Food quality draws mixed reactions
Reviews split between families who liked the food and others who did not.
A few reviewers said residents loved the food or that meals were better than expected. Others described the food as horrible, bland, or poorly prepared, including comments about meals being cold and lacking seasoning. This shows up as a consistent point of contrast across reviews.

Rehab therapy receives complaints
Rehabilitation experience ranges from positive to sharply critical.

But other reviewers say physical therapy was inadequate or a “joke,” and they describe little rehab being provided. One review also frames the rehab experience as putting a resident at risk after a fall.
