    Beautiful architecture and nice interior. I really like glass art. Good shops, you can find everything in there. I like the underground connection so that you don’t have to cross streets to enter

    They looked after my wife very well. I can't say we want to go back but if we did we know we'd be looked after well. The food could do with a few changes. Theres a lot of older people there that would probably do better being fed old fashioned food like chops or rissoles! Just my opinion.

    Rehab is great. Physio great. An excellent place to get back on your feet. Be aware though that the rehab activity stops on weekends and the place function like a normal hospital so try to avoid Friday check ins.
