Sunrise of Grosse Pointe Woods
5.0

My loved one was previously a resident at Sunrise of Grosse Pointe Woods and everything was great for her at this facility! The cleanliness and friendliness were great. The staff, care services, food and activities were great. The value for cost was also great, in comparison to other facilities. Overall, it was a great experience. I would highly recommend Sunrise of Grosse Pointe Woods to others.
