    We asked, when we reserved, for ground floor as I have difficulty with stairs, but we were placed on the second floor. Breakfast meats and hash browns weren't very warm.

    They advertise a continental breakfast, but it was really a full breakfast with scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage as well as juice, coffee, toast, pastries and fresh fruit. The building is very old and full if interesting nooks and architectural features.

    After the first day or two, there was a stale smell in my bathroom. But the staff was helpful with this problem and the smell went away after a day or so.

    The location was excellent, close to the water and to downtown. The breakfast was good. The staff were very helpful and attentive to any questions or concerns.

    We enjoyed our stay here. The Inn is in a quiet residential area near a park, yet a short walk to downtown Charlottetown shops and the theatre. Hosts were very helpful with luggage (stairs to 3rd floor room) and solving a technology issue. There were a variety of hot and cold selections for breakfast. Our room had two comfortable chairs in front of the tv. There was a kitchen on our floor to share with one other room.

    Not sure if this can be added to booking but a note as to which floor your room would be located as some people would not be able to do that many stairs to the third floor, great exercise however, if that can be shown when booking that may be helpful for some.

    Lovely old historic home remodeled turning it into an extraordinary Bed and Breakfast, lovely rooms and a most excellent breakfast buffet, something for everyone for sure with lovely service as well, very helpful and courteous. Great location where one could walk for tours and restaurants, theatre etc.

    Memorable and with that outdoor ramp, it's interesting that your hotel is run like "a tight ship"!

    Any kitchen staff mingling in with guests to help themselves to breakfast between 7:30 & 10 pm is not a good idea. My room lacked ambiance for the price. Net curtains need to be sparkling white and remove those poor pictures and replace with PEI souvenir items screwed to wall. Bedside lamps need to be brighter. When a guest first sees the room.. several lamps should be on to make it most welcoming.

    Breakfast and area exceptional and why I would stay there again. Hotel well away from traffic noise. Staff very keen to provide a service. Guest kitchenette with water /pop and microwave much appreciated. I also like the long outdoor ramp almost like coming aboard a ship. Adds nicely to the holiday atmosphere.

    Very little. As it was older it creaked a little when people moved around in other rooms but it was not a big deal at all.

    Although this was an older property it was quaint.. The rooms were a good size, the staff were superb,very accommodating and pleasant. There was a good breakfast served until 10am, which we appreciated.

    Our stay at the Sonata Inn was just amazing. Clean, comfortable, welcoming. The Inn is beautiful and the owners are lovely people. It is probably the best location in Charlottetown. We stayed three nights and never moved our car. We walked to restaurants and all the sights.
