Served my needs at a very high cost.
Pros:

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.

Cons:

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".

It worked, but I wouldn't go back
Pros:

This location is convenient to CSU and lots of activities in Ft Collins. The room was clean.

Cons:

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.

Not likely we will return.
Cons:

The beds were more Full size and very uncomfortable. One of them had a lump in it where the bed spring was in your back. And every time you moved, there was a loud squeak.

Older Property, but well kept, clean and convenient. Friendly staff and Good value for the price.
Pros:

Convenient location. Older property, so the rooms are a little small, but well kept and very clean.

Cons:

Very quiet overnight, but traffic and train noise starts pretty early in the morning. To be expected in a busy downtown location.

Will not stay here again, highly do not recommend.
Pros:

The location to CSU Fort Collins. The front desk staff were friendly and professional. The check out staff was very apologetic about the condition of my room.

Cons:

My non-smoking room smelled heavily of marijuana and cigarette smoke, so much that the smell was embedded in the bed and towel linens. I left the door and window open for a couple of hours, but it did not help. I slept w/the window open although there were strong wind gusts throughout the night as well as below 40 degree weather. The room temperature was 85 degrees when I first entered, exasperating the smoke smell. I attempted to cool down the room, but the cooling system did not work well. Even though I showered in the morning, I felt dirty after staying in the room. The 6.1 rating was clearly justified after staying there. I will not stay at this hotel again. It's location to CSU Fort Collins is prime, but the run-downed condition of the hotel is just not worth it.
