Pros: The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is very well kept and the remodel was nicely done. Very good location, close to dining and shopping.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Eagle Inn is an attractive, clean, and well-maintained property, and is close to Santa Barbara's happening spots.
Cons: We were in room 102, right off the lobby, and adjacent to the breakfast room. At 7am every morning, there commenced from above and all sides such a clamor as to make sleeping past that hour impossible. Perhaps an upstairs room, away from the lobby would be better.

Pros: My boyfriend and I stayed here for 3 days 2 nights as a getaway trip from work and we loved our little cottage! We booked the Santa Cruz Cantina and it was perfect for us! We loved the separate rooms and facilities within our own private little house.
Cons: The only problem we had with our room was that the drains in the bathroom sink and bath tub didn't drain properly. The plug seemed to be stuck and had to be lifted/taken out by hand in order for water to drain.
Excellent
10.0
Pros: Our family of four had a great time at the Eagle Inn. Lovely rooms & super bathrooms. Breakfast was prepared and served individually. They even had cruiser bikes available that we used to explore Santa Barbara, which, given the super location, was easy to do.
Cons: We liked the place so much, so didn't mind that there was only one queen bed per room. Rooms are too small for two beds, but fine with one bed. We also had one person who couldn't have taken the stairs, and were lucky to have downstairs room. Not sure if there was an elevator, so visitors should check for availability of downstairs rooms.
Located in Santa Barbara Beach, this hotel is within a 10-minute walk of Santa Barbara Harbor and Santa Barbara City College. Stearns Wharf and Santa Barbara County Courthouse are also within 2 miles (3 km). Santa Barbara Station is 12 minutes by foot.

Pros: So much to love about this inn... Offers an old Santa Barbara charm-early 20th century design that has been well mainted. Staff was exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable of the area (dining, wining, and local history). Continental breakfast in the morning and wine and cheese in the afternoon. Free beach cruiser bikes for use while staying and a vast selection of DVDs for viewing (also free). Complete with pool and hot tub (importantly hidden from street view. Just off the beach within easy waking distance to art, music, wine, food, Santa Barbara train station and fun (aka "the Funk Zone"). Loved our stay!
Cons: Only suggestion is to include an updated cutting board for the kitchen. Original equipment is usually great but not in this particular case.

Pros: It was 1 block from the beach
Cons: We know what to expect with a Motel 6 - cheap hotel feeling, which generally goes along with a cheap hotel price. So the price of this one is entirely the location, because it’s expensive hotel price (cheap for SB, apparently), but it’s still a cheap hotel feeling.

I am submitting this review to complain about the refund and cancellation policy. My car broke down hours away from the hotel on the day I was to check in, so I could not get to the hotel. Ramada would not cancel the reservation or give me a refund. It is true they disclosed this policy when I made the reservation, but I feel they should give a refund in a situation like mine. Also, on the phone, they gave me the run around as to who can authorize the refund. I go to Santa Barbara every few months and will not do business with Ramada again but will instead look for a hotel with a refund policy that takes unexpected events like a car break-down into account. I am angry they took my money even though I did not stay there.

Cons: Purchased this room on Hotwire to find it was $30 cheaper if I had called the hotel directly. Handicapped accommodations so that there was very little shelf space in the bathroom. Towel racks were grab bars next to the toilet. No place to sit except desk or bed. Used q-tips on floor. Second time that we stayed there but very disappointed this visit. Brunch was so crowded that you couldn't sit down and the staff couldn't keep things stocked.

Pros: Love the location - near Vons, In-N-Out ,and close to the freeway. The pool and spa are great and the grounds are very relaxing. The rooms are clean and the beds are comfy.
Cons: This was the second time i stayed here. I really dislike the A/C in the rooms. they do not work right. It shuts off when it wants and goes on periodically. This NEEDS to be updated soon. I would definitely choose a room downstairs and facing the pond and pool.
Excellent

Pros: The room decor, comfort and the surroundings were nice.
Cons: We were in room 242 which was right next to the front desk, on the first floor. During the evening (10:00 - 10:30 PM) we could hear the noise from someone walking around in the room above. I couldn't figure out why there was so much movement in a small room. The same thing happened in the early morning (6:00 AM - 6:45 AM) It reminded me of a cheap apartment in New York where you could hear the person on the floor above bustling about, getting ready for bed and for work in the morning. Wasn't happy. Front desk said the usual.. "sorry about that". Words are words. Lowering my bill makes me feel a little better. For $300+ per night, I should sleep like a baby.

