What do you like most about living here?
The other resident, period!!
Are there enough caregivers to handle the residents' needs, especially during emergencies?
No
Are the common areas pleasant and comfortable for socializing or relaxing?
Yes
How do you feel about the level of social interaction available with other residents?
Could and should be a LOT better
How was the units offered in this community?
Poorly
Do you feel safe living in this community?
Yes
How well do you think the community handles emergencies or unexpected events?
WAY TOO SLOW. Take for instance the number of residents locked out because of the FOB problem. Who was here to let them in and WHO IS HERE to quickly and efficiently fix new FOB problems? For sure not the current manager, she's nowhere to be found and has left no positive/constructive instructions to quickly and efficiently handle this situation. All we got was the run around as to which office "fixes" the FOB problem, only to find out that no one does, so we are left without a way in from the parking garage. That falls on the Owners and the worthless Manager.
How would you rate the quality and variety of the meals? (1-5)
1
Are special diets handled well?
No
Is the dining schedule flexible enough to meet your preferences?
No
Are there any hidden fees or unexpected charges?
Look at all the "fees" tacked onto each month's rent!!! Those should be included is as part of the Base rental fee. About the same as used and new car dealers adding on "fees" after you purchase a car. Same rational, gouge the resident.
Would you recommend this community to others looking for senior living options?
Absolutely not, and have told others to look elsewhere which the did.
Is there anything you wish you knew before moving in?
Managements bait-n-switch POLICY, that they can't provide a copy of, to this day.
