CriticalI am a friend or relative of a current/past resident
I am very surprised by the recent 5 star reviews and wanted to share my experience with a family member who lived there for numerous years. * Rent increased about 10% each year * Everything is extra $ and I mean everything. Just make sure to ask for their rate sheet; * Food - the basics are included - hamburgers, hotdogs and fried stuff, but if you want anything other than that it is EXTRA $. Ask to review a few of their menus. * Cleanliness - should be more called a dusting; nothing is picked up or moved or scrubb…

You sign in and you have to go to the kiosk. The staff was warm, friendly, and helpful. Even our tour guide was great, Travis. We were able to see the di…

We toured First Colonial Inn, and we like that facility. It was very good. They had the common area and everything else. The people were very professional, and it was a very impressive facility for where it's located. It surprised me. It was enjoyable. It was clean and organized. The staff was personable and very professional. It's nice. The parking was adequate for several drivers. It's accessible as well. They have vehicles that could take you shopping. They also had washing machines. Plus, they ha…
