"This is place is for more hardy individuals. Yes, you are in the middle of the desert. There are signs that ask you to limit your shower to 5 minutes. Yes, the bathrooms are shared and you do have to go outside if you want to use the bathroom for any reason. Yes, the cabins are very small and there is no place to put your luggage. (I kept my luggage in the car and would only brings the clothes that I needed in the cabin). It is a bonus that your car is right next to your door. Yes, the microwave is outside and shared. Yes, the bed is on the smaller side and feels and sounds like its covered with a thick plastic coverings. If you can't get over that, then don't book here. I enjoyed my time here depsite all of that because I was there to shower and sleep. My favorite memory is lying on the hammock and night and viewing all the STARS! I did have trouble with the comminication with who runs this place. I called the day before my check in and gave them my credit card info for incidentals and was reassured that the code to my place would be released by check in time (4pm) the following day. 4pm came and went and I heard nothing. I had trouble calling them as my call went through but they could not hear me. I had to go down the street to get Wifi. I did get a text messge giving me my lockbox code. However, they did not tell me WHERE the lock box was. Another guest showed me that the lockbox was located on your porch in a not so obvious area. "
