    Bright modern community with caveats

    I toured this bright, modern community and was impressed - spotless rooms, great natural light, underground parking, chef-driven meals, active social calendar, and many caring, accommodating staff who went out of their way. Activities, dining, and the contemporary, upbeat vibe felt nothing like an "old folks" home. My caveats: leadership and staff turnover, inconsistent communication, occasional slow response to call buttons, no 24-hour nursing, limited Sunday transportation, and it's on the pricey side. Overall I felt good about the place and would recommend it - just be clear about medical coverage, transportation, and leadership stability before committing.
