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.
5.0 Okay
Pros: The location of the hotel is good, walking distance to the beach. The breakfast is good and the staffs are friendly. The neighborhood is very nice to walk around.
Cons: Room was small, stains on the bed spread. Noise is a big problem. I could hear the cars, next door coughing and talking, and train horns in the evening. My room was above the kitchen so in the morning I could smell the smoke from fried eggs, etc.

Pros: The staff, the location, the charming property. The bed was extremely comfortable, the whole place is cozy and designed for maximum comfort. There are tons of little touches throughout that show someone is thinking about the guest. The staff was so helpful - we have a 11mth old baby and they were able to check us in early so he could nap. Will never stay anywhere else in SB.

Pros: The Spanish Garden Inn is, at $400/night, a couple hundred more than I have even paid for a room. So I expected a lot. This was a special occasion, my boyfriend's birthday. He loves a nice hotel and the Inn is beautiful with great atmosphere. We stayed in room #3. There were many positives: a french press and creamers in the fridge in the room; nice balcony which we sat on several times, overlooking the patio and fountain; the room was very quiet; there was a big bathtub, nice shower and super comfortable king bed; magnifying mirror for putting on makeup; plenty of hangars including padded; robes, slippers & safe; window and door that open to the balcony; good A/C; a fireplace in the room-not sure if it worked as we didn't try it; friendly, helpful staff, a happy hour with wine and good cheeses and meats; coffee bar open all day; two suitcase racks; nice,big bath towels. It is three blocks from State Street, an easy walk. Something to be aware of is that there is a window between the shower and the tub/sink area. The shower is in a room with the toilet that can be locked. There is no door between the tub/sink area and the rest of the suite so if you want total privacy while taking a shower, you'll need to mention it to your "roommate." Most couples probably won't care.

Cons: The drapes are extremely difficult to slide on the ceiling high metal rod; our drapes came out of the clips while doing so. They were too high to fix them. The staff took care of it promptly. This annoyance alone would have not prompt a lower rating, especially as the drapes close well to darken the room. However, the gold drapes are very dirty all along the top. There was also some grout that needed cleaning in the bathroom (otherwise the room and bath were very clean). At $400/night am I wrong to expect perfect cleanliness? I had heard they have a great breakfast but we were disappointed. It was basically a cold buffet of dry cereal, plain yogurt, fruit, pastries that were unremarkable, bread and bagels. Warm food was tiny quiches and instant hot oatmeal. By other reviews, this is great for most people. For $400/night I expected more hot food like scrambled eggs, or make-it-yourself waffles. The $239/night I saw for some nights may be a fairer price.

Pros: Staff was extremely polite and helpful. View from the balcony is breathtaking. Room was clean.
Cons: There was only 1 soap in the bathroom for 2 sinks. Stepping out from either the shower or the bathtub there was only one towel for the floor. The extra room in the Penthouse with the beautiful view to the ocean could have been differently furnished to better utilize the space for people to enjoy the view. The breakfast definitely needs improvement and wider selection.
6.8 Good
Pros: Location
Cons: Breakfast Buffet was a complete joke, as store bought bagels were still slightly frozen and selection was severely lacking. Plus since we had three rooms, I asked if we could get a late checkout in just one room, so we could stroll along waterfront. Immediate response was no without checking with any of her supervisors to see if they could accommodate my request. SO SAD when a hotel is blessed with a great location and quality construction and yet is staffed by indifferent millennials who have no clue on what makes a hotel great.

Pros: The location was very convenient.
Cons: Our end room was next door to a restaurant. The smoke from the chimney innundated our room and balcony while coming and going. Couldn't leave the windows open. I became VERY ill with a respiratory problem which put me at the doctor's. It was also very noisy with clanking dishes etc. I spoke with the front desk person, who said nothing about it and offered no condolence or solution. It was our 35th wedding anniversary.

Cons: The valet fee is a little steep and it's unclear exactly what the resort credit gets you each day. But this was very minor and likely related to us not asking about the resort fee.

