I recently moved a gentleman into a beautiful apartment in San Francisco and the staff was wonderful. Everyone was so kind and welcoming, making it feel like a five-star hotel or casino. The place is very clean, neat and inviting, with plenty of activities for seniors to enjoy. It's the perfect place to live!
