The staff was friendly and answered all of my questions. The facility has the basic amenities that we are looking for and it is close to where we live. The rooms seem a bit small.

It was great tour and very nice staffs. Even without appointment, [name removed] still took her time to give me an entire facility tour. Thank you. I like good size bedroom, clean hallway, nice entertainment, excersise, & dining rooms. Good variety daily activities. Room & Level care 1-6 prices are quite high though. I was hoping cheaper prices if facility is close to East San Diego area.

We took a virtual tour and were very excited to see all that this community has to offer. [name removed] was extremely kind and I can imagine the residents love her. It feels very supportive for those who have left their homes. The services and activities are amazing, a very gentle place to transition to. Thank you!
