This best Western had absolutely no reason to be as good as it was. It's in a lovely tree lined street… Very easy parking. My room was gigantic and had an entire living room section. 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.

The room was clean but dated with limited seating beyond the bed and work chair. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was basic - not very appealing compared to all the great options available in Fort Collins. Lots of disposable plastic items in use.

The bed was very comfortable. The location was very noisy. The air conditioner didn't do any cooling, just blew the air around and made the room smell like a football locker room. The carpet felt yucky on my bare feet. I would call it a typical college town motel but the price was kind of high for the overall quality.

Mediocre experience. The window air unit was loud, smelled of mold or something like it, and the WiFi went on/off every 5-10 minutes, regardless of time of day. This place is close to CSU campus, but there are likely better places of value to stay nearby.
