★★★★★
CriticalGood place but room for improvement.
It's nice and clean and most of the staff is wonderful, especially the ladies at the front desk and the gentleman who transport the residents to appointments. The wellness center is not the best. There have been frequent mix ups with medication or medication running out without being refilled in time. We also use outside doctors. The food is mediocre, at best and there are not enough healthy or vegetarian options.
★★★★★
PositiveWould highly recommend
Above average apartment size for the rate. Level of care costs similar to other facilities. Care provided by Medical and non-medical aides is great. All Staff and residents are genuinely friendly and helpful. A wide variety of daily activities to lure a recluse back to life. Beautiful facility, inside and out. Extremely pleasant outside space, wooded away from traffic. Menu is large and changes frequently. I would highly recommend this facility! Our family members were at the facility at different times and all of…

Beautiful place, lots of activities, decent food, friendly staff and Princeton is such a great area. The wellness center took a long time to get my mom's medication right. I would definitely recommend going to outside doctors. The administrative staff is friendly but they do not follow through on issues of being overcharged. You really have to stay on top of them and make sure everything is done properly.

I need to place my husband in an assisted living facility as a respite stay as I went away on business. He recently just had a knee replacement and I could not leave him alone, he needed around-the-clock care. The administrative staff went above and beyond to make sure all of my needs were answered and that my husband would be in the best hands he came in for a 4-week respite and I must say he had absolutely zero complaints, as a younger man I was a little nervous please and come in and assisted living even if it w…
