Excellent stay
Check in was smooth and they let us in about 30 mins early. All of the staff is very friendly and pleasant! They gave us a goodie bag with some snacks in it. Internet speed is fast, they have Xfinity for TV. The garage has in and out privileges until 4pm the next day. Very handy since the hotel is located right next to cannery row and if you want to go somewhere else you can take your car and go without worrying about your parking spot being gone or having to pay again for parking. The bonfire they have from 5pm-10pm is pleasant. When we went there was no one else out there but it is a nice area to hang out outside with a fire.

If you're looking for a convenient hotel with no frills, the Wave Street Inn is great. Rooms are clean and location is great for Cannery Row and Aquarium. No onsite dining or snacks, but everything you need is close by. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Onsite parking available at a charge of $17/nt.
