I would highly recommend this place

The food is very good. We eat a lot of chicken which I believe almost everybody's getting tired of but okay. For just being there for I think 4 months, it's very nice, very nice. Everybody's cool. I don't think my wife and I couldn't move to a better place. everyone out here seems like family and with a great stab and just a great atmosphere,

Wonderful

My brother is the one who is the new resident! I give the whole experience a 5. Excellent made the decision soooo easy for my brother to move in! I would recommend, they were very helpful in every way. The tour was helpful in the decision making and office personnel made my brother feel at ease and safe there. We did some research and Thornton place was the one!
