        Overall

        I give this bussines 0 stars because it is one of the worst places in the world to leave your loved ones. I know from personal experience because I have lived there before and it is hell hole. Not to mention that most of the staff that they hire are dumber than the people who they are suppose to take care of. Plus all of them are pretty much horrid people who will not give them any basic human dignity or respect that they all deserve.
