Fort Collins Super 8 Motel

Only reason I gave this hotel a one star is because they would let you leave a zero
This place is a disgrace !!
Pet friendly my ass !!
They charge a $ 15 pet fee. Fine
It’s a no smoking hotel fine
However we had no hot water so were moved to another room the next morning at 8:30am. Get a call from front desk saying there was dog pee on the bathroom floor of our previous. I requested to be shown it
I get to our previous room at which time I look at the bathroom and there is water all over the toilet floor and wall where housekeeping was cleaning
If there was mind you IF there was pee how would they know because the floor was wet all over
Plus the maintenance man has his big dog wondering all over and it had been in that room with them
Who’s to say it didn’t pee there … Again if it was pee !!
Then I just walk away with housekeep and their maintenance man yelling and being rude to us. I call the front desk because I wanted corporate number to make a formal complaint against their staff
I proceed to go outside to smoke a cigarette because it’s a non smoking hotel
The maintenance man proceeds to follow me outside and harness me. At which time I started video taping him with my phone
He tells me that the housekeeping lady is the «general manager «right whatever. If she was she would be handling this issue not you harnessing a customer
He proceeds to tell me they want us to leave
Fine because I’m not staying another minute here
It’s 10:30am checkout is 11:00
They tried to charge me an extra night plus additional charges they put on my credit card if $ 500 !!!
Yes $ 500 !!
I called my bank disputed the charges
I have left a voicemail on corporate phone
I have left a review on their Facebook page a review here plus I’m leaving another on Trip Advisor
I will gladly send Super 8 corporate the video of there oh so «professional staff»
And if this issue isn’t resolved I will also post the videos all over any and all social media sites just to show how very unprofessional and rude this establishment is
The ball is in Super 8 court for now
Stay away from this place at all cost
Come across the street to motel 6
It’s clean you have hot water and they are truly pet friendly
Oh and cheaper !!
Shane on you Super 8
Your hotel here is a total disgrace !!

I wish I didn’t have to give ANY stars for this place. First of all, please do not call yourselves «pet friendly”-because what you expected us to do to our cats was cruel. I have half a mind to report this company to PETA or ASPCA. Maybe it’s «dog friendly» but definitely not hospitable towards all pets. We were required to pay an additional $ 15 per fee-​aside from the ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLAR security deposit. I can’t believe they have the stones to charge a security deposit for this crappy motel. It’s ludicrous! We were told it was for incidentals. Then, we were told that we WEREN’T ALLOWED TO TAKE OUR CATS OUT OF THEIR CARRIERS. We had been on the road for 20 hours and these crooks demanded $ 175 in total «security» deposit for us to keep our cats in their cages. And not to mention we could not leave them alone in the room. This disgusting display of «hospitality» was just the most atrocious experience I’ve ever encountered. To top it off, our room (which reeked of split pea soup) was $ 98 FOR ONE NIGHT. AT A SUPER 8 MOTEL. Highway robbery. The one positive was that there weren’t any bed bugs. Overall experience was a NIGHTMARE. I would have much rather stayed at the seedy looking 9 Motel next door than give these cat abusers my money.

Upon traveling across this country many times and staying in a lot of places, this location ranks as one of the crappiest motels on record. Unfortunately Unilocal does not allow 0 stars. Was it clean, yes. Was it safe, yes. Was it pet friendly, no. Was it like checking into a concentration camp, YES. Despite their advertising, the supplemental forms, disclaimers, and bullshit paperwork required to get a key to a room is not worth the effort. Seriously, sign this paper stating you will not commit a crime. Next, sign this document stating you will not smoke marijuana in the room. OK since you have a pet sign yet anther document declaring that you will not let said animal out of it’s carrier to touch any furniture in the room. THEY ARE NOT PET FRIENDLY. Let me emphasize that point, they are NOT PET FRIENDLY. THEY TOLERATE YOUR PETS WITH SIGNIFICANT THREATS OF FINANCIAL RETRIBUTION IN VIOLATION OF THEIR GULAG STATUS. After that, fill out yet ANOTHER document with all the license plates in your party. If you are moving cross country with multiple rental vechicles, is that necessary? Security my ass, locked down 26 foot yellow trucks are hard to miss. It took 45 minutes from arrival at this gulag, to getting the key to the room. After driving 13 hours the last thing you need you to do is to bow down and subjugate yourself to some petty pretend god who is way to proud of their crappy corner of their version of the world. Avoid this establishment like the plauge unless you like to be treated like a subjugated idiot. Simple tip, book the Motel 6 in the same area, the Waffle House is in their parking lot and the room will be a significant savings

Great price for the room and pet-​friendly. Room/​bathroom were clean and smelled fine. Bed was comfy. Service was good.
The free wifi is a little spotty and you have to re-​login every so often.
The free breakfast is okay — the waffles aren’t that good but there’s a variety of foods to choose from.
Overall, I’d stay here again.

