What reviewers praise
  • Staff & care — Staff and management are frequently described as professional, attentive, and doing their best to accommodate residents.
  • Value & pricing — Reviewers note it serves as an affordable independent living option for low income seniors.
  • Activities — Residents mention amenities like horseshoes, checkers, and bean bag games as enjoyable community features.
  • Atmosphere & grounds — The studio apartments themselves are described as cute and appealing inside despite building age.
Worth asking about
  • Cleanliness & maintenance — One reviewer reported the elevator is frequently out of service, which is worth confirming on a tour.
  • Safety — A reviewer described theft from a vehicle parked nearby and mentioned transients around the area, so ask about parking safety and building security.
  • Financial transparency — A prospective renter noted a roughly one year waitlist and rent that leaves very little income for a fixed-income senior, so clarify current wait times and how rent compares to resident income.
