I was here last ...

I was here last year (2017) and I loved it. I came for a day trip to visit the nearby aquarium and fell in love with this adorable town so at the last minute I decided to stay the night. I found this hotel within walking distance to the aquarium and right in the middle of the little town. The price was great so I was surprised at how nice and modern everything was. Also, right across the street is a really cute restaurant we went to for breakfast with outdoor seating.

We highly recommend this hotel if you want to be close to the beach, we got an ocean view room, and parking for only $20. The beds were super comfortable and the shower was amazing. The staff was so nice. They even have 2 fire pits downstairs if you wanna hang out and have a couple of drinks.

The Wave Street Inn ...

The Wave Street Inn is absolutely wonderful. It's everything you need for a weekend in Monterey. Much more reaonsably priced than options on the main drag, but still perfectly located and with an excellent view. We wanted convenient location but knew we'd be spending the majority of our time out and about, so we didnt want to splurge on lodgings, but still wanted something decent, and the Wave Street Inn surpassed decent while still providing significant affordability as compared to nearby alternatives. It took us less than 10 minutes to walk to the aquarium, which was most important to us, and the rest of downtown was equally accessible. The room was small, but provided everything we needed. Overall cleanliness of the hotel was noticeable both outside and in. Highly recommend this establishment for the most conveniently located, reasonably priced establishment right in the heart of Monterey.

Very happy with our ...

Very happy with our stay. Staff was polite and available at a times. This hotel played a major key in executing my girlfriend's birthday, boy did it deliver! We were lucky enough to arrive early and be able to check in before normal times. We experienced a great view of the Pacific and newly renovated rooms provided some of the best comfort I've ever had. Although this is a bit out of my regular range, given the special occasion, I really loved this hotel. I'll gladly become a regular for the more memorable trips down to Monterey.
