    This hotel was so cute! They were in the middle of a remodel, but the spaces that had been updated were so cute.

    This motel was built in the 1960s and was recently renovated. My room had a wonderful retro vibe that made it quite relaxing! My room included a king-sized bed, which was very comfortable. Overall, the room was clean and cozy. The shower had excellent water pressure and plenty of towels and washcloths are provided in the tiled-floor bathroom. Parking is free, with a lot of available spaces. Checking in and out was a breeze and the front-desk staff are very courteous. I would definitely stay here again. The motel restaurant was closed due to renovations (will open in a couple of weeks), but there are plenty of great breakfast options in historic downtown Fort Collins. My only criticism: the desk in the room is ridiculously narrow in terms depth/width, which was located directly under the wall-mounted flat screen TV. I suppose this was chosen for the sake of space. A desk with a more standard width would be more functional for guests.

    The staff were really friendly. The hotel renovation is gorgeous. And the lobby smells amazing! I love the decor that they chose for the renovation. And the story behind the hotel is charming. The room got pretty warm at night, even with the air conditioning going.

    Parking was super easy. We had a very late check in and Zach at the front was so friendly and helpful! I really love the renovations and all the little touches. The hallways were eh (currently under construction) but the room was beautiful, comfortable and clean. Love all the sustainable efforts, the earplugs, the while vibe. I would stay here in a heartbeat if I'm in Fort Collins again.

    Location was ok, close enough to downtown. However Rooms were not serviced, poor dark lighting, heating was not working during minus degree outside temperatures. No coffee, tea or kettle etc in the rooms, no breakfast facilities in hotel, no chairs to sit on in room. Refurbishing of the whole hotel was ongoing and noisy at times. Rubbish bins on landing were not emptied during the 4 days we stayed. This is basically an old motel that has had its day.

    They are in the process of renovating, but I thought they did a great job of still making it a welcoming and comfortable environment. I loved the little touches like the lavender pillow spray and ear plugs. As mentioned in other reviews, the location is perfect and the staff are friendly. Very good coffee in the lobby in the morning.

    We were not informed until the day before that the property was being remodeled. there was no pool available. We were told there would be breakfast - fruit, granola bars, coffee was all that was provided because, no kitchen. I had to go to the lobby to get hot water to make my tea...there was no chair in our room - they were "on order" which did not help us. The toilet clogged twice - fixed quickly, fortunately. But we were offered the use of the lobby facilities while waiting. The staff had few solutions for anything - they did offer excuses.

    This old BW is being renovated into a *darling* little motel right next to the CSU campus. The friendliness of the staff is second to none. The rooms are very clean and have an eclectic vibe with very comfortable beds/pillows. There is no breakfast (just a basket of fruit and bars) so you will need to go offsite. (There was no mini frig in the room, so bringing your own yogurt or overnight oats won't help.) The location is incredibly convenient because it is smack dab on College Ave across from the old Field House of Colorado State. However, if you are a light sleeper, this is not the best location because any cars/motorcycles with loud engines, as well as emergency response vehicles (sirens), will wake you *every* single time (which is probably why the front desk gives you a pair of earplugs at check-in, lol). If you can sleep with earplugs, you will have a great stay.

    It was easy to find. The staff was amazing, super nice!! Rooms were comfy but small. Walking distance to downtown stores, restaurants, etc!! Please note, I am not upset with Best Western. The property is under construction. There is almost no parking. The pool is closed for renovations which wasn’t listed. Breakfast was suppose to be included, however there wasn’t a breakfast at all, so that information is incorrect. There was no microwave no fridge no coffee maker etc in the room, so if you are expecting that it’s not there. You have to go to the lobby to get ice. These set of rooms were an exterior entrance so if that is an issue pick somewhere else. It is On a busy corner across from college(not an issue for us, we wanted to be right by the school) just a heads up for parents with small children. The remodeled new rooms are definitely not updated on booking.com website. Overall disappointed with booking.com lots of incorrect information.

    The beds were pretty comfortable and the room was somewhat clean. Easy access to our car outside. Your advertising sucks!!! No mention of renovation. We didn't have a refrigerator or microwave, there was only access to ice the last day. Also, we stayed because it said full breakfast, that was a lie!!! Wasn't happy with the whole situation, would have moved if we could have gotten our money back. Oh and no desk or dressers to set suitcases on and the sink we could not put both of our things for the bathroom on because it was so small. Curtain was not hooked at the top so light came in and workers were there on Friday morning bright and early.

    Bed rocked and loudly knocked the floor with each knock. Towel fell apart immediately upon entry to room. Windo curtains didn't close. Toilet only big enough for a munchkin, not an adult. Continental breakfast consisted of coffe, apple, and granola bar. The front desk was friendly but couldn't tell us where to park.

    The staff were as friendly as ever. The hotel is under construction, no indication of this was given when booking or in an email prior to arrival. Due to works being done there was no breakfast, and the pool and fitness centre were not available for use. Therefore there was nothing as advertised, just a room. There was no adjustment in price to reflect the fact that these basic facilities were not available. This is my second stay at the property and while it wasn't perfect last time, it was at least as advertised. I can't believe that this was deemed an acceptable way to deal with having paying customers use the property while it is under construction, there should have been some advance warning and a change in price to reflect the fact that there was no breakfast (fruit and dry crackers behind the desk if you requested them) and no pool or fitness centre. On my last visit the breakfast included small yoghurts, pastries/bagels and individual jams etc, there is absolutely no reason why these small items couldn't have been provided in the current state of the lobby. I won't stay here on my next trip to Fort Collins.

