    Building a bit old but very caring staff and my mom was always busy with activities. Lots of entertainment in an open atrium and nice outdoor garden that was decorated so well with lights during Christmas. Mom was in a room with 4 but it made her never feel lonely. They decorate so much for every holiday so even with dementia she always knew what was going on.

    The facility is old, but the staff is caring, and they managed to keep Covid away from all the residents at the peak of the pandemic. My family received good care overall.
