2.3 / 5.0

This community is a decent place. We didn't have many problems with the community. The communication could have been better; however this might have been effected due to the pandemic. I would recommend this community to others.

4.4 / 5.0

The staff members would be higher than 5 stars they are so friendly. We were just amazed in the begi...

4 / 5.0

It's a good environment for independent living. The residents get the feeling of living in an apartment and being independent. The studio is small, but it's neat and clean. It's an enjoyable place with plenty of activities.
