Centrally located on the famous Cannery Rows… valet parking fee is around $36/ day. Street parking is available and free after 8pm till 9am. Complimentary cheese, wine and crackers are served at 4:30 till 6. Complimentary breakfast is only available through room service. Spacious room with queen bed & sitting areas with table,chairs and a daybed by the window. Thermostat doesn’t work in our room can’t adjust temperature as desired. We use the ceiling fan instead.
