Never flown Ryanair as I'm US-based and when I travel to Europe it's usually to major destinations (LON in particular).
As to EI, I've only flown them across the Atlantic, but I've found them to be absolutely fine. I'd go as far as to say they were on a par with BA, although perhaps with older planes. While they do have a reputation as moving towards an LCC model, I didn't really see evidence of that from their long-haul product. I was more than satisfied.
