I found the facility to be very well taken care of, the area was very clean, it even smelled clean. The food was pretty good, I will admit that it is a little bit limited, but the quality is decent. The staff was very polite and helpful, my grandfather and everyone else seem to get along with them pretty well. I found that there were actually many activities that a person could take part in, from the assorted board games, television, and art projects, even though for the most part we just sat around and talked. All in all I found the facility to be very enjoyable and could see my self retiring there if I had to, the ony real issues I had was that the dining options were small, and that it seemed very warm inside, but those issues are most likely due to health issues that the residents are dealing with. The fact is I enjoyed my visit and will be returning to visit again soon.
