Another reviewer found the menu appealing. Private rooms are described as spacious and apartment-like, though adjoining rooms share a bathroom. Reviewers also describe the campus as clean and well maintained, with outdoor garden areas and a layout that allows residents to move safely within the compound.

    Activities include games, crafts, music, social opportunities, and scenic drives. Reviewers also mention visiting musicians and a community cat that residents enjoy.
