    It was quirky but well equipped. I partitioned all the little details like the way the towels were displayed. Also, it’s the only hotel of the 6 we stayed at that offered a complimentary breakfast. 😊

    There were some guests having a loud conversation in the hallway outside our room when we were trying to sleep for an hour or so. It would have been great if someone could have moved them along.

    Breakfast was tasty. They decorated our bed for our honeymoon which was a lovely touch. The property was beautiful and well located. Staff were helpful and friendly

    Anacapa Casita we stayed in was clean but the carpet was old and shows wear and tear in case that's an issue for you. This particular Casita is located next to a driveway/garage, but we never had an issue with noise or smell.

    The hotel staff were so helpful. Location was perfect. Breakfast was amazing. We also loved the jetted tub in our room and borrowing the courtesy bikes. Thank you for a wonderful stay! We would definitely stay again.

    The property is so charming and quaint with attentive, accommodating staff. My room was gorgeous; perfect for a short getaway. Breakfast was lovely, and I adored the neighborhood - just two blocks from the beach and Stearn's Wharf. I look forward to staying at the Eagle Inn again!

    Lovely beach stay in Santa Barbara

    The safe was not working in our room. The seating on the patio for breakfast was uncomfortable, as the love seat was a bit worn and sloped, so we were sliding toward each other. Great for cuddling, but not so great when eating breakfast.

    It is a well-run, family-owned operation with all the amenities that you would need. They have a 24/7 self-serve coffee/cappucino machine and water cooler in the lobby, as well as providing salt water toffee and cookies. Home-made breakfast is included in the morning, and there is a vegetarian selection as well as granola, cereal and fresh fruit. The bed was very comfortable, and the rooms were well-decorated with antiques. The air conditioning and ceiling fan worked well. There is a small fridge and microwave in our room. There is free parking. The location was perfect. We were a short walk to the beach and the Funk Zone, with many restaurants and shops.

    That we had to leave...... Nothing that we didn't like

    This little pleasant hotel is great. We have been there few years ago and it is still very good as we remembered. Very good location on a quite street and literally 2 minutes walk to the beach (and 7 to the pier). We got a great room with a balcony which was great. Room is clean and vey nice - as the rest of the building. Breakfast is exceptional - served per order with attentive stuff and is a great way to start the day on the dining room balcony. Would definitely recommend and would plan to come again. They have good coffee machine (and tea offerings) available in the lobby area plus a coffee machine in each room which is a plus for me. Parking is available at the hotel (at no cost!!) so no need to worry about that.

    The property is truly a gem nestled in a quiet neighborhood.Just a few steps away from the beach. The rooms were spacious and had plenty of room for 2 adults. It had a cute little Balcony that faced the quiet street In which we were able to enjoy our morning coffee. The staff was super attentive and checked in on us via text if there was anything we needed. I especially liked that there were fresh baked cookies.Coffee tea and other refreshments available throughout the day for guests. Another added bonus was the breakfast which was made to order for each guest.

    Requested a balcony and was assigned to one, but it was on the first floor and pretty dark. I don’t think our room should be the same price as other king balcony rooms. Next time, I will ask.

    Excellent location. Nice sized rooms. Sustainable practices.

    There could be better choices of breakfast particularly about the eggs and the teas provided.

    Breakfast is average but adequate. The room is spacious and comfortable bed. The host upgrade our stay in a suite with a kitchen. This is wonderful because I could enjoy a quiet tea and read before going to bed.
