Review: When we arrived we thought, “oh-oh” as it didn’t look like much from the street. But the place was well maintained, including the pool and pool area. We were pleasantly surprised at the room. Very clean. Much much nicer than the “fancy” hotel we stayed at the night before. People were very nice and responded to our needs immediately. Also easy to get to places from there. A good location. We highly recommend it., by Sarah and Larry, November 10, 2026, rated 10/10 Excellent

Review: This is an older hotel - kinda feels like visiting my grandma. That said, the rooms are spacious, the folks are super friendly. If you need 5-star, go elsewhere. If you want friendly and affordable with good amenities, stay here. I stay here every time I travel to a Bay Area race., by Terri, April 29, 2025, rated 10/10 Excellent

Review: Staying at this property was nice, the most important impression that I got while staying at the property is that the owners actually CARE about the property - the evidence is all around in the level of maintenance and upkeep. This property is nice, clean and well kept - I would not hesitate to recommend this property., by CJ, February 14, 2024, rated 10/10 Excellent
Review: They have done major work. They room was very quiet, none of the outside world was heard from the room. Very clean as well., by Anonymous traveler, February 26, 2017, rated 10/10 Excellent
Review: 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., by Herbert, October 11, 2024, rated 10/10 Excellent
