No hot water within the shower. Reported after the first morning, said they would look into it (not sure this happened). Still cold the next morning. We had two rooms booked and it was an issue in both rooms so not just an isolated room. Wasted a significant amount of water trying to get the showers to heat up to any degree. Also a lack of all/ fresh breakfast items (no baked beans at all on the first day, scraps of egg on the second day).

I enjoyed a one night birthday stay at the Holiday Inn Express Shrewsbury on 5/6 Dec. Check in was friendly and helpful. My room was very spacious, and had everything you'd expect. Vacuuming could have been a bit more thorough, especially in the corners. Ate in the hotel: beer selection fairly limited, and hotel prices (£6 for a pint of Stella). Menu also fairly limited, but had a nice curry for around £15. Impersonal service from the young waiter/barman. Bed was comfy, and had a good night's sleep. A little noise early on, presumably contractors leaving for work. Good sized bathroom, and great shower. Busy breakfast area, but managed to find a table. Breakfast was a selection of cereals, yoghurt, fruit compote, pastries and toast with tea/coffee/juice. Hot buffet selection was bacon, sausages, egg (scrambled only), hash browns, tomatoes and baked beans. Nice late check-out of 11am. Overall, a pleasant stay, and good value for less than £50.

TWO PAYMENTS HAVE COME OFF MY CREDIT CARD AND YOU WILL NOT REFUND ONE OF THE PAYMENTS.....WHEN BOOKING YOU HAVE TO AUTHORISE THE PAYMENT WHICH ONE WAS AUTHORISED NOT THE SECOND. I AM TAKING THE MATTER FURTHER UNLESS THIS IS RECTIFIED AS THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME A HOLIDAY INN HAS TAKEN OTHER PAYMENTS WHEN THEY SHOULD'NT.
