This community has received numerous positive comments regarding its cleanliness, the professionalism and friendliness of its staff, and the overall high standard of care provided to its residents. Many reviewers expressed satisfaction with the attentive, supportive, and compassionate care their loved ones received, noting the facility's cleanliness, the quality of the food, and the variety of activities and therapies available. The care teams were often praised for going above and beyond, creating a welcoming and warm environment not just for residents but also for visitors.

Families appreciated the peace of mind that came from knowing their loved ones were in a caring and safe environment, and several mentioned the beautiful and well-maintained facility, which added to the comfort of their stay.
However, some concerns were raised, including issues with understaffing and the need for better pay for the workers, reflecting on the strain it puts on both staff and the quality of care. One specific complaint related to a lack of personal attention from a designated doctor, pointing to a potential area for improvement in ensuring that all aspects of care and communication are thoroughly addressed. Another account mentioned dissatisfaction with the level of care and perceived deficiencies in staff competence and communication. Despite these issues, the more prevalent feedback reflects a strong community that cares deeply for its residents and strives to provide a nurturing and effective care environment.
