It’s a nice place. I have spent lots of time there as three of my grandparents/great-grandparent have lived there. It definitely needs some updates/ renovation. It has never been updated cosmetically from what I can see. My great grandmother was one of the very first residents, and my grandfather lives there now. The staff is good from what I can tell and have experienced
