My stay at Howard Johnson by Wyndham Reno Downtown was decent overall. The check-in process was smooth, and the staff were polite, though not particularly warm. The room was clean and had all the basic amenities, but it felt a bit outdated and could use some renovation. The bed was comfortable, but the pillows were too small for my liking. One of the highlights was the location—very convenient and close to Reno downtown. However, the noise from the street could be heard at night, which made it a bit difficult to sleep. Breakfast had a good variety, but the quality was just average. The dining area was a bit small, and service was ok. The Wi-Fi was free but inconsistent, which was a bit frustrating. Overall, it was a decent stay—nothing exceptional, but also nothing major to complain about. It’s a good choice for a short trip if you’re not looking for anything too fancy. ⭐⭐⭐/5

Not as bad as you would think.

Beds are very nice and comfy. Pillows a little above average as far as comfort. Otherwise, quiet and convenient. Price was fair.

They are remodeling so it was challenging to find the office and elevator. Was given a wrong internet code but staff resolved the issue with a new code. Lots of side show noise for all the hotels, the cops need to crack down on that.

Think twice before staying here!!

The pictures on the site make this place look nice and clean but the outside was very rundown dirty looking and sketchy, kinda looked abandon on one side but the room was ok. They offer free breakfast witch is one of the main reasons we chose this hotel......THEY DO NOT HAVE FREE BREAKFAST......they have free muffins. When we checked out there was a gentleman in the office that was behind the counter talking with another person behind the counter who was extremely unprofessional and cussing in front of guess. We will definetly never stay here again.
