Key Review Excerpts

My brother lived there for a while. I never felt like I was given honest answers. My brother was not mistreated, but he did feel that Debbie Bixby didn’t like him.

Long-term resident's family · 2020☆☆☆☆

Absolutely terrible workers!! They need to learn to shovel the sidewalks as they are being paid to do.
