Location near medical area

Reviewers cite the location as convenient to the medical area.

Cleaning complaints in common areas

Some reviews report housekeeping gaps in shared areas.

At least one reviewer describes trash lingering in the lobby or entryway for several days and says common areas and entryways did not seem cleaned consistently. Another reviewer expresses dissatisfaction with the overall impression during a visit, including concerns that residents did not appear very happy. These comments are the minority but are specific enough to stand out against the more frequent cleanliness praise.
