I was a patient here (as an adolescent) and was treated for depression. It was a decent stay. The nurses were extremely kind, and the therapists and other staff were mostly kind. They do have a pretty big problem with communicating things to their patients, however. Long story short, I wasn't explained anything for a while. I kept asking the staff what the schedule was and they couldn't give me a clear answer. I was finally given a schedule on the 3rd day, which I should've been given on the 1st day. I still don't understand why the staff couldn't help me for so long.
Overall, they did a great job with watching the patients and making sure nothing bad happened, and they never pressured any of us to come to the group therapy sessions when we didn't feel up to it, which I hugely appreciated.
Cleanliness was... decent. When I walked into my room the first thing I noticed was the huge amount of innapropriate writings on the walls, bedframes, bookshelves, and mirror lol, which was fine, i didn't really care. The bathroom area was pretty gross, but it was livable.
Honestly, I would recommend this hospital to anyone who has been to a mental hospital already and knows what to expect somewhat.
