- Track record — Over more than 11 years of operation, this small 6-bed home has accumulated 2 Type A citations and 11 Type B (administrative, paperwork-level) citations, alongside 6 unsubstantiated complaint allegations and no substantiated ones.
- Recent 3 years — The five most recent dated inspections, spanning 2022 through April 2026, show zero Type A or Type B citations and no complaint investigations, indicating the earlier Type A findings predate this stronger recent stretch.
- Operating tenure — More than 11 years of licensed operation gives this record real depth, and the trajectory from earlier findings to a clean recent period is a meaningful signal of consistency.
- Complaints — Both complaint investigations on record date to a single day in February 2022, and neither resulted in a substantiated allegation, consistent with the recent clean inspection history.
