Facility cleanliness is a mixed signal
Cleanliness is praised by some reviewers, but a recurring concern appears in other reviews.
Several reviews say the building is clean and comfortable, and some describe a fresh-smelling environment. Others report dirty conditions and concerns about inadequate daily care, including references to hygiene and bedding. Because both perspectives show up in the comments, cleanliness appears inconsistent across experiences.

Call response and staffing shortages draw criticism
Some reviews describe long waits, missed follow-through, and staffing-related care gaps.
A number of negative reviews mention problems with call button response, delays in care, or times when residents werenât receiving needed assistance. Several commenters also attribute care issues to being short-staffed, and some describe follow-through problems with medication timing, bathing, or scheduled PT/OT. These concerns stand in contrast to the many positive reviews, so itâs important to consider that experiences vary.
