"Good Price, and we get capital gain..."

Good price, and we get capital gain. Always company, if wanted. Able to go away, and its safe. Great security....Read more

Pros

Good price, and we get capital gain. Always company, if wanted. Able to go away, and its safe. Great security.

Cons

If manager is unfriendly (we now have a good manager), feel 'imprisoned'. Some negative, moaning individuals spoil it. Some make grandchildren fell unwanted when they visit.

Suggestions to Management or General Comment

We feel frustrated here, because the lovely village centre has no acoustics. It is so hard to hear each other, plus most have hearing loss. We feel it is cost cutting.
