    Amenities are non-existent, some of the staff is excellent others are beyond intolerable, the facility is grossly outdated, it is very understaffed, and the staff that is bad seems to have forgotten that they are employees behave instead like dictators, the majority of the food is inedible, the services they provide are subpar at best and the price is astronomical
