Went here on June 27. Around 3. Brought my son there to see his aunt. The staff were cleaning when I went in. The residents seem happy. The workers on the other hand were very rude especially the girl at the front desk The Workers says "how old are you ?I'm like 22. Oh thought you were younger. Who are you seeing. Told the name. Okay what room number is she in. I dont know this is my first time being here. She was very rude. And made my son and I very uncomfortable just by her Attitude. The retirement home was very clean. But then we were leaving, and the front desk says sign your name. Seem rude. But the psw and workers were nice and smiling to us. So please have better staff. That don't make you feel uncomfortable
