Scott, CONCORD

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff was nice and welcoming. Location is convenient to the freeway. While it seems many updates were made to the property, some items could use improvement - for example, the door was not flush with the framing which allowed a draft and road noise into the room. This may also explain why it smelled of cigarette smoke.

The outside looks like a charming 1940-50ish roadside motel. Cute as can be with red period chairs. Step in to completely remodeled modern furnishings, comfortable beds. Will return!

Safe & Adequate

It was fine. If you want to turn in for a night's sleep in Martinez, this could be the place. It felt safe enough to house a 9 yr old kid & parents. Has a Jack in the Box right in the front. So you'll be fine for dinner.

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.
