Many reviewers have praised the staff for their kindness, helpfulness, and encouragement, particularly in the areas of physical and occupational therapy. The environment is often described as lovely, with one reviewer noting the facility feels more like a hotel with great food and amenities.

    Several reviews highlighted the compassionate care provided to residents with severe conditions such as ALS, with staff going above and beyond to offer support and comfort. The facility's cleanliness and the quality of care, likened to family-like attention, have also been positively mentioned.
