Several families say their loved ones are happy, thriving, and well cared for, while some residents report enjoying the food, activities, staff, and overall experience. However, numerous negative reviews raise serious concerns, particularly about memory care. Allegations include understaffing, inadequate training, poor supervision, neglect, failure to follow dietary and family instructions, unsafe activities, medication or care errors, and residents not receiving timely assistance. Some reviewers claim management failed to address complaints, cameras were not functioning, and conditions were worse when family members were absent. Others describe residents deteriorating, being left unattended, or experiencing rough or inadequate care. Several families also report major administrative and billing problems. These include unanswered calls and emails, unclear admission and discharge procedures, continued rent or care-level charges during hospitalization or after discharge, delayed refunds, unauthorized or disputed charges, and mishandling or disposal of belongings. One reviewer alleges that locks were changed and possessions discarded before the contractual notice period ended. Overall, the reviews portray a facility with appealing amenities and many caring employees, but potentially inconsistent care and management, especially in memory care.
