This community has received mixed reviews from its residents and visitors.

Concerns were raised about the overall quality of care, with one reviewer describing it as "very bad," and others suggesting that while the staff tries, the care is not the best. The food quality received criticism for being "horrible," and there were comments about the community being short-staffed, which seems to affect the level of service. Some staff members were described as uncaring and rude, although this was not universally the case as other reviewers highlighted the presence of some very good and nice aides.
