Fellowship Square Historic Mesa

I didn't like Fellowship Square Historic Mesa. The campus was too big. Even though my father walks, it would have been too big to navigate. They had two dining rooms, but they did not have consistent days that they served meals, like the one dining room did dinner on Tuesday, Thursday, and then you had to go to the other dining room Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. To me, that would have been too hard for my father to remember. The dining rooms are not open on the weekends. They will deliver to your apartment, but to me that was also an inconvenience. I suggest that they have consistent hours in the dining rooms. The person that gave me the tour was informative, friendly, and very helpful. They offered similar amenities as the other two I visited, but the biggest drawback was the lack of consistency with the dining room. It's an older community, but it was kept up good. It's near a grocery store.

I like the atmosphere in Fellowship Square Historic Mesa. The staff here are very good and highly trained. I had a couple of meals that were delivered to me and they were good (and sometimes I cook for myself). My apartment is large and there's a balcony, which I like very much. The windows are open, so you get cross ventilation. They have exercise classes, games, special trips to events, and shopping trips.

Our overall experience with Fellowship Square Historic Mesa was good and it was a friendly, well-organized community. I like the location. The staff was very knowledgeable. The rooms were roomier than I expected. They're very well kept. The dining area was clean and well organized. There's stuff going on. Their outdoor spaces were well maintained.

Fellowship Square Historic Mesa refurbishes each of the units before you move in. The general grounds are very nice. The rooms are larger than some of the facilities. They have a stove, refrigerator, microwave, and cabinets. The staff was very helpful during our visit. It's a very active community. It seemed more active there than the other communities we visited. They have a laundry room, a fitness room, a craft room, and I think a woodshop room. They had a garden area, games, a library, a chapel, and a salon. It's a fairly large community, and they actually have two dining rooms, two libraries, game rooms, and three swimming pools. We didn't have much interaction with the staff, except talking to 2 of them. We also ate, so we did interact with the head of the dining room. They were very helpful, pleasant, and friendly. They seem to be knowledgeable. We're very impressed with the place. We toured their independent living, but they also have a step-up program.

My aunt moved into Fellowship Square Historic Mesa a week or so ago. So far, so good. She likes it. It's fantastic. It's a one bedroom and one-bath. It's very easy to maneuver around, and the space is just perfect for her in terms of square footage. Everything was brand new when we moved. There's a refrigerator, a microwave, a stove, and the flooring was brand new. It was repainted. I had the opportunity to visit and choose a bedroom for her in particular. The storage area is adequate for her. Overall it's perfect. It just depends on what the individual person needs. So far, it seems to be working. The food is pretty good. Based on the monthly calendar they have card games, board games, bingo, and bridge. She tried going to the chaplain. The chaplain is just over two doors down from her apartment, and she's very interested in that. It's very open, not the typically enclosed hotel style rooms. The apartment itself is clean. The surrounding area is well maintained. Her laundry is picked up almost three times a week, and the service is great. They have the alert system that they use, which is fantastic. She wakes up every morning, and all she has to do is to press the button and say, "Hey, I'm OK." That's one of the reasons that I chose that place. Overall, the surroundings are well maintained. It's well cared for, although the building is really old. Everything makes up for that old look of the building in the services that they provide, in the landscaping, and everything else. It's very affordable.

Fellowship Square Historic Mesa is an older facility but the people there are very nice. It's been a great place, and my mother has been there close to 15 years now. The place that she has currently is an apartment with one bedroom. They have activities scheduled each month. They have a dining room that they go to and the place is reasonably priced. They have a beauty salon, they have a heated swimming pool outdoors. There's also a library with computers in them. I thought the food is pretty good too.

I stayed at Fellowship Square Historic Mesa. It was very nice. The food service is fine. You just sit down and fill out the menu and they bring it to you. The staff was very nice, but they came up with a price that was way above what I could pay. They have buses that take you to the doctor and to the store. It was a beautiful apartment, the food was good, there was a good variety, and the amenities were very nice.

We were impressed with Fellowship Square, and we're moving there. There were fresh flowers planted in the flower bed, and staff bumping into each other, helping people that needed help, and offering assistance. There are two cafeterias, so we can choose whatever food we want, and we don't have to be stuck with the rigid menu items. They have two swimming pools on the grounds, washer and dryers we can use free of charge, and buttons for falling; in case we fall we can push the button, and somebody will come and help us.

Fellowship Square Historic Mesa is a very nice, clean, comfortable, and well-run place. They serve three meals a day. You can choose to just have one or all of the meals, and the food is very good. The staff seems to be very nice and polite, and they clean the apartments once a week. If you want, they can clean more than once a week. There are a lot of different activities available for the residents. I think it's very good value.

Fellowship Square (Fellowship Square Historic Mesa) was wonderful. I liked everything: the food, the people, and the room. I thought the rooms were nice. They had some studios, which were small for me, but they worked for some other people. They had a wonderful dining room. They had a lot of stuff to do there, but there wasn't anything going on when I visited. They had bocce ball, which I have never played, and cards. They had a game room, an exercise or therapy room, and a library. They had very nice people who loved it.
