The community has rooms in different types and publishes the cost for private accommodations, so people know what to expect, and the facility itself is well-kept and has comfortable and nicely decorated common areas, outdoor courtyards for relaxing, a chapel, and even a healing garden where people can spend quiet moments with loved ones.
