Everybody was extremely nice and helpful in getting me in touch with the right resources to move my loved one into the place. I thought it was a good facility and I can not think of any improvements that need to be made.
I JUST REALLY LIKE THE PLACE THE FIRST VISIT TO IT THE STAFF WAS VERY HELPFUL AND MADE US FEEL LIKE WE WERE ALREADY AT HOME.
It has been wonderful. I don't go to many activities, but the ones I have been to are great and they have a lot provided. I have a one bedroom apartment and it is a little small, but the others I have seen are awesome size. I definitely recommend Annabelle on Main to others.
