Weekend get away
It was a great stay, within walking distance to all activities at Cannery Row and the Aquarium. There is a $17, daily parking fee, but that is better than having to find parking everyday. Once parked, walked everywhere. Front desk was friendly and helpful during check-in

That walkway needs to be replaced! It's dangerous. I'm talking about the catwalk over the second-floor courtyard. It sinks in many places. I have an unsteady walk and every one of the many divots from rotten or broken boards fouled up my gait even worse. I have two artificial knees, not uncommon anymore, and I was always very nervous about falling because of the numerous soft spots hidden under that gray carpet. If I'd fallen on my knees my much-anticipated vacation would have ended. The rest of the place and the help were great. Our room was 315.
