My grandma has lived at Capital Place for at least 7 years. The staff has always been welcoming and helpful.
Grandma has made many friends and enjoys many of their activities.
They have recently added an anytime dining menu - so now there are about 12 choices for lunch and dinner and also 24 hour concierge services. It was good before the changes, now it is top notch !
