Seniors good or bad tenants?

Is it legal to advertise a senior discount for a rental as a way to attract an older tenant? Are seniors generally good tenants anyway?

My seniors take good care of the home but tend to need more attention. They have to call for everything. The don't text, they don't login to a tenant portal, don't pay online. 

Next issue is health. I have had one get late on rent a few times because she was in the hospital. I want to be the nice guy and understand she is ill, but I still have to make the house payments. 

I have no idea on the legal aspect. I would ask a lawyer in your area.
