Residents and their families say:

This community, known for its cleanliness and comfort, receives generally favorable reviews from visitors and family members of residents. Many reviewers commented on the cleanliness and organized nature of the facility, appreciating how the staff keeps the surroundings well-maintained, from the clean dining areas where residents eat and socialize while maintaining social distance, to the well-kept front yard adorned with flowers. The interactions between the residents and staff were seen as positive, with staff members being described as nice, knowledgeable, and attentive. Remarkably, the recent renovations and management changes have only improved the facility's appearances and services, making it highly praised for its cleanliness, renovated rooms, and the care and attention provided by the staff.

However, there were some concerns raised by visitors and family members. A few reviewers noted the building's location on a busy street, and one pointed out that the facility seemed understaffed. The rooms were described by some as smaller than expected, and the level of activities and resident engagement was a concern for others, as they observed limited mobility among the residents and not much ongoing activity. Despite this, the staff's efforts to accommodate residents, from meal service that caters to special diets to the provision of physical therapy and personal care like pedicures, were well-acknowledged. Additionally, the food quality was mentioned positively, though one reviewer suggested it could be slightly improved.

In summary, while admiration for the staff's friendliness, the facility's cleanliness, and the comprehensive care provided is prevalent, there are voiced needs for more staff and concerns regarding resident engagement and the size of the rooms. However, the positives seem to outweigh the negatives for many, with specific praise for the facility's approach to safety, cleanliness, and resident care, making it a commendable option for those seeking assisted living services.
