Everyone has been very responsive to questions or situations. I am always kept advised about my mom and what is going on. I highly recommend The Hampshire to others looking.

Critical

We just moved in during [date removed], We were not told of the form do request maintenance services so went 2+ months without them. It appears to be understaffed. We are now very concerned as they have stopped providing and service we contracted to pay for without a reduction in rent. Common areas don't seem to be cleaned regularly. Staff appear to be trying their best.

I have resided here for 3 months. The staff is wonderful. Love them all. The manager is super nice but makes sure all rules are kept for the safety of all.
