    Review Summary

    The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.

    Reviews of the senior living facility have been mixed, with some residents and visitors expressing satisfaction while others have raised concerns. Positive comments highlight the caring staff, the convenience of amenities such as parking and laundry facilities, and the security features like alarm buttons in showers. The facility's location and the provision of activities like bingo and shopping bus services were also appreciated.

    However, several reviews pointed out significant issues. Concerns include poor management, with frequent changes in property managers and unprofessional behavior from staff towards residents and their families. There were reports of maintenance problems not being addressed in a timely manner, and the building's security was questioned due to unauthorized access by non-residents. Some reviewers also mentioned the facility's policy on smoking was not enforced, leading to discomfort for non-smoking residents.

    Other criticisms focused on the physical aspects of the apartments and the building. Some found the apartments small, old, and dated, while others were concerned about high temperatures in certain apartments that couldn't be adjusted. The building's age and the congested area were also mentioned as drawbacks.

    Despite these issues, some residents have had positive experiences, noting the helpfulness of certain staff members and the cleanliness of the facility. The community's activities and amenities, such as a library, TV area, and free laundry, were highlights for some.

    Overall, the reviews suggest that while the Senior Suites of Central Station has potential and offers several appreciated features, there are significant areas for improvement, particularly in management, maintenance, and enforcing policies for the well-being of its residents.
