A 'welcome' basket included wine, bread, biscuits and cakes. There was milk in the fridge as well as coffee, teabags etc in the kitchen. There was even a 'cafetiere' which quite made my day. A very comfortable and easy place to stay.

Beautiful period property very surprised to receive a welcome basket, a nice thoughtful touch - will definitely book again

Mr Taylor, July 2019
“Had everything you needed for a 7 day holiday, lot's of lovely character features,but a nice modern kitchen,we felt that because of all the character it would perhaps benefit from just a shower room as having a bath and shower in a small bathroom was a little bit of a squeeze, everything was clean and tidy .”

On arrival we had a welcome pack with wine and goodies,the only thing missing after a long journey was some milk to make a cuppa,we had a great time in Shrewsbury our second visit and would definitely stay at the apartment again,so very central to the centre of town.

We did encounter a problem with the heating - as in it wouldn't turn off - after a few days we got in contact through the Sykes app and after speaking to some lovely middlemen, the next day it was off, and no longer hotter indoors than it was out. (We stayed from the 19th to the 26th of April, there was a sudden heatwave at the time) Now to gush - it's beautiful. While on some websites they don't actively list a DVD player or a shower - there is both. They have board games and DVDs, in fact there are many freebies; you get plenty tissue, humbugs, fudge, cake, wine, shortbread, and hand soap. I don't know what was wrong with the upstairs sink, it comes away a bit and there was seemingly a constant puddle of water on the floor under it. When flushing the downstairs toilet you might accidentally leave the button pushed down, by doing so - it will be loud all night and day, fiddle with it and it stops. There are some dark stains in the bathtub, I couldn't tell you what they are for certain, perhaps rust where the porcelain has chipped, above the shower/bath the ceiling paint does flake off. It was easy to get inside the house with the keysafe being beside the the front door, some airbnb's tend to send you on a wild goose chase. In my opinion, it was lovely, it looked beautiful and was perfect for people travelling by foot. Good price at 300 and something. Thank you for having us.

Mattress was too soft for us. Would have been better if the heating had been on before we arrived & took until the morning to warm through. Would recommend as a location to explore Shrewsbury & Shropshire. Will be booking again!

We enjoy stay here. Just one minor comment, the oven is not working.

Better half glass and possibly a blind as courtyard shared. No blind at the kitchen window facing the street. Traffic noise was ok, didn't bother us but were woken by noisy people between 3 or 4 in the morning. That is not anyone's fault. It can happen. Some secondary double glazing would help though. Would have been nice to have the bedding ironed, it was very creased. The bed was comfortable. Just a personable thing, didn't like all the fake flowers and plants in excess of twenty two!!! Skimped on the towels. We did enjoy Shrewsbury, a lovely city with lots of great architecture and restaurants.

Noise from road not a problem for us as similar to where we live. Surrounded by lots of places to eat and near a small convenience store. Very near town and river trips. Pub opposite could be noisy at times. Appreciated food items in hamper.

The patio outside shares a small space with 6 bins and the recycling. The house is opposite a very busy and popular pub. On both nights we stayed we failed to sleep until after midnight. Also were not informed that the house is on the main road into Shrewsbury - therefore traffic started at about 7.00 in the morning. Would never stay here again. We were looking for a comfortable, quite house in Shewsbury. I have taken photos to show you the problems if you would like to see them.
