Home-like atmosphere and cleanliness

Cost and staffing are recurring concerns
Some reviews say the pricing feels high and that staffing coverage can be limited.
A reviewer directly calls out that the community is too expensive and notes a concern about not enough help or caregivers on the floor. Another review mentions a situation where an appointment was missed because a group was going to an activity, which hints at constraints in coverage. While many others are positive about care, these comments are clear exceptions related to cost and staffing capacity.
