This property is conveniently located, clean and in good working order. It is a blast from the past motel with vintage furnishings and old school charm. The downsides: A/C was a bit loud, bathroom a bit small, and breakfast sparse. If this is not a problem for you, its a great place to stay! I'd likely return.

At first we didn't think it was too bad. But then we found the floors had not been cleaned, we had to wipe our feet off before getting in bed. The bedspread was the worst, so much dust in it that when it got stirred up a little we couldn't breathe. If the room had been cleaned better, it might not have been too bad. There was only regular coffee in the room, so we went to try and find decaf, and realized this part of town was full of drug addicts asking for money. Just made us very uncomfortable and feel unsafe. I'm sorry but I would not recommend this property.

Room was clean and spacious with a king bed and queen bed, 2 chairs, a couple small tables. The shower knobs were wonky but worked. The outside looks austere but the rooms were contrastingly great. The location is convenient and very close to garden of the gods and manitou springs. Coffee and some snacks were provided in the morning, nothing great, but can't complain.

The room was bigger, and better than the pictures. The shower was great, kitchen had everything I needed. The location was great. I walked all over!
The bed was comfortable.
The guy who checked me in was not overly friendly, I’d say satisfactory.
It’s definitely surface clean. I moved an end table and no one clearly cleans under things. I opened the curtains, the window and window ceil was dusty. The screen was broken and flies came in.
The parking was very tight. But it had sufficient parking
I would stay here again. I do recommend it, as the good things definitely outweigh the other.

Great place to tuck away and yet be close to the amazing Garden of the Gods, Manitou Springs, Old Colorado City, Incline -- you name it -- Thanks again.

The motel places a high value for cleanliness. The renovation of the guest rooms adds to the character of the motel. The only criticism is the noise level is amplified due to lack of soundproof of the rooms. Unfortunately the rooms on either side of our room failed to control of the noise. we were awaken by music playing and television playing loudly thru the evening.

I was a bit disappointed in the fact that the person staying across from our room couldn’t be bothered to move their vehicle over to their side. So we had to park in front of our unit which was fine but wanted the cover for my vehicle. That’s one reason why we stay there.
Really didn’t want to wash the tree sap off of my car.


Otherwise, we truly enjoy staying there.

Adorable hotel, just needs some extra attention.

The hotel is adorable and it’s in a wonderful location and the people who run it are very friendly and helpful. That said, it’s pretty grubby and not in great shape. The tiles on the bathroom and kitchen floor are broken, things are just dirty, dusty and sticky. We had to rewash every dish in the cabinet. There is so much potential here and we got over our initial surprise at the condition and had a good stay.

This charming motel has a vintage vibe, but is updated just enough. The layout of the room was fantastic, as I'm traveling with a teenager, and with the beds on different walls, I could only see his feet. Two lovely wing chairs gave us a place to relax by the window. We will definitely return!

No lotion offered and soap was 2 tiny bars.
Floor was gritty should have been vacuumed.

Best Little Hidden Gem - Family Owned!!

I cannot say enough good things about this place. If you're into more of a home-like, cozy feel, this place is it. I was going to be staying for 6 days, so got one with a full little kitchen. The furniture is not cookie cutter, more traditional B&B style. The staff (all family) are super friendly and down to earth. It's quiet, even for being close to a highway. Really close to Garden of the God's, Manitou, and easy to get to anything in the Springs. It's definitely my go-to , now, any time I visit Colorado Springs. Oh! And they're pet friendly!

The pictures don’t tell the whole story. Many of the units have one small window and the one we had was partially blocked. And the room was so small we could barely walk around the bed. I would not return to this property.

Comfortable, Functional, Fun

This spot just gave me everything I needed. I wanted a place that would be comfortable enough to recharge as necessary, with a location that could set me up well for bouncing back and forth between Manitou Springs and Downtown Colorado Springs. The Rainbow Lodge delivered the comfort I was looking for, with their furniture and bedding, and topped it off with daily cleaning services as well. I hadn't even realized until I got there that this inn was located right across the way from a bus stop, but this ended up being really beneficial for me getting around (though its location also set me up well to walk to both Manitou Springs and Old Colorado City as well). And as the cherry on top, this place was able to deliver on all of my desires while providing that classic motel aesthetic. The value that I got was quite immense for a rather small pricetag, and I would certainly strongly consider staying here again if I'm ever back in town.

