My father stayed at Carolina Gardens at Rock Hill, and it was not good. It's chaotic. There were a lot of folks that were not too good. The food was good, and he ate it. His room was pretty small, but they did not clean it like they should. It smelled like urine all the time. He was supposed to go in to enhanced memory care, but there were some issues. He wasn't even there for a week. The maintenance guy was great, but cleanliness was a 2.

It is really good. It is really clean and everything. I have no problem by real professionals who do a really good job. It has a good sized room that is good and clean. They come up and take care of everything, and they are doing really well. The staff is doing a wonderful job too, and I have no complaints. They have all kind of activities and all kinds of stuff. They have Bingo, Backgammon, and Cornhole games. Someone comes in to do their nails once a week. My mother tells us the food is really good, and she likes it. The cleanliness and the way the staff does everything really quickly impressed me the most.

We just had an experience with it before with a family member and it has proven to be exactly what it said. We were pleased with the accommodation as well as the facility's cleanliness. The staff was very good and very knowledgeable there. I'm very satisfied with them.

My grandmother is here. Her room is not large, but it's big enough for her, and she likes it. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Carolina Gardens at Rock Hill was nice, but it was too far away. The gentleman was very pleasant, and the rooms appeared nice. The atmosphere seemed bleak, and we didn't see interactions between the staff and the people.
