This was a clean, nice room with a small fridge/freezer, a sitting area, a desk,and a well-appointed modern bathroom.There are a lot of hotels on this stretch of road, many of which are awful despite fairly good reviews. This place was quiet, well run and, if I may say it again, clean.

The facility was very clean and well maintained. I arrived on Thursday afternoon and on Friday morning had two cups of coffee and used the two pouches of dry creamer. I learned the if you didn't put the clean room sign out the only service was clean towels. I stayed from Thursday till Monday and not once did get the coffee replaced. I had to walk across the street to Jack in the box to get coffee. The staff should know older have to have their coffee in the morning and don't want to get dressed to go out for coffee. They didn't empty the trash can the entire time was there also. Like I said I didn't put the clean room sign so the bed had not been made all the time was there. That's enough. Would I go back and stay there sure however I have learned the tricks of the trade so to say.

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

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.

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.
