Resident & family reviews
This place should be condemned...the rooms are outdated and dirty. There was so much dirt and dust in the air conditioning heating unit as if it's never been cleaned. The trash in my mothers room took a week to be emptied. The same sticky substance that had been on the floor when she got there was still there a week later...my shoes stuck to the floor each time I was there. The mirror was taped to the wall in the room, the closet door was hanging off it's hinges. I've never seen anything so bad in my life. The help "tried" but most just stood around socializing...the cleaning guy was in the same spot every night when I came in the building, stand with a mop and bucket at the front desk talking to the receptionist...and an hour or so after I left he was still there.
The food was unrecognizable and disgusting...such awful and cheap choices for the elderly and sick.....they would have made me ill.
I would NOT recommend this place to my enemies!!! STAY AWAY...oh, did I mention there are bars on the first floor windows so the low life can't get in the place???
