The room was cozy and clean. Beds and pillows very comfortable. Nice space to store traveling items. Great location in town. My only suggestion would be that rooms should have a mini fridge for storing cold drinks. Overall nice play. Would stay again and recommend to others.

This was the first time I stayed at The Buxton, a Best Western Motel. I stayed here because of the close proximity to the Colorado State University campus. 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.

Came during construction, so a bit unappealing to look at. Walls are thin and room smells a bit funky. The place needs a renovation. However, the front desk staff was amazing though!! Very accommodating!

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.
