Unprofessional administration. False information given with sweeping statements. Noisey, tough sleeping conditions. Statements made about situations are not follwed through. Bad food. Staff over worked. Yet, professional. Rooms in below average condition. Heating and A/C terrible. Resident happiness 85% uncertain of anything else. I give it 0 points.
