Works for us.

Rainbow is always clean. Though the rooms are recently updated, the bathroom door is falling off it's reused hinges. The air conditioner/heating unit needs cleaned and the vents need to be replaced. They need a better process, (maybe oxy) to wash the towels. All towels except one hand towel had stains. When we left here was no one available to tell about the broken bathroom door or stained towels

Old and Dated and Rundown

There aren’t a lot of choices in South Fork, CO, but this rundown old motel has seen better days. We never saw an employee. We arrived after their limited office hours (we were there before 5) and never saw anyone when we checked out the next morning. Although everything was very dated, it was reasonably clean and comfortable. Our bedroom had vinyl horizontal blinds (which were broken) and there is no air conditioning. So we had the window open all night and were woken up by the bright sun in our eyes just after dawn.

Thumbs down

I had low expectations, and was merely looking for a ‘crash-pad’, but when I observed plant life growing through the shower walls and a bathroom door coming off its hinges, I knew Hotels.com needed to know what type of motel this is and consider removing it from its options. I would like a full refund.

Did not get one of the cabins with the beds that I was expecting from our reservation. Not sure why not. This was a bit small for our group. Called and asked about kitchen utensils so was surprised to find only 2 bowls, 3 plates, no spoons and 3 cups after I was told it was fully stocked. Stove/oven needed to be lit but no sparker, lighter or matches were provided. Cleanliness wasn't an issue but many items were "fixed" or improved by someone who didn't know what they were doing and didn't work well.

The feel of being a family operated establishment was nice. The front desk staff was very kind and had a good sense of humor. The room, unfortunately, did as well. There were vines growing in the corner of the shower/tub combo. The not to be stained towels came pre-stained in some cases. The TV stand has dried and sticky sugar spilled on it. The bed was comfortable if you like a super soft mattress.
