    Visitors and residents have shared a variety of experiences at The Chelsea at Fanwood, highlighting both positive aspects and areas for improvement. Many commend the friendly and welcoming staff, noting their kindness and professionalism. The facility is praised for its spacious and clean rooms, with some enjoying views of the park.