You get what you pay for!

Lower price hotel.
Owners of the property were very nice.
Our room,1 king bed. The bathroom needed “Major” updating. Very small, no Counter space, door wouldn’t close. Bathtub fixtures loose, tub itself was chipped and starting to rust. Toilet paper holder mounted behind toilet hard to reach. Dirty/laminate floor and rug. Pictures on website of room were Misleading. Noisy rooms, paper thin walls, needed to run a/c unit to drowned out the noise.
Location was good for the area.

While this is no 5 star resort, it is well worth the money. Location was great. Only a few miles from downtown Manitou Springs and roughly a mile from Garden of the Gods this hotel was a great jumping off point.

The room was a bit dated with pink tile in the bathroom and a bathroom sink that didn’t work so good, I really liked the room over all.

It almost had an L shape to it where the 2 queen beds weren’t side by side like they are in traditional hotel rooms but each had its own “space”. The shower had some of the best water pressure I have ever had in a hotel, which I really appreciated. Room was clean, and quiet.


Would definitely stay here again.

Nice place, but strong odor

Just an overnight stay and overall was fine. Bed was comfortable, shower was clean, but the smell was very strong. I think it was a mix of bleach and something else...not quite sure, but potent. Woke up in the middle of the night and it was still there.

The motel was soooo cute around the office so I was very excited but then when I drove to my room the area looked like the getto- sooo disappointed ☹️. The exterior paint was pealing and the beach outside my room was broken.
However I give the room an 8.

Clean stay and easy on budget

It was clean and very affordable. Stayed here for acclimation time before Pikes Peak Marathon. Close to Colorado Springs and the start of the race. It’s a motel so not a lot of perks, but the price sweet, it had a fridge and microwave and cable TV. No complaints. Didn’t hear adjacent guests through walls or from traffic and our room was near entrance from road. Eric was super nice and allowed us to check in early. Very friendly staff. Easy to check out. Would
Recommend if you need a place to stay on a budget. Cleanliness matters and Rainbow Lodge was clea.

Historic Motel bordering Manitou Springs

Right near the Welcome to Manitou Springs arch and a few miles from Old Colorado City, Garden of the Gods, Cliff Dwellings, Wind Caves, The Incline and Cog Railway. Historic Motel in a so-so area, though we felt safe. Owned by an On-site family with free coffee, fruit and packaged danish each morning. Unfortunately, the in-ground pool was closed for the season during our early September stay, but I can see how it’d be lovely. Our room had a small kitchen, separate living room and patio. As expected with older buildings, our room was a little musty. Overall, this Motel made for a great little roadtrip with my daughter and our 2 dogs.

Excellent place to stay in Colo Springs!

The hotel grounds were kept beautiful with lots of flowers. The room was apportioned more like a home, with real furniture, rather than regular hotel stuff. The front desk attendant was engaging and helpful. If it weren't for our schedule I would have liked to have stayed longer.

We absolutely loved the retro feel of this adorable motel. Staff were amazing, and were kind enough to lend us a couple of wine glasses for our romantic evening. The pool was clean and had plenty of comfortable seating. The mattress was rather uncomfortable, but did the trick.

Nice place, nice people. When we walked in there was a strong smell of cleaner, (rug cleaner?), that disapated by the time we got back from the Garden of the Gods. It was not a problem at all, rather have that than have my feet stuck to the floor. Didn't have a chance to use the pool, though it looked very inviting.

I'd pick this place again!

Stayed 4 nights on a holiday weekend. Convenience was the big plus, convenient to Manitou Springs-Hwy 24. Lots of eating choices in the immediate area, from local cafe's to fast-food chains, for all three meals.
Encountered some minor problems, but staff & mangement was always friendly and responsive. Being a trip with my grandkids, the pool was a welcome feature for my group.
