If you’re reading this review, do yourself a favour and don’t send your loved ones to this facility. The staff and management are nothing short of disgusting.

The best aged care facility I've ever lived at!. The second best place to spend your final days. The best would be hedonism island but old Ethel is going to outlive me so that ain't happening.
