Old style motel, like a Travelodge, but meticulously updated for a pleasant modern stay. Short walk to coffee, restaurants, and the Muir house.

Great sinks and bath combo.

Outstanding pair of sinks on spacous counter for two. Very good beds. Strong AC but difficult to regulate. Good WiFi. Walking distance from Muir National Historic site No in hotel food. Martinez is very cute.

Nice, comfortable stay in Martinez CA

I've stayed here before and enjoyed both times. I like that there are two bottles of water (complimentary) in the room as well as a couple of breakfast pastries. The bathroom amenities appear to be high quality. The towels were large and soft! I'm sure it's hard to keep up on but the only observation of something needing attention was the front porch; it appeared that the previous guest had spilled something sticky and bits of dirt and debris were clinging to the spill.

This updated classic mid-century motel has interior updates but remains unfinished. There was a bad smell in the closet next to the bed (no doors to close it off). I reserved a king bed that morning but upon arrival was told it wasn’t available due to “a plumbing problem.”

Alhambra Ave. is right there and noisy although less so in the evening. The rooms don't have carpets and thus not as comfortable.

Room was spacious, updated and clean. Bed was comfortable and there were 2 chairs that reclined so we didn't have to resort to sitting on the bed. Staff were friendly and courteous. Hotel was conveniently located for our purposes.

Super clean, quick check in, comfy bed, convenient parking. Only drawback is the traffic noise. Ear plugs were on the nightstand, so managers are aware of the issue. Not sure if anything could be done to soundproof the rooms. Other than that, a very nice motel!

upon checking into room we noticed debris on the floor under chairs and bedstands. TV was unable to navigate to any channels-had to call front desk and person brought a different remote to get TV working. Had to be done again the following morning so this time he left "special" remote so we wouldn't have to call again. blanket and sheet did not fit the mattress, Was our 2nd time here and appears a lot has changed since 1st visit..
