Overall Review of Princeton Place

caveat

Cleaning and pest issues are common

Many residents describe the facility as unclean and plagued by pests.

A recurring concern in reviews is that the building feels dirty or poorly maintained, with complaints about stained floors and bad odors. Several reviewers mention visible insects such as roaches, ants, spiders, or cockroaches. A few reviews also connect these conditions to neglect in day-to-day care and cleanliness routines.

caveat

Belongings go missing frequently

Residents and families frequently report missing or stolen personal items.

Multiple reviews describe belongings such as clothing, bedding, remotes, chargers, and other personal items going missing. Some reviewers say they had to replace items repeatedly, even after adding identifying information. Several accounts also describe difficulty recovering belongings or getting help when they reported the problem.

caveat

Call light and communication problems

Residents describe delays reaching help and difficulty getting clear answers.

Reviews repeatedly mention problems with getting assistance, including call-light systems that are hard to reach or that do not bring timely help. Some reviewers also say the staff does not answer phones or delays responding after repeated calls. In addition, a number of accounts describe inconsistent information and poor communication with families.

caveat

Care feels inconsistent to reviewers

Many reviewers express concern that basic care needs were missed.

A common thread is that some residents experienced outcomes described as preventable or linked to missed or delayed care, including medication issues, missed appointments, and unattended situations. Several reviews describe inadequate monitoring and lack of timely assistance during incidents. While a smaller number of reviews are more positive about care and communication, negative accounts are detailed enough to stand out.
