Very nice hotel. The rooms are clean and within walking distance to eateries and the Monterey Bay aquarium. Downside is they don't offer breakfast.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Wave Street Inn. Carol, at the front desk, was an absolute gem. She was so friendly, helpful, and kind that we would go back just to visit her!! The hotel itself was very nice. The rooms are clean and well-maintained, the beds are comfortable, TVs had several options to choose from (not that you’re there to watch TV when there’s beautiful Monterey right outside), shower had good water pressure, and there were ample outlet options to plug in devices. I had some work to do (unfortunately) and there was plenty of desk space and good, free wifi available. We did not bring a car, but the parking garage looked easily accessible from the street. The hotel was a short 5-10 minute walk from the beach, the aquarium, and several eating and shopping options. The old fisherman’s wharf is about a 20 minute walk on a nice, paved pedestrian trail. Make sure to take a whale watching cruise while in town! We also took a bus to the Monarch Sanctuary (worth a visit, too, if you’re there at the right time of year). The buses nearby run about every hour and the stop is right around the corner from the Wave Street Inn, next to the CVS.
