"The Hotel Santa Barbara is situated perfectly. It’s a block from the Surfliner stop, has dozens of good restaurants within walking distance and Stearns Pier less than a mile away. The gym is limited, but decent for a hotel this size. Valet parking for $30 a night is a good deal. No pool, though. ..."