Pros: Beautiful space, great location
Cons: Could not sleep because the internal ceiling fan broke in the bathroom and kept making a whirring/clicking sound all night. When I told the front desk in the morning, they said all they could do was refund the facility fee. Not acceptable.

Pros: The beautiful four-poster bed and other room decor were lovely. The staff was always there to help — never had to wait, and they were very kind and friendly toward my dog always.
Cons: The website misrepresented what was available in a way — for example for morning coffee there was a picture of a beautiful latte, but it turned out to be just big canisters for self serve. The bathtub on the site was free standing and deep, but at the hotel was just an ordinary tub. The pool was also only three feet deep, so better for children than adults.

Pros: Robin at reception was charming, helpful and engaging. Sean from Louie’s restaurant was also friendly and attentive. We stayed three nights with two children (7yo, 9yo) and walked everywhere as the location was very central to Kids World playground, Moxi, movie theatre, beaches etc. The afternoon and evening refreshments were a nice inclusion. We had a different room to the one we booked due to a hot water issue, and the new room was very convenient to the lobby and lounge area. A little noisier than expected due to traffic and the restaurant but we slept through it fine.

Pros: Friendly and clean and cool
Cons: All good

Pros: Hip and fun; great location
Cons: The water tastes weird; the perfect view of the freeway
9.7 Excellent
Pros: We loved the boutique feel of the wayfarer. The quirky designed reception area, mermaid wallpaper in the bedrooms and state of the art kitchen facilities. Location is perfect to explore Santa Barbara. Staff were super helpful. Great value for money.
Cons:

Pros: Incredible staff and customers!! Room big and very clean.

10.0 Excellent
Pros: Everything was great, really enjoyed my stay.
Cons:
10.0 Excellent
Pros: But it had amazingly comfortable beds. The decor was fancy, the bathrooms were very modern - I see why it was a little more pricey than average hostels. Had a tv in the room, and with decent channels! Location is prime. Had nightly activities but the night I was there, it was cancelled because not enough people wanted to do it.
Cons: The price
8.0 Excellent
Pros: The vibe was set
Cons:
9.4 Excellent
Pros: *The decor was awesome
*The room was immaculate
*The staff was super friendly
*Free coffee / water / kitchen access
*Free breakfast
*Very funky space with a big library, board games, and fun activities planned (there was a bar crawl going on the night I got there)
*THE POOL!
*Super close to the train - 1.5 blocks walking
*Great use of space in the room, including cabinets built into the headboard
Cons: The room, though immaculate, was TINY. I live in NYC, and this was small even by NYC standards. The bathroom floor doubled as the shower floor, which actually worked out rather nicely, but it was an odd adjustment. The space was great for one person, but I'm glad there weren't two of us staying there.
7.5 Good
Pros: Kitchen is big and really well equipped and the kitchen/lounge area is very comfortable to hang out in. Beds are remade each day ( not entirely necessary but feels like a touch of luxury) and bathrooms are cleaned immaculately. Breakfast was pretty good. Location is great especially for Amtrak. Santa Barbara itself is beautiful.
Cons: Beds are super soft foam that you sink in to like sleeping on a marshmallow. If you need a firm mattress, you will struggle like I did. The floor would have been more comfortable for me. For people who like soft mattresses, they probably feel quite luxurious. There are extra charges other than what is initially advertised including an apparently mandatory resort fee regardless of whether you use any of the resort features (swimming pool and I'm not sure what else). My dorm bed came to 70 dollars a night in total. Some of the staff (the boys) are really friendly and helpful. Others just look permanently miserable and didn't even smile at me or say hi even when I spoke first. The staff can give you some advice about what they know in Santa Barbara (especially if you get a friendly staff member) but you'll probably get more detail from the visitors center round the corner or online. For example, when I asked for a supermarket I was told of the nearest Santa Cruz but not told that there is also an amazing huge Franks also within walking distance. I also wasn't told about the regular farmers market. The place has hotel rooms as well as dorms. It's very well equipped as a hostel but generally has more of a hotel atmosphere. The laundry facilities are really good but used most of the day by the cleaners. The machines are more likely to be free in the evening but I was a bit irritated that staff took their washed towels out of the washer so I could use it but didn't start their towels drying for quite a while longer even though it was obvious that I would soon be needing the dryer - so then I had to wait more. I felt customer service was just not quite as good as it could have been for that price. Like many hostels in America, there is a lot of disposable plastic used for breakfast (though here they have paper plates and bowls which is hopefully better for the world) and what can and can't be recycled is unclear.
9.1 Excellent
Pros: Rooms are not huge but comfortable, new and clean. Staff was very helpful and polite. The proximity to everything--wine tasting, breweries, restaurants, the beach and all the shops on State St could not be better. Also close to the train station.
Cons: no complaints at all.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: Everything - one of the best hostel I’ve ever stayed at- everything is so great and the guys at the reception are super nice and friendly Closer to bars and restaurants- perfect location
Cons:

