I wouldn't know. I showed up late due to traffic for my first meeting with Molly, the sales representative. I apologized but she refused to see me (I could hear her around the corner) or provide me with any information. I was basically kicked out. Very strange and hostile. Makes me wonder how they treat actual residents and family.

GSE is well kept and is dedicated to serving the local community. A visit is needed, because words cant capture the feel and caring environment.
