Strict covid protocols which is fantastic. Clean airy rooms .Practical living areas .
The staff are caring, attentive and are so helpful. The building is modern well laid out and very bright with lots of natural light with windows that have double glazing keeping outside noise out. Even the residents are happy and welcoming.
Staff are always pleasant and present warm and friend. My mother who lives there can be challenging at times but the staff somehow manage to keep their cool and treat her with love, care and dignity.
