Echo Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham Nashville/ Gallatin

The room was very clean. The building is just a few months old, but it already is showing wear in public spaces. The parking lot, foyer, and hallways are dirty, dusty, and stained. The road leading to the hotel does not yet have the final coat of asphalt, so the manhole covers stick up dangerously so you may need to dodge them to avoid damage to your car’s undercarriage. The water pressure on the 4th floor is the worst I have ever experienced at a hotel in 50 years, but it stays hot for the 30 minutes it will take for a 5-minute shower. The walls are not sound-proof, so you can hear conversations next door. The staff were nice. There is a 24-hour vending machine and exercise room on the ground floor, and a 7-Eleven within an easy 250-yard walk.

Clean and nice. Not a lot of extras. The road into the hotel was under construction and it had sewer lids sticking up out of the ground that would have been bad to hit with no cones to mark it. The walls are super thin, got to listen to the neighbor vomiting all morning. I was there during a tornado warning and it was only myself and 1 other guest downstairs wondering where the staff was. I had to call staff for a key and she told me they have no direction on what to do during a tornado, so if you are not from an area with tornadoes, figure out where you should go.

Very noisy. Can hear all the nonsense in the other rooms. People knocking on my door and someone waking me up the first morning trying to come in my room. When I called the front desk they said they had the room down for repairs. No Do Not Disturb signs available. No hair dryers available. It’s apartments for temporary workers.
