Old world charm, lovely staff and brillant location.
Pros:

The Armstrong Hotel has a wonderful ambiance of old world charm with modern touches. My room was very cosy - I had a corner suite - and the additional sitting room area was perfect for me to use as a work space. The bed was so comfortable it was like getting into a fluffy cloud every night. The staff were very helpful and friendly and my room was always beautifully cleaned every day by the cleaning staff. The food in the restaurant was absolutely delicious and fresh and the downstairs bar area was an added bonus that felt like stepping back in time. It's near to all amenities in Downtown Fort Collins including cafe's, bars and shops of all types. It is just a couple of blocks from a Target and a Lucky's Market so I could stock up the fridge in my room with snacks.

Cons:

Really, there is nothing I would change.

Location!
Pros:

Location! Downtown with tons of nice shops and restaurants. Decor takes advantage of old style hotel rooms. Bed is great, room clean. Room is small, like all old hotels. Nice folks.

Nice introduction to Historic Fort Collins
Pros:

Great location and lovely hotel. Parking/dining credit was a good value. Room was comfortable and air conditioning worked great as it was quite warm during our stay. Cafe dining hours a little inconvenient given the 9 am start time but overall a pleasant experience.
