    Warm staff; good independent living

    I live in a roomy one-bedroom apartment and have been impressed by the warm, caring staff, quick-introducing nurses, clean well-maintained building, active activities program (trips, Wii league, yoga, music), and useful amenities/transportation - good value compared with other local options. The café, salon, podiatry, shuttle and prompt maintenance make independent living pleasant. Downsides: meals can be inconsistent, admissions/management communication has been spotty (waitlists, billing and move-in mixups), occasional understaffing and slower aide response, and you must move again to access assisted living. There are scattered reports of administrative errors and lost items, so watch paperwork and valuables. Overall positive for independent living but be cautious about transitions and admissions.
