    Review Summary

    The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.

    Reviews highlight a mix of experiences at this senior living community. Many appreciate the good room sizes, medium price range, and staff ratios. The food receives praise for its quality and efforts to accommodate dietary restrictions. Community spaces, including hallways and tables, are noted for their cleanliness, though some feel resident rooms could receive more attention. The staff culture is described as loving, and the assisted living side is viewed as more sophisticated than the memory care side.

    However, concerns are raised about staff turnover, and some reviewers express dissatisfaction with the level of care and communication, particularly in the memory care unit. Issues such as unreported falls, inadequate checks on residents, and poor management responses are mentioned. The facility's cleanliness is questioned by some, with reports of dead cockroaches in rooms. Despite these concerns, the facility is described as beautiful, new, and inviting, with friendly staff and nice amenities. The cost is a concern for some, with annual rate increases and the need for residents to furnish their own rooms noted.

    Overall, opinions vary widely, with some recommending the community for its care and amenities, while others advise caution based on their experiences. The facility's newness is both a draw and a concern, with its potential for growth and improvement acknowledged.
