Wouldn't recommend for solo travellers.
The receptionist was great--very friendly. But I was really annoyed about the room. It was larger than most rooms for solo travellers, but everything else about it was a problem. It struck me as one of those situations where solo travellers are expected to put up with much lower standards. The room was right above a noisy outdoor bar (and there were many other rooms available). There was a smell of stale cigarette smoke. The bed was incredibly uncomfortable. I had a back ache for two days afterward. The sheets and pillowcases were new, but the duvet/comforter filling smelled and seemed gross and old. There was quite a lot of mold around the windows and in the bathroom. It just seemed forgotten-about in terms of cleanliness. I do hope this hotel succeeds. It looks like there are renovations going on. But my room seemed to have been renovated very recently and then not cleaned/maintained. The managers need to get organized.

Lovely Oldy Worldy hotel
We stayed overnight as we were out in Shrewsbury celebrating a birthday. Hotel is very pleasant, but traditional. It's an old building but nicely maintained. Breakfast is excellent and service brilliant.
