We really liked the Wave Street Inn. Location was GREAT. Staff was friendly and nice. The only downside was the beds as the matress seemed old and worn down, if laying on the bed always felt like I was going to roll off.

It’s location can’t be beat. Walking distance to Cannery Row, the Aquarium and lots of restaurants. No need to drive and park again and again.

Place was perfect for our weekend getaway. Clean, convenient located by ocean, aquarium and wharf and so much more. There are fire pits at the property and tons of restaurants. Staff was helpful. No complaints here. I would stay again!

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The rooms are nice, but it’s worthless to stay in a nice room where you can’t sleep due to the extremely noisy environment of whoever is staying above you and next to you. The walls and floors are super thin and just there to keep you from seeing your neighbors but certainly useless when it comes to hearing every conversation and angle of movement from your neighbors, I didn’t get any sleep at all. The hotel is Very Overpriced, there’s an extra charge for parking ($17), and if you have issues there is limited support from staff if that even counts. Don’t stay here, choose someplace else. The high ratings this hotel has are a scam.

The Wave Street Inn is ideally located a few walkable blocks from Cannery Row, the Monterey Bay waterfront, the aquarium, and more. Its rooms are well maintained and clean, with comfortable beds and linens. Covered parking is available at ground level for an additional charge.

The property is one street from Cannery Row. The staff was very friendly. Overall the property was clean and presented accurately. We could not hear our neighbors on either side of us, but you could hear people walking on the floor above.
