Is the Rebel T5 a Good Beginner Camera?

I have a chance to get a Canon Rebel T5 camera with two lens (EF-S 18-55 mm IS II and EF 75-300 mm f/4-5.6 III) for under $500.  Is this a good beginner level camera? Are those lens good for beginning shooting or is there one that is better?  Just wondering as I do know there is a T5i and a T6 but they are more money than I want to spend unless necessary.  Thanks for any opinions you all may have.
