Meal and transportation changes worry some
A few reviews express concern about changes to meals and transportation after new ownership.
One review says the dining and game room were shut down, while another says new ownership later resulted in meals and transportation being taken away. Another review describes a rent increase coupled with fewer meal inclusions, which they experienced as a bait-and-switch. These comments focus less on day-to-day service and more on how the community’s offerings have changed over time.
