The bar and restaurant are lovely and so are the staff.
Rooms tatty and require updating
Toilet would not flush
Entry details for after the bar is closed are not clear at all
When I eventually found the entry door a rather large drunk lady was blocking the entry, she was lay on the floor inside, preventing the door from opening, refused to be helped so I had to climb over her to get up stairs 😟

Staff exceptionally helpful. Food was outstanding and very reasonable. Room was lovely, with everything you need.
Lighting was very dim in the dressing area of the bedroom. I like ambient lighting don’t get me wrong but a better light when getting dressed or even just for unpacking would be helpful

Breakfast and ease of parking
No sleep possible to around 1.30 am due to very loud club music that felt like you were on the floor of a club. Music was below room in bar. Guests should be for-warned when booking that Friday and Saturdays have loud music between 8 and around 1.30 . Not acceptable to just announce that on checking in.

Close to town.
Arrived to be told they had a private party so we couldn't eat at the restaurant or use the bar.
The noise from the party was annoying.
Im not a party pooper but I wouldn't have booked if I'd known there was a private party. Bed was also hard like sleeping on the floor.

Location and a nice bar downstairs. The place had a good vibe and I found it easy to sit back and relax with a pint or two.
Check in was a bit slow until they found a person to attend to me. Not really an issue.

The decor and day time atmosphere was very nice
On Friday and Saturday night they have DJ's on until midnight. We stopped on Friday night in room 102 'Darwin' . It was directly above the exceptionaly loud speakers. The base and music was so loud and persistent it was impossible to relax, never mind sleep. My wife went down at 11pm to complain, the venue inside was empty apart from staff and the 2 DJ's. The manager had to shout to be heard over the music and just kept repeating they had music every Friday and Saturday. He confirmed he knew how loud it was in the bedrooms. This was not on any of the booking info , it just stated it was a lively pub. The next morning my wife spoke to another manager who repeated that music is every weekend, and 3 bars on that road had a contract to play music to try and bring in more of a late night clientel. She suggested we contact booking.com to request a refund. The venue should not be selling rooms on a Friday and Saturday night which are in such close proximity to the DJ's.

Everything.
The location was great for our stay, which combined a festival weekend and a sightseeing day.
The staff bent over backwards to accommodate us, for which we are gratefully appreciative.
The room was a delight, very comfortable, spotlessly clean and everything you need to make a cup of tea.
Their restaurant underneath provides a great choice of food and drinks and is also very welcoming.
I can't thank the staff enough for making our stay in Shrewsbury extra special, thank you.
Not being able to stay longer 😞

The balcony space was an unexpected bonus. Great breakfast. Very comfy bed.
It was a bit noisy from outside, not helped by the old windows which didn't shut fully. But we slept pretty well, so can't complain.
