Pricing feels high for value
Multiple reviewers say costs have increased and may feel high for what they receive.
Some reviews directly call out pricing concerns, including increases in monthly cost and criticism that the overall value doesn’t match the price. Others echo the theme by describing the community as expensive and pairing that concern with complaints about delays and staffing. At the same time, many other reviews still describe good experiences, so the cost/value concern is not universal.
caveat7 reviews mention this
Staffing shortages affect timing
Some residents report staffing shortages that lead to long waits for meals and assistance.
A recurring concern is that staffing is short at times, which reviewers say makes it difficult to reach staff and affects wait times. Several reviews mention long delays for meal delivery and for call-button assistance, and one describes dinner taking much longer during staffing shortages. Other reviews say staffing is improving, but the timing issue is still mentioned often enough to stand out.
