I visited. The least I liked was that it wasn't a one-level place, it has elevators but other than that, the amenities and everything they offer were great. They had maintenance out cleaning up when I was out there. It didn't feel like a nursing home. It feels like a little home. They had a workout room and a gathering room where people could go and practice their religion and the staff was pretty nice.

The rooms provide ample size, offer a number of electrical outlets and they are wired for Cable TV service. Generous portions of food are offered at each meal and provide a healthy and balanced diet. My interactions with staff members have been positive, as they have delivered helpful and great service.

What I like the best is the cleanliness of the property and the amenities that they offer. The rooms were excellent. The staff member who toured me around was extremely professional and considerate of me moving in as a new tenant. I was very impressed.

I moved in 4 months ago. The staff here is excellent. I'm extremely pleased with all of them. The whole facility is very cozy and very warm. My apartment is the largest suite that my daughter has seen in all of her tours and it is the least amount of money. The food is typical of this type of facility. It's certainly not gourmet dining, but it's certainly adequate and well-prepared. They have plenty of activities for those who wish to participate, like card games and guessing games.

It was easy to get to. I met the receptionist and the woman who gave us a tour, Rena. They were both very nice and pleasant. Rena particularly put you at ease. She talked to my dad and not me, which was important. The colors were bright. It was nice.

My mom moved in. The facility is very inviting, sunny, and clean. Everybody is very friendly and helpful. They have arts and crafts, movie nights, and lots of card games. The dining area is nice and very bright. The food is fine.

It was my favorite, and the one I wished my aunt had picked. However, the location was too far out in the city and far from her house. The rooms were spacious, the dining area was area was beautiful, and it seemed each meal was going to be something special just by the way it looked. The lady was incredibly nice to us. I have only wonderful things to say about them. They had a shuttle bus, computer, library, and beauty salon. They had a lot of activities.
