Nice hotel for the price. Clean rooms, good selection for breakfast. Easy access to the campus area, and a very short walk to many restaurants. Comforters on the bed were not very comfortable, but the bed and pillows were great. Mini fridge in room, but no microwave, so it's good if you like cold leftovers. Decent parking situation, extra spaces are only half a flight of stairs from the main parking. Overall, a nice place, I would stay there again.
Positives: Front desk was very helpful.
Negatives: Comforters were not so comfy.
Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 19 Mar 2010 rated 9 out of 10.
Great location. Amenable staff were knowledgeable about nearby restaurants. Parking is secure. Off street rooms are very quiet.
Positives: Location walking distance to restaurants, coffee shops and parks. Easy access to Old Town Ft. Collins.
Negatives: Worn out hallways, carpets and entry ways in back building.
Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 07 Sep 2008 rated 4 out of 10.

This hotel was perfect for our needs, and had the most comfortable beds I've ever encountered at a hotel. The staff was attentive, the rooms were clean and high quality. They had free high speed internet, but it was not wireless. They had breakfast available, but it was pricy for what it was, so we went to one of the many local restaurants. I would stay here again!
Positives: It was quiet and in a great area of Fort Collins.
Negatives: No free breakfast.
Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 03 Jun 2008 rated 9 out of 10.

Negatives: Nothing I didn't like.

Negatives: Room was small.

This is the second and last time I will go with you for picking out hotels/motels. Everyone I have gotten was a lousy dirty motel. This one was dirty, small and next to railroad tracks and a university with noisy students.
Positives: I didn't was a nasty hotel, dirty and next to railroad tracks.
Negatives: Everything.
Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 20 Sep 2007 rated 9 out of 10.
Perfect for me and my needs. Comfortable and clean, with friendly helpful staff. I may sound goofy, but the tread on the stairs was a real problem though. I had painful scrapes on both ankles; fix that and you get my highest rating.
Positives: Great location to see old downtown and safe and friendly and comfortable feel.
Negatives: Only problem was that the outdoor stairway had sharp tread on the steps that scraped both my ankles as I walked up with my luggage.

When I spoke to the desk person about moving to another room, she was somewhat belligerent but finally made some calls and we were put in a better room.
Positives: The staff was somewhat helpful in getting us a different room other than the one provided.
Negatives: The room smelled like parmesan cheese, small as a postage stamp, windows didn't open, bath vent fan broken.
Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 14 Aug 2007 rated 5 out of 10.
Hotel was clean with charm; room was extremely small with only a double bed.
Positives: Clean, unique.
Negatives: Extremely small room with double bed.

This is a budget hotel with few upgrades. The location is good to the University. The staff is not helpful. The staff did not care I could not stay in a room that had been smoked in - tough luck.
Positives: Location.
Negatives: Smoking rooms, not friendly staff.
Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 01 Jun 2007 rated 8 out of 10.
The location across from campus was awesome.
Positives: The location was fabulous.

If you are looking for an overpriced hotel with cramped quarters and parking this best western is for you. Make sure that you bring your handyman shoes to replace all of the burned out bulbs. You will have to be fast on your feet and be able to jump in and out of the shower while it varies from freezing to scalding. Talk to the advertising people who are promoting the hotel because of their rudeness you will never watch a commercial again. Motel six is a nicer place to stay.
Positives: Great location.
Negatives: The hotel was over priced with very rude and egotistical people making a commercial. Room was small and my wife replaced two burned out light bulbs.

For the price I would stay here again. Although the room was very small it was neat and clean.
Positives: Awesome location, close to town center.

The hotel is really close to campus and old town, which is great. It is a very retro little building. The continental breakfast was fairly big and they have 24-hr coffee and cookies available.
