.

    The bedroom area was small and compact and it was a pity that breakfast was not available.

    The bathroom was spacious and airy and the complimentary tea, coffee, etc was replenished every day. The free off road parking was a bonus as was the location which is very good for getting into Shrewsbury town centre.