We had originally made reservations at a nearby hotel only to cancel (without a fee) after reading many bad reviews, one of which about the hot tub being non functional which is something we really wanted after a day walking the UNC campus. This hotel had alright reviews and a spa, so we checked in, initially the girl who checked us in seemed as if customer service was not what she was about. She had a bit of a smile but didn’t respond to questions asked to her. Anyways, the room was clean, smelled clean (no smoke like some rooms smell like) so we settled in. While settling my husband perused around and found the hot tub had a sign saying it was out of order. He inquired and the girl told him it had just been filled, had to warm up, should be done by 7, my husband explained we would very much like to use it and had to get up bright and early in the morning and also explained the issue as to why we didn’t stay at the first hotel, she rolled her eyes as if it was a huge pain that we actually wanted to use the thing. At 7 still no go, so we asked again to which she said she would call us when it was ready. And call she did at 10pm so my husband got out of bed to check it out, was still cold. I guess the whole point is I understand these things happen but considering Motel 8 «prides» itself on customer service, she could have showed a bit of empathy, even if it was fake. This girl, I give a 1 and the room a 3. If you don’t want to serve people GET A DIFFERENT JOB! Don’t think I will be back again…

I stayed at the Super 8 for 2 nights over the weekend while I was attending a music festival in Fot Collins, just so I could have a «home base”-a place to recharge a bit and of course sleep. In terms of that, it fit the bill just fine.
The place looks slightly suspect on the outside, and is on the outskirts of town near some other cheap motels. It’s small, and only two stories. But the inside is actually not bad at all, especially for the price. I never visited it, but there is a hot tub and a fitness room included, as well as a continental breakfast.
Our room was a little musty and dingy, but not terribly so. The TV is pretty old school, and doesn’t offer anything like pay-​per-​view, but still has a good range of channels. The shower was surprisingly good. The bed was comfortable enough, but definitely left a lot to be desired.
The staff was friendly and helpful, with the little interaction I had with them in checking and out.
Overall, this Super 8 isn’t a bad choice if you need a cheap place to stay, but I might stay somewhere else next time if I can afford to.

Friendly staff and a nice clean room, for those that want five star facilities pay five star prices.

The price for this hotel was so inexpensive, I was not sure what I would find when I arrived & was prepared to find another hotel. For 4 days, it was surprisingly adequate. The staff was helpful, had free wi-​fi & the room was quiet. The most important thing to me is cleanliness, & it was, indeed, clean. They have free continental breakfast (waffle, cereal, muffins, cheap pastry & flavored creamers for coffee). There is a Mexican restaurant & a Denny’s next to the hotel & it’s right off the highway. I would stay there again.

Know what’s fun? Getting stuck in a room on the second floor in the rear of the motel, and hearing (and feeling the shudder from) the exit door slamming every fifteen minutes while you’re trying to sleep. Eighty dollars well spent.
Everything else was fine. Clean sheets, coffee maker, no shadowy lurkers skulking around. But I needed sleep that night, and very little was afforded me due to the noise.

Date stayed: 7÷16−7÷18
Nothing like arriving at your destination only to have to pass through the smokers’ guantlet of workers on a break on the front steps. Two of them hanging out.
Room — King sized bed, desk, dresser, Lazy-​Boy, TV, safe, coffee pot — no fridge or microwave. There is a washer and a dryer in the hall. And a creepy sauna that I didn’t bother to go in and check out.
Smell — Like my Gram’s place. A tad musty with an air freshner scent.
Cleanliness — deceiving to an extent. I walked in and thought the room was fine and then I got a good look at the tub. Someone is short shrifting the grout. Seriously, there was orange mold and a bit of black in the corners. You could also see rub marks near the drain and the scum left behind. It wasn’t worth it to me to complain and I didn’t say anything when I left but c’mon. The only scum I want in my tub is my own. Don’t forget the two stray hairs either. Other than that the room was fine and the towels are on the small side.
Bed — perfectly fine for me — firm.
Take note that there are a ton of hotels near this one since it is right near the interstate: La Quinta, Sleep Inn (?), Ramada, etc. You are on the outskirts of town here.
Restaurants within walking distance on your side of the road: Hacienda Real — think 3 Margaritas, Denny’s, and Waffle House.

Other than the weak excuse for a fitness center, I really don’t have anything bad to say about our stay at the super 8.
Our room was clean, quiet and in a great location right off of the highway. They offered free Wi-​fi and coffee and muffins in the morning.
It was a no frills hotel who gave me exactly what I need in between Mountain treks. It gave me a comfortable bed, and a hot shower. I would be more than happy to stay at a Super 8 on my next vacation.

To be honest, I was a little concerned after winning a Priceline bid for this hotel. I always regarded Super 8’s sort of like one step up from places that rent by the hour.
But to my surprise this location was clean and neat, albeit no frills. (the one frill offered was a bottle opener attached to the bathroom sink counter. Hey at least the Super 8 knows whats important!)
The one bad thing was the «fitness center», which wasnt a fitness center by any means, but 2 aging cycling machines next to an old sauna (broken at the time) and whirlpool tub. Depressing if you were in there alone, borderline disturbing if you wanted to try and exercise with some old, pot bellied man heaving himself in and out of the tub wearing plumbers crack shorts.
Basically the bed was OK, the location OK, the service OK. Breakfast was a rather generic offering of juice, coffee, muffins, and bagels which we didnt partake in, but at least it was set up nicely. All in all just an OK place.
