Echo Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham Reno is a classic case of an excellent hotel concept entirely ruined by cheap, corner-cutting construction.
On paper, this property looks great. It is brand new and exceptionally clean. The suburban South Reno location is safe and convenient, the free parking is great, and the front desk staff are welcoming. The modern layout and the full-sized refrigerator and two-burner cooktop are great.
However, the physical building feels like it was put together with cardboard. The most severe issue here is the noise—the walls and ceilings are absolutely paper-thin. It is blindingly obvious that this hotel was wrongly constructed with virtually zero acoustic insulation. You can vividly hear your neighbors' entire daily routine: heavy footsteps above you, quiet conversations through the walls, televisions, and even the sound of a neighbor using the bathroom. The structural noise disruption is so unbearable that I only got one night off three a good sleep,but this only because that night no other guest were next and above me. I would not recommend staying here.
