Key Review Excerpts

This place is nasty they are rude mean to the residents they would not answer the call light and my mom had to go to the bathroom so she tried to get up on her own and fell and broke her hip

Daughter of resident · 2024☆☆☆☆

Every time i step in this horrible building it reeks of pee and the building is decrepit falling apart around the people inside, and last i heard they haven’t had functioning hot water for over a month

Visitor · 2026☆☆☆☆

It took them 24hrs to get my foot x-rayed when I injured it. I'm diabetic, and have 3 broken bones in my foot. 2 weeks, no podiatrist appointment until I took matters in my own hands.
