Pricing feels unclear and can rise
Multiple reviews raise concerns about high costs and unexpected charges.
A recurring concern is that the final monthly price can move well above the initial base amount through additional line-item charges. Reviews mention difficulty getting clear explanations of what is being billed and describe costs increasing quickly after move-in or for specific support needs. Even among otherwise positive experiences, families repeatedly flag cost as the main drawback and advise asking for itemization.
