Rainbows at rainbow motel
The unit was brand new, huge and gorgeous. The bathroom was huge too. The bed was very hard which is great if that’s what you like, but we’ve been spoilt with softer beds. The service was a little too friendly; I prefer quiet enjoyment.

This is a non-smoking Motel. However, the guest next to my room kept smoking throughout the night. The smoke came into my room through the adjoining door.

On a main highway
Although noisy from the traffic, it was convenient for travelling to places along the Kings Highway. I would prefer a cleaner hotel, but I was out most of the day. It was a short car ride to Queanbeyan and the shops and there was a petrol station and Post Office nearby.

Typical budget motel. A little run down but comfortable. I was surprised there was not more road noise - windows were double glassed.

Cheaper, Basic, Dated but Comfy Motel
Motel Room has everything you need for a short stay and things works satisfactorily. One bedside light not functioning - no problem. Comfy bed. Motel is on King's Highway but no noise problems. Only worrying issue was dirty plastic cup in bathroom in toothbrush fitting. Dead insect and dirt from a few weeks ago possibly.

3 star lodging that basically fulfils this rating. Room was clean, neat and tidy. AC was adequate (coped with extreme heat at night). TV was marginal with aerial interference.

Its good enough
I was visiting a friend, and needed 2 nights for somewhere to stay. It turned out this weekend was SummerNats and everywhere was fully booked. So I felt happy I found somewhere just a few mins from their house. The room is small, but its clean. You get what you pay for. Everything works. There is a microwave and a toaster, which is a major bonus for a room at this price. However, apart from a small bar of soap, there are no toiletries. And no tissues. I am not a heavy sleeper, and when the neighbour sneezed at 3am, I was awake. So the walls are not too thick. The host was very nice and polite and friendly, and I saw it was a nice touch when she saw I had cereal, and apparently no bowl, and a spoon and bowl appeared. She also speaks Chinese Mandarin if you need to know that. From my perspective, this accommodation was good enough. The whole place desperately needs a refresh, but if you were like me, and just need somewhere to sleep, shower, and do a bit of work on a laptop and eat a basic meal, its fine.

A small dated motel that served the purpose.
The Rainbow is an old motel that is not flash. My room was out the back and quiet. It was clean and tidy. Free wifi.
