Echo Suites Extended Stay By Wyndham Johnson City Medical Cr

Echo Suites Extended Stay By Wyndham Johnson City Medical Cr

8/10 Good
"When I arrived the front desk person, Will, was kind, helpful, and prompt! He allowed me to choose the floor I wanted to be on which was nice since it was just my daughter and I and I wanted to not be ground floor. The only issue I had was that when I first got into the room it appeared the toilet had not been properly cleaned, there was remnants from another. However, as soon as I brought it to Wills attention he offered to change our room and take care of it. I decided to stay in the room, but they did come and fully clean the bathroom which was appreciated. One other thing was that the walls seem quite thin. I could hear our neighbors on all sides, up, down, and next door. Our upstairs neighbors stayer up late and we’re up early also so that was rough. Otherwise, it was a nice place to stay. I felt safe and it was warm and relatively clean, after they recleaned the bathroom!"

"The room was not new, but in good condition. There is a lot of light pollution, so if you need a dark room to sleep, it might be difficult to sleep. The very loud truck that decided 5 AM is a good time to rev their engine wasn’t helpful. That wasn’t the hotels fault, just an inconsiderate guest."

"Our cabin was very clean and orderly. The staff was by far the best part of the whole stay. The fire pit was stocked and kept going by Charles. A small group of us sat by the fire and enjoyed the evening. It was one of the best stays we have had on the road that we can ever remember. We stayed for the location but will come back for the peace and quiet the property offers. The Cafe was a pleasant surprise for breakfast. The building itself large and beautiful. The food, however was even better. Reasonable pricing and exceedingly large portions. Just a really fantastic stay!"
