I stayed here when transferring over night from the west bound California Zephry to the south bound San Jaoquin through the Central Valley It's a two mile walk down Alhambra Street. Martinez is a very nice community and the Muir Lodge is no frills place with modern amenities and a great price, perfect for my purposes. It's right on Alhambra so there is traffic noise. Next time I will ask for a room further from the street.

This is a really nice place to stay, off the radar of most. The rooms are nice, not overdone, and a fun downtown is short drive or an easy walk away. Whenever in Martinez, I stay here.

Well, the biggest thing here is price. For the price, it is the best value one can get in lodging. I had no problems at all. Air conditioning was good. Bed and pillows comfortable. Furniture...adequate. Easy chair was good and appreciated. Bathroom and shower was clean and adequate. Front desk was good. Neighborhood was very pleasant. Television was good. Electrical outlets...needed more of them. It is a tech world we live in. ha. Lighting...adequate.

Quaint. Single story. Only about 15 rooms. Nicely redecorated inside. Easy location to get to on and off the highway. All good things. The only negative was the reception. He wasn’t rude just not friendly. Other than that great place to stay.

What I liked: the room was clean, there were plenty of electrical outlets, plenty of lighting choices for the room, and for the most part we had a parking space close to our room. What I didn’t like: the decor of the room didn’t fit with the theme of the motel, the water faucet was intensely loud when turned on, and on the final night of our four-night stay, other guests stood outside our room talking loudly and partying until almost midnight. We felt encroached upon and intimidated due to this behavior which we feel should have been dealt with immediately by motel management.

We were really impressed with the inside of the room we had, dont let the outside scare you off. Someone did smoke weed outside our door later at night but other than that it was a good stay.

Unprofessional Hot Mess
Arrived at 3pm and noticed neighborhood was questionable but still had hope the room might be ok as we had an event that started at 5pm that we still had to drive to. Upon entering the small front office we noticed it was stuffy (no AC) and smelled like a restaurant. The front office person took our ID and after checking on the room, returned to tell us it would not be ready until 330pm. He said that the maid was busy cleaning another room and she would get to ours next.There were no other clients there. Then they offered to let us into the room in the meantime as we needed to start getting ready. As we walked up to our assigned room I glanced inside at what appeared to be the remains of a night of partying with beer bottles on every surface and the stench of alcohol mixed with some type of previous attempts to mask unpleasant odors with cleaner. There was no possible way either of us could have tolerated the smell. We told him we would not be staying whereupon he informed us there would be no refund as we prepaid. At minimum he ought to have been able to discount our stay based on the “LATE check-in”. And honestly should have never offered us to even go near that room. There were no other rooms available. Disappointing.