Pros: This property is an older motel on a busy street that has been completely remodeled and updated. They have done so with great attention to detail and have stylishly created a space that feels like a quaint Latin American Village. The rooms feel modern with good beds and shower heads and accessories. Best of all, it is a really good value. Even though we needed to be on the opposite side of Santa Barbara, we have stayed here and enjoyed it on two occasions. You could argue that their continental breakfast is lacking because of a lack of a dining area but they have maximized a small outdoor patio for a pleasant 3 table setting if your plans allow. In this city of inflated hotel prices, we will return to Oasis Inn and Suites.
Excellent
9.1
Pros: Although my room was small, it had been updated. The bathroom was recently updated with nicer fixtures. The grounds, although small, were well-tended and a respite from the typical motel fare. This is just across the street from Gelson's market and less than a mile from the La Cumbre Mall, so it's close to shopping and not far from Downtown Santa Barbara. There is a very nice residential area behind the motel so I had no concerns walking at night. The staff was very friendly too.
Cons: My room was fairly close to State Street, so I did start to hear traffic around 7am. If you're a light sleeper or like to sleep in you might want to get a room near the back of the motel.

4.2
Pros: The room was a decent size. The pool was nice.
Cons: The bed linens were old. The bed was old and as a result, not very firm. The cleaning carts make a ton of noise/rumbling when moving around so we were awaken at 7am by the sounds of carts and people scrambling above. The facilities are run down - the restroom door was rotted at the bottom, the toilet was small and squeelee on flush. Based on my experience, the hotel is 2 star not 3.

Pros: Like the setting, the style, the outdoor lounge areas
Cons: Poor maintenance -- electrical problems with bathroom fan, bedroom fan, and lighting. Apparently these problems are known and property managers have chosen not to fix them. Desk staff knew about them and just sort of shrugged when we reported the overhead bedroom light randomly turning on during the night. Also, general daily grounds clean up was deficient -- trash not picked up by staff as they walk around; leaves and debris not swept in common areas. Great property but disappointing maintenance and attention to detail -- especially for the price!
Good
6.0
Pros: Can't beat the location right on the beach. Grounds are nicely landscaped and beautiful. Handy to have the continental breakfast provided (nothing special but ample fruit, cereal, muffins and coffee). Friendly staff.
Cons: Rooms are sparse; walls are paper thin between rooms; all hotel room doors slam when closed, shaking our room each time hotel guests come and go. $30 a day extra to park on-site plus valet tips adds up quickly. Except for the fabulous location, hotel guest room feels like a Motel 6 (and we had a partial ocean view deluxe room!)
Good
6.0
Pros: Small Santa Barbara old feel. Grounds. Location
Cons: Terrible pillows. No air conditioning. Small rooms.
Excellent
8.8
Pros: Well you just can't beat the location, you are on the beach, and not just a sliver of frontage crammed between two other properties, but about 500 feet of beach frontage including a park/greenbelt. We hadn't spent much time in Santa Barbara over the years....I don't know why after this trip. Because it won't be long before we go again. But from this location you have everything Santa Barbara has to offer within an easy bike ride or walk away. Everything was clean, staff very friendly and helpful.
Cons: The room was small, and what I mean is 2-4' around the bed and a bath, period. But while we were not there for the room, or planned to spend a lot of time there...we were going to explore the city not the room mentality. So while the room was very clean and functional, it certainly served it purpose well. Would I still book there again, yes. The fair price for the room, was justified by the location that can't be bought.
Excellent
9.4
Pros: hotel milo was had lovely grounds. everything was nice quality and very comfortable. across the street from the beach and a close walk to state st. the staff (especially Sam!) was very nice and helpful.
Cons: the walls were quite thin and I could every word from the people in the hall or those at the pool.
Okay
5.1
Pros: The bed and the view!
Cons: The staff at night was very rude. We got in really late and when I walked into the lobby I was asked “do you need something?” Not the greeting I was expecting. Then the check in attendant looked like he was in the back room sleeping. His hair was a mess and he was rude. There was no regular coffee in the room. When I spoke with the manager, he didn’t seem at all concerned with anything I had to say. Not happy with the staff at all.

Cons: The room was hot, tiny and extremely uncomfortable. You couldn't even open the window because they had martini glasses, wine bottles, snacks etc in the way. There was no AC and only a fan. If they would invest in some AC units, it would have at least been tolerable. Some of the staff were rude as well. And it was overpriced. Don't stay here, stay anywhere else.

