IMPORTANT INFORMATION CONCERNING VISITING HOURS

We apologize but we may have difficulty in  accommodating visits that have time block restrictions

Typically, our normal visiting hours are as follows:

ONE visit per day - 6AM to 9PM
TWO visits same day - AM:6AM to 12PM and PM: 12PM to 9PM

(we leave at least 5 hrs in between visits)

If clients request a visit on the same day of their departure and/or return, we will work the timing of that visit whenever possible

We will ALWAYS try to accommodate clients' preferences but we can no longer ''promise'' it will be done
