Great value for the price. Staff was very friendly.
Good Location with plenty of walkable places. Lots of restaurants and stores nearby which is always a plus.
No microwave in the room but the mini fridge worked wonderfully. Lots of options on the TV as well. Staff was very nice and welcoming. Overall a very nice experience.
Very good option for anyone looking for a more affordable option. Would definitely recommend.
The price and location was great, and there was a nice bakery across the street. But, the rooms were not very clean, and there was evidence of bed bugs with stains on the sheets. The cleaning product smell covered bad smells. My allergies flared up while I was there and went away after checking out, so if you have a sensitivity to some dusts or other allergens, take note.
At one point, Rainbow Motel.may have been down, but the new owners are worki g to turn the experience around. What you get: a clean room with TV and a comfortable bed and shower. But, youre also RIGHT across from arguably one of the BEST bakeries in the country (Weber's Bakery -fresh morning sonuts and pastries), around the corner from Chicago's most popular beef sandwich (Portillo's), within a 2 minute walk of several other restaurants as well as an Aldi, Walgreens and Ace Hardware. BUT... the big perk is a stop on the Archer line out front 50' away. (also a late night bus if you do a late Chocago night) and 1.5 mins walk from the OHare (330) bus. These things made it an ideal cheap stay in a clean room for someone who flew in and out with no car for a music festival. It was SUPER easy to get around and time transit. And dont overlook that late night bus perk. That said, if this is a family vacation, do your homework, but it was an easy yes for a single or couple of adults travelling on a budget.
Dirty room, terrible smell, shower leaked, hair everywhere, was not cleaned before check in. At a point, card did not work to get into room so got locked out. Waited 30 minutes outside in 90 degree heat just to get back inside my room.

So the reason why I say Stars five times is because it feels as if you're looking up to the Stars. These people are so kind it's like visiting a relative. Sometimes we're not satisfied with the smallest things, but they are very easily approachable to acknowledge any of your concerns. If I have one thing to say, this is a place I would love to stay! The experience is more than acceptable it was incredible.
Not clean, given the wrong key twice. The first time someone was in the room and the second time the room wasn't cleaned. Things definitely need to be updated and cleaned thoroughly. Also the photos are false advertisement

For the price of the room, you pay for what you get. The down side to that is that: the floors were dirty, like actually needing mopped, looked like someone spilled something and it wasn’t cleaned up properly. The sheets needed to look brighter. The bathroom needed a different shower curtain. It was dirty at the bottom. I wish I had taken pictures. I would’ve included them with this review.
Did not have a spa at all. The deluxe bedroom has no spa :(
Very very disappointing

it wasn’t clean , definitely just a place to sleep. the pictures the other review show are accurate id think we stayed in the same room. they don’t deep clean at all in between guests.
We booked and paid for the room. When we arrived to check in they said the canceled the reservation so i never got to stay. Now i am having trouble getting my money back. This place is a rip off!
I did not stay there i want a refund door man was rude and it is dirty and dangerous there all type of people lurking around room was not what i requested i will be disputing this on my bank card and when i got there he charged me a extra 50 dollars i need all that back i did not stay he said he would give me a refund i still didn't get it yet

When I get there, the roads were sold out and my money was taken and they told me I cannot get my money back. This is not right.