Pros: Absolutely loved this place. The beds were so comfortable, the staff was as friendly as can be, the bike rental was perfect. We stayed in early November for the half marathon (husband and cousin ran it) and the location was perfect. We booked early so got a great price. If you wait, the rooms can be very pricey. It's all about location location location. But we loved it!!!!! Will be back soon.
Mediocre
3.4
Pros: Location
Cons: It was an apartment converted to hotel ( I guess) . Hardwood floor when walking made screeching noise ... Also from top floor as well ... When the neighbor rooms use the restroom the water they use in shower or flushing sound was felt like it's happening next to you .. Had only swimming and not enough bikes so don't expect that you will be able to get one.. The telephone was not working ..
Okay
4.2
Pros: Staff was very friendly and helpful. Can't beat the location.
Cons: Incredibly loud drilling, construction or something going upstairs woke us up at 7 AM and wouldn't stop. That was a fun surprise. Tried to call the front desk multiple times with no answer. Eventually got moved to a different room where it was quieter but the hot water more or less didn't work. Also in the new room the overhead light for some insane reason randomly turned on at 6 AM every single morning and woke us up. Pillows left us with aching necks. For the money, the quality of this hotel was impossibly shitty. Staff were very friendly and helpful but whoever owns/runs this place is coasting on the location alone and keeps the rooms in an embarrassing state. Would not stay here again or recommend it.
Excellent
8.5
Pros: Location, location, location
Cons: Roommate couldn't get into room before 4pm when she arrived mid morning. Not sure what priorities are used to determine which room is cleaned first... was it because I booked through a travel metasearch engine rather than the hotel? Also really surprised that the printer needed a cartridge to print, and staff was not able to print our boarding passes on another printer.

3.1
Pros: Good location
Cons: Extremely overpriced hotel. We paid over $400/ night for a room with king bed, so small that you couldn't walk around the bed, room was called Santa Barbara but it was smaller that any room I paid over $400/ night. The tub was very gross and smelly, the headboard to the bed was scratched and disgusting. No air conditioning. Not nice service at the front desk. One of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in.
Okay
5.7
Pros: The location was great and the staff was really nice.
Cons: The walls were paper thin and you could hear everything. We could not sleep at all. We heard people in the pool and the person going in and out of the room next to us and running the shower and walking down the hallway. The sink had hair all over it when we checked into the room. The bathroom was really dirty. One of the lamps did not work in the room.

Good
7.1
Pros: Location close to the ocean and nice comfort areas.
Cons: The bathroom was old, probably needs new plumbing fixtures. Also the tiles were very slippery. Refrigerator wasn't working, and ice machines are located in remote areas of the hotel grounds. The room was hot and humid, might need central air to help with this problem.
Excellent
9.3
Pros: The property is kept up and the rooms are clean and nice. I liked the beachy cottage feel that has comfy feeling. The continental breakfast was nice with a good variety and there is a 2 hour complimentary bike rental.
Cons: They do charge for $18 for the daily parking lot fee and why is there a room service charge of $12. With the price you pay for just the room, shouldn't that charge already be included in that?? We paid $36700 for one night and when I checked my credit card online, I saw that they charged $418.00

8.8
Pros: Location is prefect. Staff is great!!! Would and will go back again!! Hopefully next time in a balcony ocean view room.
Cons: We enjoyed everything only couple things we were hesitant about. Rooms were hot no Ac which we understood since it was abnormally hot this summer. Last time we stayed here breakfast had meat and cheese to go with breakfast this year just hard boiled eggs bread,fruit,cereal,oatmeal. Missed the meat and cheese.

We were 2 friends traveling together. The hotel is very nice. We had a large room with 2 double beds - which is what we requested. The beds are comfortable but they are very high - you almost need a stool to get onto the bed. We were disappointed that there was no coffee maker in the room! The hotel is downtown close to shopping.

Pros: In heart of downtown SB, walking distance to Granada Theatre and dining/retail, beautiful Spanish Mission styling. Excellent service at valet parking, front desk, restaurant, and housekeeping. Wonderful canopy bed but definitely used the step stool. Only thing missing was a ottoman to put up your feet.

Pros: Great location with incredible staff who made sure my stay was top notch. They made my stay worth it.
Cons: Room was becoming worn and torn, with some awkward elements like a flat screen in the bathroom that was too big for the space. I understand they're going for chic, but ultimately fell flat and was silly. Less is more.

The valet team was incredible, they were so fast and there were multiple times that I left something in my car and they would grab it for me to have it delivered to my hotel room.

Cons: Even though we told the front desk when we arrived that we belonged to their Rewards program and were staying for three nights, they put us at the far end of the building where the workers had rooms. They woke up early, made lots of noise loading their trucks and same was true when they returned in the evening. The grounds looked overgrown and dirty. Bed was old and uncomfortable.

The rooms were very clean, the building its self is older, however, they seem to have kept up on it very well.
Cons: When checking in, I was told the Internet info was provided on the room card and it was not, but that was a quick fix by just calling the office. They didn't have pool towels ready, but a staff brought them to us when they were dry. Everything I read said the pools were heated, but only one out of two pools were heated. The parking was alittle tight, I have a big truck, but it worked out. Nothing was bad enough to to not come back again. We will definitely stay here again. (:
