Breakfast was basic, but adequate. We liked that it went until 10:30 am, giving us plenty of time to walk first.

Stayed at the Eagle Inn for a weekend getaway and it was fantastic! The rooms are cozy and spotlessly clean, with a charming Spanish-style vibe that fits perfectly with Santa Barbara's coastal charm. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, recommending great local spots for dinner. Location is unbeatable—just steps from the beach and State Street shops. Highly recommend for a relaxing escape!
