The front desk staff member was rude and unwelcoming. He didn't seem interested in his job and was constantly on his phone, which created a poor first impression. I also found communication with him to be difficult due to his limited English communication skills, making it harder to ask questions and get assistance. Fortunately, the rest of the staff were friendly, caring, and professional, making the overall experience much better.

FIRST DAY OBSERVATION: It’s an old structure but looks bright, clean and very decent lobby/ interior and no smell. 4th floor is very decent and doesn’t smell MOST IMPORTANT!! SMALL PARKING LOT - but used by both visitors and staff - that makes it challenging. STAFF are helpful/ friendly - very important too!! STREET PARKING is very limited Close to main road/ Highway

I was in Mexico and had an experience on a catamaran I was in water unconscious. My insurance back to Canada would not allow me to return without nurse escort. I was nervous about not traveling with my husband I had to travel with nurse instead our trip back to Canada. I really did not have to be so nervous my nurse Natalie was professional and personal able and really relaxed me even though our trip back had a few hiccups along the way..I would highly recommend Parkview your nurse was great++. Thank you so much for getting me back to Canada safely...❤️❤️❤️🫂
