Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has generally received positive feedback from residents and their family members, highlighting various aspects ranging from the affordability and quality of the apartments to the range of activities and amenities available. Many reviews praised the friendly staff, clean and organized environment, and the sense of community fostered among residents. The large and well-maintained outdoor spaces, the variety of meal options, and the accessibility to local shops and activities were recurrent positives. Additionally, the provision of transportation services, even though there were some issues with availability, was considered an important feature. The community's ability to cater to independent living while providing a family-oriented atmosphere was particularly appreciated.
However, some concerns were raised regarding the quality and temperature of the food served, with multiple mentions of the dining experience not meeting expectations. There were also comments on the higher-than-anticipated rental increases, leading to financial strain for some residents. Furthermore, problems with maintenance—specifically regarding elevators, washing machines, and the bus service—were noted. A few reviewers highlighted the lack of care required for their specific needs and inefficiencies in certain staff interactions and the overall management. Despite these issues, many would recommend this community, attributing their satisfaction mainly to its location, facilities, and the welcoming staff and residents.
