Key Review Excerpts
“At Golden Sands there is one floor with about 40 residents surrounding an atrium. If you miss the door to your apartment you'll eventually come back to it because it's only one floor.”
“Management lies and doesn’t care about the residents. They are never available to answer questions and will never return a phone call as promised.”
“Clean, with friendly aides, these are good senior assisted apartments”
