The Bridge at Charleston in North Charleston, SC

4.6
I would say: The staff, from the management, to the desk, to the maintenance is wonderful and friendly and helpful. The head nurse is a treasure! I would also say it is expensive but about the same as comparable communities.

Benton House of West Ashley in Charleston, SC

3.5
I would say the staff is friendly and the private rooms are big comparatively. As with any place, changes take a bit of time and getting all shifts on the same page. Comparatively, they are still head and shoulders above a LOT of their competition.