Pros: everything perfect apart from the breakfast!
Cons: very poor!

Pros: Pros: Staff with a great attitude and very friendly; good breakfast variety; very clean facility throughout.
Cons: Cons: Poor wall/sound insulation- we heard next door slammed their door as if they are in our room slamming our door, we heard their talking as if they were in our room, loud walking from people upstairs. Noise disturbed our sleep at night. Not a restful experience; no hot water at 7:30am when I wanted to take a shower. Let the water run for 5-10 minutes, still lukewarm; No AC unit instruction- not clear how to turn on the heater, only cold air comes out, it was cold all night; stains on most of the white towels. Thick powerline cable right outside of our balcony in eyesight.

6.0 Good
Pros: location was good, across the street from the beach
Cons: This "hotel" is like 4 or 5 different buildings or annexes. There's no actual lobby, just a check in desk. For $580, I would expect a nicer room or a better view. The room was a corner room with a small window that had a partial ocean view.
5.0 Okay
Pros: Beds were comfortable.
Cons: Contacted a month in advance via bookings.com to revise my booking to add another day, heard nothing. On the day, my request could not be accommodated for the same room. This is understandable but the constant add on charges was frustrating. Parking isn't included. The hotel's price of $36/day has driven customers to fill up the streets instead of their parking lots, which are barren. Breakfast needs a separate package bought and isn't included. Ceilings are thin, heard everyone who walked by. Woke up to a garbage truck beeping at 7:30 AM . At the front desk, other guests checking out had issues with their closet rack coming off, the tub being chipped and as a resulted in a small bruise. In the same breath of their apology, the said the renovations were on going to make things better. The hotel needs to cater to existing customers to have any future ones. Never going into a Hyatt hotel ever again. Lastly, location was further from the main State Street or the wharf. It's a 30 minute walk or 10 minute drive.

10.0 Excellent
Pros: The staff was very friendly and I loved the overall feel of the Hyatt Centric. We were given an updated room. The pool, hotel, firepit, and bar area were very enjoyable.
Cons: The air conditioner in our room was quite loud and didn't work all that well. If I had to do it over again, I might pick a place in Santa Barbara that was a little closer to everything. It was about 1 1/2 mile walk or $7.00 Uber ride.

9.6 Excellent
Pros: Great location, friendly staff, nice room!
Cons: The price of parking was pricey considering how much the room cost.
3.8 Mediocre
Pros: Very close to the beach
Cons: The pictures from the property’s website look nothing like the actual hotel. The rooms were very dated, stains on the bedding, curtains, and walls, the lamp shades were all stained and some were broken. There is no privacy on the balconies/patios. This hotel is something you would expect for a two-star hotel. You definitely do not get what you pay for. I haven’t seen one room or area of this hotel that actually looks like the photos on the internet. For the price, go stay somewhere else.
