    Clean facility, helpful staff, mixed

    I toured this senior living community and was impressed by the bright, very clean building, pleasant outdoor areas and nicely laid-out apartments (spacious two-bed/one-bed options, freshly painted though not furnished). The staff were generally friendly, caring and helpful - the Community Resources team stood out - but activity levels and turnout vary widely, nursing/management practices can be inconsistent or intrusive, and food and value get mixed reviews. Overall I liked the facility and staff, but I'd recommend verifying nursing policies, activity frequency and costs before deciding.
