The only good thing about the place is the dining room and the activity room. Top notch. Just not the rest of the place. They shove you in like sardines one on top of the other. I didn't get full use of my own bed. That's why I left. Some of the residents are extremely rude. Especially the ones in my room. You got no darkness to sleep in. Do your research before coming. Those pictures are misleading.