    This location is convenient to CSU and lots of activities in Ft Collins. The room was clean. While the location is central, there is lots of road noise. It's an old building and shows it's age. They charge for parking and it's a small lot, I wouldn't want to park a big car. The beds are doubles, hard to fit 2 people on and I definitely wouldn't want to have tried to have my 2 kids share. The beds and pillows are also just okay, not that comfortable.

  • Andreas Jan 2026 · via priceline

    The "Inn" is more of a motel, but the location is great for activities at CSU or in downtown Ft.Collins. Breakfast was okay - standard continental - but coffee was good and they kept the food stocked. But the facility itself is rather bland, with nothing fancy in the rooms. If has an indoor pool, but I didn't use it. Also, the price was very high for this no-frills "Inn". For $20 more, you can stay in a nicer hotel with similar access to the campus and town. Also, they charge $15 a day for parking at this "motel".

    Staff was nice! Ice machine not working in the building we were in & we were told to go to another buildingif we wanted ice. No house keeping staff working so on our 2nd day our room was not refreshed. Indoor pool/hot tub area kinds gross. Another guest cleaned our pile of leaves from the filters hoping the greenness in the hot tub would go away. Pool was not heated so unusable & that was one of the reasons for staying at this location. Should not be charged a resort fee if one of the main items on the resort can't be used. The $15 parking fee per night was a surprise, as I didn't see that when I booked or maybe they just added it. The whole placed seemed run down & uncared for, and some what understandable knowing they been bought out & will be renovating. Very disappointed & I doubt I will return again, even after the name change & refurbishment.

    An average at best motel in a great location. Property is dated and in need of updating. Stayed in a suite and appreciated the extra half bath, but couch in living room was not a pull out. My room was clean but furnishings are worn as is the property in general. Bed was pretty firm and somewhat uncomfortable. Hotel staff were friendly and pleasant. Stayed here because prices at the time around town were very high and this place offered a comparatively reasonable rate. Would stay here again under similar circumstance, but would much rather be at the Armstrong, Elizabeth or one of several other options in the Old Town/CSU area.

I never used. The folks at the front desk were incredibly helpful about all sorts of local things – there seems to be a cult following a Fort Collins. They knew we were all the good craft beer was and all the most delicious restaurants to visit. The room was immaculate and all the things worked. It couldn't have been more pleasant to stay at this best western in Fort Collins Colorado.

    This is a very dated property, the stock pictures do not show this. It was loud due to thin walls. Bedding was creepy and old, thin blankets, would recommend bringing your own. The bathroom counters had gunk on them which we had to clean off when we arrived. The front desk person was very nice, but when I called to find out about a $30 charge on my credit card they put me on a 10 + minute hold and hung up on me when I tried calling back. Had to call BW customer service to find out what the charge was. Never received an email receipt so very frustrating that I had to spend time on this. The charge for parking seemed silly as it is a small, aging hotel with a crusty parking lot. Did not use the pool as it was not heated. Would not stay here again.

    Staff was nice but facility is run down. Sewage stopped up and backed up into the tub. Flooded some rooms and the hall in front of my room. Was also in the parking lot. We were already leaving that day but it was the worst thing I’ve seen at a hotel. They have been bought out and will undergo a huge remodel and rebranding. They is definitely needed.

    Victim of property theft; front desk receptionist not helpful, poor attitude and made stay unpleasant. On-site general manager was very apologetic, but had to leave early and fight for refund for last day as we were unsafe and items not secure in hotel. Cleaning staff gave us dirty looks after speaking to general manager. Horrible experience.

    At 3:30 am the small fridge started making a loud noise. I tried to unplug it plug was behind the dresser. Pulled it out from the dresser and tilted it 20 degrees. Noise stopped. I called front desk to inform at 4:00 am. At 8:45am I checked out and I let them know about the noise issue, and if it was noted for maintenance or the managers. The front desk gal gave me some attitude and said “no”. That was it, did not pursue any follow up, With that attitude I doubt it was conveyed to maintenance. Avoid rm 118

    The hot tub was yellow in color. The front desk attendant said “that’s the way the chemicals make it”. Never seen one the color that wasn’t bad to get into. Pool was filthy with dirt all over the bottom! This place is convenient to CSU, but very dated on inside.

    The outside of the property was fairly well-maintained and the front desk staff were helpful and friendly. The complimentary breakfast was decent and had a variety of options. The hot tub was very small and looked kind of dirty, so I opted out. The room was OK, but had a couple notable issues - the outlet on the desk lamp didn't work, a dresser drawer kept opening on it's own, and there was a big wad of gum stuck behind the nightstand. Housekeeping pounded on the door even though I had the privacy sign posted and there was a loud banging in the hall every morning which I later found out was the housekeeping staff pulling a garbage can of towels up the stairway. Overall, for the money I paid, I can't recommend it.

    Overall is ok but the fridge made a buzzing sound all night and hard to sleep like that, also they charge 10.00 plus tax for parking! I mean all of that should disclose before you book your room, and they asked for an email to have on file , really ? So they can send you offers and other spam?

    Great location. Price seemed high for the type of accommodation but probably because the location was so good. Really appreciated the easy bike rentals on-site & pool/hot tub. Also appreciated the later check-out. IMO 10:00 am checkout is ridiculous. Earlier checkin and later check out times are important “amenities” for a lot of travelers.

    We booked this just because of its proximity to the University, but unfortunately it’s just not up to par. We actually didn’t stay and found a nice place close by. It was very loud with exterior facing rooms which are fine but lots of noise in the parking lot and main road. Biggest issue was that we were told that you can completely control the temperature and we could not turn off, the heat completely in the room the spite being a 75 degrees. You could turn it down, but not totally off which was crazy so we left and will be requesting a refund.
