This is a 1940s motel. It is clean and comfortable but very dated. The front desk woman was very helpful. It had some unique features. The bathroom floor was very strange.

This a cute little 1940's motel that the owner has maintained very well. Does it show its age? Yes, but thats also what makes it unique. The rooms are clean and Gina (office) is very helpful.

Old and super outdated. Not much else in the area. Not worth the $115 we were charged for a night. Room was hot, fridge was not plugged in so it was useless. Very sketchy place, but we didn’t feel unsafe.

This is an old motel. Its conveniently located and reasonably priced for an overnight stay. It was clean but not luxurious. The staff was outstanding.

The staff is so extremely friendly, it is very reasonable as far as price. Extremely clean. It is like a older western style motel, but it definitely beats the other one down the street is way more clean and way more comfortable.

Chatty desk clerk, hard bed, paper curtains
It starts with a chatty lady at the desk, too much chat & little action, paperwork should have been handed prior to arrival, she manually entered every piece of info anyone qould ever want to know about a 1 night stay, way overboard, then she gives my wife & i a room right next to the noisy road when others were available. The hotel room was way out dated but adequately clean, curtains were paper thin so light was way too bright, bed was hard & pillows were hard (give me a My Pillow plz). We enjoyed Thermopolis & the city hot springs & will be bak, but not to the Rainbow motel.

For the price. I have no complaints about the property. Everything is antiquated/outdated. My main complaint about this motel. There is no air conditioning. Received a call from the proprietor prior to us arriving. She seems to be concerned about you having pets and if you're going to show up. During check-in she mentioned something about a swamp dehumidifying / air conditioning system. All the years of traveling I've never encountered this. All this system does is make noise. A simple fan in the room would have been a lot more effective. The listing specifies air conditioningin the Room. in my opinion this is not air conditioning. The room was very warm and uncomfortable,So I wasn't able to fall asleep until well after 2:30 a.m. upon arrival she offered us a bucket of ice. Next morning when we woke up the water was yellow. Not sure what's up with that. Definitely would not recommend this motel. I generally like to support small independent business owners. But after this experience I might just consider sticking to corporate chain establishments. Usually they have some centralized quality control.
