Cleanliness is mixed
Cleanliness feedback varies from positive to concerning.
Some visitors say the facility is clean when they are there, while others report strong negative experiences tied to odors and messes. Reviews include descriptions of urine in hallways and filthy rooms, alongside a separate complaint that the building felt dirty and old. A different reviewer says their loved one was often clean and appeared happy, which is at odds with the more severe cleanliness concerns.

Family communication can be tough
Several families report problems connecting with loved ones.
Some reviews focus on difficulty reaching residents, including concerns about phone access and being cut off from communication. Another review describes a situation where a family member was told they could not visit, despite being an advocate for their loved one. On the positive side, at least one family describes frequent care-team check-ins and virtual visits, suggesting that communication experiences may depend on the situation.

Coverage and help vary by need
Residents may not always receive enough hands-on help.
A reviewer describes having concerns about coverage, saying there are not enough aides on duty to deliver the quality of care residents deserve. Another family member reports that help with meals was sometimes inconsistent, even though the resident was sometimes clean and settled when family visited more often. Together, these comments suggest care intensity may fluctuate depending on staffing and timing.
