2/10 Poor

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).

Not what we were expecting at all
I want to make it clear that the two of us have stayed in hostels multiple times - both separately and as a couple - so this review is taking into account the fact that Crashpod is not a hotel and isn't pretending to be one. That being said, the room that we booked was not at all what we were expecting. It was tiny, almost closet-sized, with a cot for a bed. You can see this from the pictures, but I still wanted to include it as context. The room was described as "private" but I would disagree with this description - the doorway had large gaps above and below the door, presumably for ventilation, which make it possible to see, hear, and smell the other guests. There were also no windows and the room was extremely hot and stuffy, despite the fact that it was only around 65 degrees outside. Also, other guests had clearly been smoking inside the hostel and the entire room reeked. I don't have a ton to say about the other facilities - the hostel itself was cute and seemed clean enough, the staff that we spoke with were friendly and somewhat helpful - because we ultimately decided not to stay. I gave the hostel a head's up that we were not satisfied with the room and I was not offered any kind of refund, which is why I feel the need to write this review. I hope others booking these private rooms understand what they are getting into before paying.

This is an extremely basic accommodation. Be prepared for cats, chickens, and "interesting" folks you share the space with. Travel light and keep your stuff with you. Slept with my stuff in my bunk with me. I would do it again though, just be aware before you go what to expect.

Not what I was expecting
Room was not what was expected. It was an internal room with no windows. bed was 2 single bed frames with a piece of wood on top and an extremely thin mattress on top. The only furniture in the room was a plastic chair with a small light on it. The door had gaps above and below it. Bathrooms looked clean but i chose not to stay and went elsewhere. Staff member was very unsure of which room i was in and wrote front door and room lock codes on a scrap of paper and gave it to me.
