Dining is hit or miss
Food quality and meal service are inconsistent across reviews.
Some residents and families praise specific meals and say the food tastes good, including dishes like parmesan chicken with pasta. Others describe recurring problems with dinner service, such as meals arriving cold or being poorly prepared, with desserts running out. A few reviewers suggest trying a meal before committing, and they connect dining frustrations to resident disappointment and complaints.

Communication gaps drive frustration
Reviews frequently call out difficulties getting timely responses.
Several reviewers report that the community does not respond to calls or emails, even when families are trying to address care needs or coordinate moves between levels of support. A few posts describe problems with how phone lines and HR requests are handled, including references to automated or non-human responses. In addition to the lack of replies, some reviewers tie the communication breakdown to delays in getting residents the help they need.
caveat6 reviews mention this
Care quality concerns are serious
Multiple reviews describe inadequate care and missed support needs.
Some reviewers say they did not see the level of care they expected, including problems with bathing, toileting, laundry, and cleaning timelines. A number of posts focused on memory care describe residents not being taken to meals and residents appearing unkempt, with one account mentioning symptoms that were not identified and escalated in time. Other reviewers describe medication-related issues and staffing being short, along with unanswered messages when problems were reported.
caveat4 reviews mention this
Costs rise and terms feel strict
Several families mention rent increases and strict financial terms.
Some reviewers describe rent going up over time and mention additional charges tied to apartment occupancy when ownership changed. Others highlight meal-related purchasing requirements, connecting ongoing costs to day-to-day experience. At least one review also disputes the refund amount after a short stay, describing a deposit and first-month and meal allowance structure that did not feel fair once care could not be continued.
