Horrible place, my brother stays there because we can’t find anywhere else to take him with his condition. His clothes and personal belongings are always coming up missing. He just had a nice expensive Wahl jacket just come up missing and staff doesn’t know what happened to it. Totally disappointed with this place!!!!
