Echo 1055 Apartments, las-vegas-nv

I’ve had such a great experience at Echo 1055! From the moment I walked in, the staff has been incredibly welcoming, friendly, and always willing to help with any questions I have. They truly go above and beyond to make residents feel valued. The property is also very clean and well-maintained. You can tell the team takes pride in keeping everything looking its best, from the common areas to the grounds. One of the biggest things that stands out to me is how safe I feel living here. The community is well cared for, and it gives me peace of mind knowing the staff is attentive and works hard to create a comfortable environment for everyone. If you’re looking for a place with an amazing team, a clean community, and a great atmosphere, I definitely recommend Echo 1055!

The stuff is very very helpful. I love the tour. They were very thorough and explaining the lease agreement the expectations and showing us what amenities were available to us if we at least with them. The area was very very clean there was no issues no disturbances. Love the little store that's at the corner of the building next to the leasing office. Definitely applied and I'm glad to be moving in soon.

While the location of this apartment is nice for students, that is the only thing about it that is nice. I just moved out after a two years at ECHO and have had bad experiences throughout the entire time. Firstly, upon move in the apartment was dirty and there was trash under almost every pieces of furniture. This was just the start of a very frustrating experience with this apartment. There are consistent issues with the elevators, especially the back elevator used to get to the garage. Additionally, expect the amenities, especially the pool, to be closed for random reasons. We spent an entire 3 months without pool access last summer, despite it being peak pool season. And the pool is ALWAYS dirty. The maintenance team is kind, but they do not perform efficiently or quickly. Our apartment was without a microwave for 2 months during our stay despite repeated visits to the office to remind them of our issue. The gate to the garage was broken for MONTHS even though it is advertised as a way to protect residents and our property. They don't ever remove stains from hallways or clean common areas as there was a mess in our common room for an entire semester. They also scam residents for high rents. Last year I had renewed my lease for an increase in rent. Towards the end of the application season they offered huge discounts on rent. When I asked to see if I could receive that discount, I was told since I already renewed my lease I could not get the lower rate. They are punishing residents for renewing by increasing their rent, yet giving massive discounts to everyone else to try and fill the space. Lastly, upon move out they have charged my apartment a total of $1700 for a repaint even though we did not leave any visible marks, scratches, or stains. They were not available to do a walkout and then did not provide pictures of the "damages". When I contacted the office to dispute charges I was told they could not be disputed. After I paid the charge a different manager emailed to discuss which charges I wanted to dispute. There is no internal communication in their offices and the front desk and management staff are often rude and standoffish. Living here will cost you an arm and a leg, and aside from the location (which is only good because you are close to campus since homeless sleep right outside the building) the amenities are not worth that rent price.

From the day I toured at Echo 1055 I felt so welcomed and knew this was my home away from home! The staff has been so helpful and supportive throughout the entire process. Just steps away from campus, great amenities, I love everything about this community!

As a resident of Las vegas for over a decade and a UNLV student, If you are a student looking for off-campus housing, you might want to think twice before signing a lease at Echo1055/YUGO Las Vegas, whether or not you’re working class or rich you can get way better for way less. While the location may SOUND convenient, the overall value does not hold up compared to other options in nearby Aliante (favorite), Centennial/Skye Canyon, or Enterprise/Southern Highlands (closest by car). By car or even bus, you’d be better off for a better quality of life, even if you came to Vegas for school. You’re paying Summerlin money to struggle and you can barley bring guests over as the guest parking spots are few. And if your guests park at a normal spot because it’s full, they will have them towed and charged $300 USD just to get your car back by their towing company. The business model preys on students who typically don’t know better. But after anywhere from 6 months to one year, most know better and vacate even if the web portal they use to fill a relet form is broken. I liked living around people my age, but this particular setup was overpriced and high stress. Also the main elevator was always out of service. And if you try breaking the lease early after realizing the reality of the situation, they will try and pressure you into paying for the rest of your lease aggressively even if you vacate the premises. It only has 4 stars because they used to beg everybody. The rent is exceptionally high, and you can expect surprise rate hikes along with numerous hidden fees. For the same price, you can easily find higher quality and safer student apartments elsewhere. Additionally, the roommate matching process is unreliable, often pairing students with non-students. Even when you get a student they may not be decent. My very first roommate here was off the same ethnicity as I was but would was fish and spit it on the bare floors and because I was American, he would call me xenophobic. The one after him extorted me for my ADHD medication and pushed our other roommate while on a 3 day binge. The same guy took my cat when I was sick forcefully and lost him in the building and I had work the next day. I had maybe 3 or 4 good ones over my time here but the rest were terrible. Another guy would throw parties with like 50 people against the lease and people would vomit and fights would break out at 6AM and somehow corrective action as mandated in the lease was never enforced. Maintenance is another major concern. The building suffers from severe plumbing and water issues, leading to flooding. My fourth story unit used to leak rain and the building is 5 stories. If you have any sort of respiratory issues the MVOCs in the air could trigger it. The trash vaults are also frequently broken. Furthermore, the management makes the lease break process incredibly difficult, and their online relet portal is often conveniently broken when you need it most. Living on Tropicana will make you late to all your appointments, work, social functions, most things. Save yourself the stress and get a real apartment or a townhouse or even single family. You will have your peace, have way more space, and save money. Even if you MUST live by UNLV, there are units nearby which cost like 50% less and you don’t have to deal with as much. We have had members of the nearby homeless population dash in like “tomb runners” as seen in the photograph provided. The UNLV surrounding area and campus are objectively dangerous.
