"Overall I like that it is a village has a lot to do. I typically do a business trip, it's nice to relax later on the golf course. I've been staying at the Villa's II for many years, always enjoyed my stay. I did not like that the balcony walls were dirty looked like spit not bird poo..."

RESET Hotel Joshua Tree National Park, Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy

10/10 Excellent
"We enjoyed the patio views, and the pristine, minimal, and functional interior. The coffee was good according to my partner. I was sad to find no tea and it was difficult to get over my partner and out of bed for late night bathroom runs. I managed to use the exposed bed frame to inch my way along the wall. However, that balancing act was difficult in the dark. In general not for seniors unless they are agile."
