the building architecture both inside and out impressed me. the staff members i encountered were friendly and helpful. the food i ate there was really good. i especially liked the dog bowls in the room. there was also a blanket and a treat box with a tennis ball and treats.

i found the dining room carpet to be worn. it was also rucked up. the decor looked like it needed some attention. i noticed that some seating was severely stained. the main stair carpet was threadbare on step edges. there was also a lot of dust on the main ceiling light.
