Great position in Central Shrewsbury, parking was across the road, Staff was amazing and the breakfast in the morning was lovely but the carpet had quite a few stains and there were lots of light bulbs that were not working, but apart from that i would stay there again.

The property is right on the main road , the room was on ground floor level and people were walking past the window shouting , the road noise was excessive , The room was clean and tidy very basic . It reflected the price I paid as budget accommodation .
I just found it to be convenient as short notice for me to close to the centre of Shrewsbury .
I would not need to use it again , and would not

A short walk from the train station which we liked. The room was on the ground floor which was nice as we didn’t have to carry our luggage up several flights of stairs.

My brother & I decided to stay a 2nd night in Shrewsbury at short notice having stayed in the Premier Inn 200 yards down the road on the Thursday night. Premier Inn wanted £133 for the Friday night stay. Found The Alb on hotels.com which was half the price with added bonus with breakfast included. It was a budget twin room which perfectly suited our needs. Room was lovely & really warm ( unlike Premier Inn where i slept fully clothed under the duvet as the room was so cold ). Loads of tea & coffee sachets for our use. Room also had a mini fridge which was a nice surprise. Room was nice & clean. I had a full english breakfast which was superb. I would definitely check this place 1st next time we visit Shrewsbury. I would recommend it based on my experience.

Really enjoyed stay here , our room was small but beds were comfortable. A lovely home cooked breakfast with a good choice .
Pizza was lovely too in the evening. Friendly helpful staff .
I particularly liked the fact that there was refillable soap and body wash in the bathroom instead of the wasteful miniature plastic bottles used in so many hotels .
Handy location for everything in Shrewsbury
Would happily stay here again.

Pleasant stay although was a bit noisy at times but that comes from being in such a great location. Breakfast was fantastic and Paul was very attentive. Would stay again.

Booked a room advertised with a king sized bed only to find when we arrived that they only have double beds. Daily housekeeping was also stated but our room was untouched for the duration of our stay. Breakfast was included in the package but the service was extremely slow and the food when it arrived although tasty wasn’t as advertised and most of the items were barely luke warm or cold. The rooms are nice and very clean but overall we were disappointed with our stay.

Limited characters on here so here are the basics:
FIRST ROOM:
· Dirty marks/splashes across the back of the main door and walls – I imagine from worker’s boots, or possibly a hot drink had been split and splashed
· Light brown fingerprints and marks across all the walls and along the edge of the desk
· Old water in the kettle and dirty brown marks all over the kettle
· A broken radiator cover
· One working lamp (out of the two attached to the bed head)
· Dust, grime and marks across the sink and back of the toilet
· Skid marks in and down the toilet, also small hairs on the toilet
· Only half a loo roll, no new or spares
· Dust and hair on the bedside tables
SECOND ROOM:
· Marks on the walls, again most likely workers/builders
· Streaks and Polyfilla marks down the walls in the bathroom
· Hair on the wall in the shower and a hair bobble hooked on top of the shower screen
· Mud or mascara, (brown mark) on yellow scatter cushion
· Dust and bits on mini shelf under toilet roll holder
· Motion sensor light in hall by the only mirror in the room constantly goes off as you’re stood getting ready
· Shower constantly hot and cold when top dial pointing to left to the 2 red lines
· Blind pulley too high to reach (& I’m tall!)
· Window doesn't stay open on it's own
· Marks and scrapes across all walls and doors
