Quality Inn and Suites Ft Collins, Fort Collins

Stayed one night in March 2009 while in town for a meeting the next day. Found a deal of $62 and change on some net site, and called the hotel directly to see if they would honor that rate. They did, and the guy on the phone was helpful. I told him I wanted a first floor room that faced the parking lot so I could see my car, and he told me he would make a note of it. Upon my arrival a few days later, the clerk tells me all first floor rooms were for handicapped and queen beds or some crap like that (I had a king bed). I suspected he was feeding me a line of BS, but I wasn't exactly in a position to do anything about it, as I had an associate with me who was staying in another room. I took a room on the second floor, but was pissed the guy I spoke to several days earlier on the phone did not tell me he seemingly could not put me on the first floor. The room was generally clean and nice, and I have no complaints at all regarding it. The only problem was neither me or my associate could get onto the internet in either of our rooms. We went downstairs and talked to the clerk about it, who told us they were having problems with the free wi-fi recently, but the "IT" guys from the hotel chain said it was working right. In other words, the kid told us to pound sand and he couldn't help us. He did give us a phone number to call the hotel IT guys, as he apparently did not want to help us himself. That pissed me off a bit. We wound up poaching off a free wi-fi signal from a nearby modem. This was a night in the middle of the week, and there wasn't hardly anyone at all at the hotel. I saw two other cars in the entire back parking lot, so it was certainly quiet. There is a set of train tracks immediately adjacent to the back lot of the hotel, which made me wonder if we were gonna be up all night listening and feeling trains go by. However, I only recall one going by in the early evening, and I was in the parking lot at the time. It shook my truck, but I can't comment on whether it would bother someone inside the hotel or not. The breakfast was to be expected from a cheap hotel chain. I tried the eggs and sausage, and although the eggs seemed to be powdered, and the sausage patties were greasy as hell, it was nothing less than I expected. Thank goodness they had some packets of picante sauce to kill the bland greasy taste. Check out was quick and painless. Overall a good experience, and for a price of 62 bucks, I would stay there again without hesitation.

Mason is a block off College Ave. so it's quiet and peaceful. Excellent indoor pool / spa. 2-3 miles from campus, 4 miles from Old Town, but easy to get to everything. Breakfast buffet was weak (frozen bean burritos? ... how could anyone say it was one of the best of any hotel ever??), but Egg and I (Bluebird Cafe on Laurel great too) is less than a mile north on College and it's worth skipping hotel's fare for the a quality breakfast. We've stayed at this property 3-4 times over the past 3 years and I would recommend it for value, fairly clean and usually friendly. Internet connection weak in outer rooms, and 3rd floor.

I too lived in FT Collins for 12 years and recently came back for a few short days vacation to see friends. This hotel was fantastic, climate control was perfect, the room itself was very large and spacious, very clean, and with a nice pool and sauna. The lobby is beautiful and the breakfast was one of the best I have ever had in a hotel. Along with the above already mentioned, they allow pets which is a plus for me, and gave me a decent military discount which is also nice. I would, and will definately stay here again and will also reccomend to friends and family. For the price, you can not get anything better I am pretty certain.

If you are accustomed to air conditioned rooms, do not stay here! The temperature was in the mid-90's and the air conditioning works in some rooms and not in others. If you stay in a room on the first floor, you are more likely to have air conditioning.
