    Caring staff but small rooms

    I found the staff overwhelmingly caring and energetic - Jenitta and Mike Morris really stood out - they communicated well, went above and beyond, and created lots of activities and social connection. The facility is clean, home-like, and conveniently located with on-site services, but rooms are very small, dated, and lack bathroom storage. My concerns: high monthly cost with many extra fees, frequent staff turnover/understaffing, inconsistent meal quality, and some management and cleanliness lapses; a few staff were rude or bullying. I'd recommend this place for short stays or families who value compassionate, engaged staff and activities, but not if you need spacious rooms, consistent meals, or flawless management.
