"The hotel is need a of a little updating, but as it's 14th Century it's very old! Charles Dickens stayed here along with many famous Tudor times people! The family room (one double bed and one single) we had was on the 3rd floor and there was no lift (even though there are signs for lift everywhere), it was quite a climb, if you are elderly or have difficulty with stairs I would recommend asking for first floor room. It was pretty hot also as it was a heatwave as we stayed. We had 2 fans in the room on consistently which did help, but it was 31 degrees outside. The room was a good size for a family and dog. The parking is good as only £5 for the time we stayed from checking in at 3pm and out at 11am next day. We wanted to go shopping so we asked if we could leave the car for the day and the staff said that's fine, so basically 2 days of parking for £5 which is brilliant for the centre of Shrewsbury. We also had a dog which was £15 which was not mentioned on the platform we booked. Overall for the price it's not bad, if you are out and about and just sleeping there, it's clean, basic (old small TV, no USB ports), shower a little dated that worked fine and clean bath big enough for an adult. Lots of history in there if you are a history buff and the staircase is from the 14th century. I would stay again for the price and the parking and the family enjoyed it, just would ask for a first floor room!"
