This property did not provide the type of room I had reserved, they offered another room which I did not wanted and they guided me to call Expedia for cancellation, I called Expedia but the property changed their word telling Expedia they can offer same room, once they knew I am no longer interested in that property, I did not feel safe when I realized they are lying and changing their word constantly, they only wanted to charge me. This was a rubbery, Stay away from this place.

I actually left and checked into another hotel as the place felt very unsafe. The owners were arguing. The rooms had no window. I honestly wondered if I would wake up alive in the morning

What can I say, this is not a typical hostel for a young traveler when he/she is traveling on a budget, trying to stay safe, in a clean and comfortable space where there’s a sense of community and an opportunity to meet new and interesting people. This is more like a combination of halfway house with low income people where half of guests is either drunk or stoned, some people “volunteer” there for “room and board”, but except for one lady it’s really hard to say what they really do there. The house is a dirty shack, with plywood walls separating rooms, hair and dead bug laying on the shower floor in the bathroom, a pile of dirty dishes sitting in the sink, everything grimy and sticky to touch. Mattresses in the bedroom were still wrapped in plastic, I didn’t feel comfortable using their sheets, so I slept in my own sleeping bag. Expedia also mentioned free breakfast but there was no breakfast. And the cost was high, I expected much higher quality for $65 a night. I could stay in a nice motel for this price. I really don’t recommend this place and I would never stay there again, even if someone paid me.

Roach-infested Fire Hazard
There were roaches. Then, you couldn’t use the light switches because they had probably illegally remodeled and bypassed the house’s original floor plan by erecting plywood walls to make “bedrooms.” They ignored the fire code by plugging extension cords into other extension cords. Also, the smoke detectors were either removed or didn’t have batteries.

I would have brought food for the pets.
I really enjoyed the wild hosts. They really come alive at night. I met up with the cat right before leaving and you’d barely recognize it since it looks like skin and bones during the day. At night, it resembles a fat cat without loose skin or rolls. Wish I would have known that there were going to be chickens around. I would have brought food. You also need change for the laundry machines. The place was nice and cozy. I kept to myself. It was in good condition when I arrived. I would have used new mops or t shirts in each room for mopping.

Hen and Kitty house
Best staff included two cats and over eight chickens. They decorated the entry and greeted right away. You wouldn’t recognize them at night. Don’t forget to bring them brand new and sealed food.

I made a reservation for May 4 for one night and when I arrived, they told me the room was not available and I could not stay there. I need a credit for this reservation. Please advise.

Great value! I got my own room and the basics. I was able to get in despite arriving later than planned thanks to a helpful on site manager. It's about 25 minutes from Indian Wells if you're considering it for the tennis tournament. Bathrooms are shared but clean and I was happy with the overall experience. Recommend earplugs if you're a light sleeper (I had a snorer next door and the private rooms are not noise proof due to incomplete walls).
