My mom was placed here a couple of days ago and everyone here is super nice. From the CNA’s to the nurses to the therapist. She feels very comfortable here to complete her recovery

Great place near Scripps Park area. Went here on a Sunday morning to walk around and check the seals out, peaceful area in the early mornings. Staff and food were awesome. The view is nice too if you get there early enough to get one of the tables.

My cardisc team was originally told I would get a private room. Once there I did not. Food is horrible. I have my own brought in. I lay in my filth for hours waiting to be changed I have complained several times, nothing changes. Constant excuses of mid communication. I can't wait to get out of here.

I recently stayed at The Cove for a fall I had taken. I was more than presently surprised at how clean and odor free this place is. They really go out of their way to keep things clean. Their staff is super friendly and highly knowledgeable. They got me up and going right away, which is what I truly needed. I love the outdoor areas too. Its very nice to have that available. Us San Diegans enjoy…
