Food quality draws complaints
Food is a frequent source of frustration, with concerns about temperature and timing.
Residents and families repeatedly describe meals as cold, delayed, or not meeting expectations, including complaints about hunger when items are left off trays. Several reviews also mention diabetes-related diet concerns or difficulty getting appropriate substitutions. A smaller number of reviewers mention that the food was acceptable or that residents liked it, but the overall pattern of comments about meal quality is negative.

Staff communication and call response
Call light response and follow-through are described as inconsistent.
A recurring concern in reviews is difficulty getting timely help—especially when families describe long waits for call lights or unanswered phone calls. Some reviewers connect these gaps to staffing being short, which they say can lead to delayed attention and missed follow-up. On the positive side, other reviews describe staff answering quickly and keeping families informed, but those experiences are not consistent across reviews.

Cleanliness and pest issues
Cleanliness concerns include reports of pests and rooms not being consistently maintained.
Multiple reviews raise worries about cleanliness, including reports of roaches or other pest activity and complaints about odors. There are also mentions of housekeeping inconsistencies, such as rooms or bathrooms not staying clean. A few reviewers describe the facility as clean and odor-free, but the negative cleanliness accounts appear often enough to be a recurring theme.
