Stayed at the Sonata guest house for 4 days whilst on a business trip to Kendal.
I stayed in a double bedroom, on the first floor. Staircase leading up to it was very steep, which made it difficult to negotiate with a suitcase.
The bedroom itself seemed clean enough, although it was very tired and dated. The wallpaper was stained, and floorboards very creaky.
The shower was extremely noisy, and the plumbing seems to be a problem, as I was woken up in the night by the guest in the room next door to me taking a shower.
There is also an ambulance rank across the road, so sirens can be heard throughout the night.
From what I can gather, pets are welcome at the guest house, and to this end, there does seem to be a "doggy" smell, which was extremely off-putting, especially when eating breakfast.
The only saving grace was the location, which suited me perfectly as I was in Kendal on business.
Overall, not great.
