Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received praise from several reviewers for its excellent staff, welcoming atmosphere, and the high level of care provided to residents. Many commend the kindness, compassion, and professionalism of the staff, highlighting their attentive and personalized approach to resident care. The facility's layout and cleanliness are also frequently mentioned, with specific appreciation for the homey atmosphere, well-maintained gardens, and various amenities such as dining areas and outdoor patios that encourage resident interaction and socialization. The community's ability to accommodate residents with different needs in a single facility has been particularly valued by families, allowing loved ones to stay together.
However, some challenges were noted, including issues with staffing and communication which seem to have been exacerbated by the high cost of living in the area and the COVID-19 pandemic. A few reviewers expressed concerns about occasional dissatisfaction with the food quality and variety, and one specific negative point mentioned by more than one reviewer was the unavailability of Spanish language TV channels for residents. Despite these issues, the overall sentiment remains positive, with many reviewers expressing deep gratitude for the support and care their family members have received and recommending the community to others looking for assisted living options.
