My husband and I ...

My husband and I stayed here recently for our anniversary and it was amazing!!! The location cannot be beat, you can walk to Cannery Row in literally 5 minutes! The price was also a huge selling point for the LOCATION. I cannot say that enough, the location was perfect!! The hotel rooms are clean and spacious, the fire pits to lounge around were a nice surprise, and it’s very quiet. Also, Carol is an absolute gem, we loved chatting with her! We absolutely adore this beautiful hotel and cannot wait to stay at Wave Street Inn again!! Already planning our next Monterey trip. ❤️

The room was clean and comfortable with great air conditioning. It was close to many excellent eateries. Parking was great, and the location was within walking distance of the Aquarium and Cannery Row shops. Staff was terrific. I left my iPad in the room when we stayed there earlier in the week and they contacted me the same day. It was kept in their safe until we returned.

The hotel's location is superb--close to the Aquarium and Cannery Row shops and restaurants. The room was comfortable and the bathroom spacious. The coffee in the room was the best ever. Outside are two fire pits that you can enjoy with the snacks they give you upon arrival. Parking is extra but very convenient!

We had a great stay at the Wave Street Inn. It is only one block from the Cannery Row area and quick walking distance to the Aquarium so it was perfectly located. Lots of restaurants nearby. The room was updated and comfortable. The check-in person was probably the nicest check-in person I've run into and I stay at a lot of hotels. It was clear that the management was very tuned into making our stay comfortable. They even gave us a nice goody bag full of snacks. Thank you to Wave Street Inn for letting us continue to park while we visited the aquarium after check-out. We had a nice comfortable stay.

Let's just say, when I go back to Monterey, the Wave st. Inn will be my first choice for lodging.

There was no breakfast, but the location was perfect. Within minutes you walk to Cannery Row. Tons of restaurants and cool shops. We also walked about four minutes from the hotel to a restaurant called, "Hulla", which I highly recommend.
