I stayed in room number three. Whatever you do don’t get room number three on a sunny day. There was a party literally right outside my window. I mean the table, but it up to my window at the same level. It was a hot day. there was no air-conditioning and so I had to have my window open. It was a Saturday night so maybe on a different night it wouldn’t be so bad but I’ve flown all the way from Seattle and then taking six hours on the train to get there. I was really tired and I usually can sleep through almost anything with earplugs in, but it was the base booming and people smoking so I either had to shut the window and it would be way too hot or deal with the smoky air. The Wi-Fi didn’t work in room three it doesn’t reach it kept saying get closer to the router. The room was tiny so the Wi-Fi doesn’t work in room three I tried as I might. I could not get the hot water it is either too hot or too cold. I couldn’t get it regulated in the on-demand system. I think that they should not rent room three when there are parties outside the window. It was pretty miserable. I went up the street to Saint Nicholas for the next night stay and it was delightful.

I bought this overnight stay on the understanding there would be parking available as stated on your website , however i was then told there was no parking on site and i had to park half a mile away and walk in torrential rain .
The room itself was up three flights of narrow badly lit stairs , the room was in a filthy disgusting state it clearly hadnt been cleaned properly for months, tatty furniture, dust and dirt everywhere. The bathroom was horrendous black mould around shower and floor the ceiling was covered in mildew, the toilet brush was covered in toilet paper and faeces , toilet seat was loose and ill fitting. The facilities are so bad that had there not been music playing so loud in the bar that you couldnt hear what bar staff were saying we would have told staff how bad things were and left immediately....we stayed the night but only because we couldnt find other accomodation at such short notice. Luckily my wife had packed a spare bed sheet which we used to cover the tatty bed , we left first thing in morning as we couldnt bring ourselves to use the filthy bathroom ....to say we are dissapointed is an understatement , if payment hadnt already been taken i would have refused to pay....we have photos to support everything i have stated , i believe this establishment should be inspected by yourselves as its your site who are selling this horrible accomodation , im hoping this review gets read by someone who can act upon it as room 8 at the vaults is terrible.

When we arrived to our room, we found our spare towels left on the floor so immediately the stay was off to a disappointing start. While we understood that there was a bar downstairs, there was no indication that the hotel would be hosting some kind of rave until midnight as we had to put up with extremely loud music, thumping bass and screaming punters all through to midnight. On top of this, the pillows were uncomfortable so safe to say we did not sleep well. We had a smart TV in the room which did not connect to the hotel WiFi so we were stuck with Freeview. The bathroom heater did not work and the bathroom smelled of damp. My grandmother who stayed with me could not use the shower because the room was too cold for her. There were sockets not placed on the wall properly. We called the 3 different numbers staff had left for us to contact if we needed help and not once did we receive an answer to our calls so our issues with the bathroom were left unresolved.

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.

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.

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

Not bad!

It's a very old pub with a few rooms, I was on the top floor overlooking the castle which meant it was very quiet but up three flights of stairs!
They don't do any food but obviously Shrewsbury has a multitude of eateries. Only a short walk to the center of town and right next to the station. Staff were nice too.
Would I stay again? probably not but then there are literally hundreds of places I haven't tried yet!

Ok budget stay

Useful email before arrival with details of where to park car. Wi-Fi code etc. Laid back check in, staff friendly. Room was at the very top. Lots of old narrow stairs. Room was big enough but en-suite quite small with awkward high step up to get into shower. Also a very musty smell in en suite.
Beds were very comfy noise from pub below negligible.

The staff is nice and the location is great, but my room was in an unacceptable condition, smelling very strongly of cigarette smoke and with no adequate way to air it out. The sheets and towels were clean, but there were stains on the walls and furniture, and the furnishings were cheap and sometimes broken. Club music is played loudly on weekends until the early morning hours -- too loud for earplugs to block out. I would not recommend staying here.

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

Good location, steep stairs, very small bathrooms

Great location for the station, just three minutes walk. Good pizza place just across the road (although allow at least 20 minutes for them to prepare it!). Close to town centre (up a hill). Accommodation OK, although all rooms up a steep narrow staircase hidden inside the pub. Very small shower rooms. Noisy until around 10.30 p.m. at weekends, but beds OK.

Value for money. Basic accommodation but clean. Steep narrow stairs as you would expect of a property of this age

Nice pub, wood floors and wood every where... stairs up to the rooms were awesome - if this is going to be the standard I will be back.
Staff were friendly and helpful.
Room was small, but clean and tidy with everything we needed.

Downside was the toilet - seat not attached and bowl moving around as not attached properly to the wall - the bathroom defintiely had an \"unfinished\" feel to it.

Room very spacious, plenty of tea & coffee facilities, plenty of towels but bathroom was very small. Lovely beer garden on the roof terrace and even though a pub, couldn’t hear the noise in our room.

I liked the self contained shampoo, conditioner, shower gel and hand soap dispensers in the en suite, very handy as i forgot my own! Also, we loved that there was access to a iron and the shower was not to dissapoint! A lovely and warm welcome from the start and very patient with us, even if we were running late! Only thing i would have liked was possibly the room number engraved or written on the room key somehow. Otherwise a very pleasurable stay and we would definitely visit and stay again!

For the price - good.

Fine for the price. Clean, well-placed (near station). But not (by a long way) luxurious.

The room was spotless.Bed very comfy. Lots of tea, coffee etc. Nice toiletries in containers in the bathroom which had great shower. Lots of fresh towels. Near to the station and town centre. Great value for money. Good range of beers etcetra. They tell you they dont do breakfasts which is fine as there are plenty of local facilities for this
