I have in a Serviced Apt

Friendly, knowledgeable staff
4 / 5 ★Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Always clean. Happy atmosphere amongst other residents.
Four Star
4 / 5 ★Although I am happy enough here at Rowena Jackson with the considerable cost cutting especially for those who are in townhouses (independent) have found that our enjoyment, activities etc has slipped.
Able to come and go on my own free will
4 / 5 ★Able to come and go on my own free will. Gardens are kept looking good and lawns tidy.
Review for above
4 / 5 ★Believe that Head Office has too much control over things that are more local - every village will vary with likes and dislikes as the residents will have very different likes and interests.
Caring administrative Staff
4 / 5 ★Caring administrative Staff
Facility Response:

Four Stars
4 / 5 ★A number of recent changes with food and housie prize has been changed. (eds.) Not enough car parks or scooter parks. Nursing good. Good van trips.
