Would highly recommend

When we toured Symphony the gal who is in charge was very nice and did a good job answering all of our questions and she was very personable. The community at the time was not opened yet so it had this new smell to it and everything was just unbelievable. All the furnishings were new, it was well decorated and very open and bright feeling. Our loved one has a companion suite which they like and it financial works out best for us. The dining service is good, but the quality of the meals could use a little improvement, they are not the best.

I'm glad we chose it. It has helped our family, and I'm well pleased overall.

It's friendly. Overall it's a really good place. Sometimes it depends on who's working the shift. But most of the time it's excellent. It's nice and clean. They have some events sometimes, although that's limited due to Covid. They used to have a Wine Wednesday. I just make sure I go and visit her every day. Overall it's a good place. It's helped her, and it's helped us.
