"We moved mom to Grandview Care Lodge. They're a small place. They have a maximum of only eight residents and that was the reason that we chose that place. This way she could get some more individualized care. Where she was at was pretty impersonal, especially compared to this place. She seems to be better adjusted, and it's because she's not in a place with a hundred people. They always know where she is. So far, it's worked out great. She fits in well with the people. She's adjusted really well. It's more like a family environment. She gets to socialize with people as well. It's so much better. The people that run it are very nice and very personable. Mom gets care whenever she needs it. She's adapted really well to the place. She's happier than where she was. They have private rooms. They've done a number of activities. It was built by the owner about 15 years ago, but it's very well maintained. There's a central dining area and that's where the meals are. They have a little gym in there, although it rarely gets used. The residents at this facility (at least the ones that are there now) are typically older than the ones where she's at. It's not a nursing home, but it is advanced assisted living. The staff is all competent. They know how to deal with elderly people. The food is adequate. It's not great food. The rooms are a little bit small. I've seen them doing activities a couple of times. For the amount they're doing, they're pretty reasonably priced."

"We only investigated a shared apartment at The Fountains of Hilltop. We found all the facilities, the activities, and the service to be excellent. Excellent recreation and food service. The food facilities were outstanding, but we did not participate in the meal. We interacted with the staff who gave us the tour and she anticipated our questions and issues with them with a lot of sensitivity."

"My brother-in-law was a resident of The Commons of Hilltop Assisted Living. The place was very nice. It's not quite as warm and inviting, slightly more sterile in its colors and look, but very nicely furnished. The staff is wonderful, and the food is fabulous. There were other activities, and the rest of it was all very good. They have a two-bedroom with a living room, kitchen, and bathroom with a shower included, so it was very comfortable but a little pricey."

"My tour at The Retreat at Harbor Cove was more spontaneous. They wanted to go over paperwork first before they would show you the room, then we started talking, and they said that they were going to split my parents. They said they were 8 x 10 rooms and all they had was a bed and a closet in the room. They could have a chair if they wanted to, but there were no facilities, no self-serving sink, or anything like that. You had to share those kinds of facilities with another client in a different room. It was like a boarding house more or less than it was an assisted living. I would not leave my parents there, not even once. They smelled like urine. I don't know if they were having a bad day that day or not. The staff was very knowledgeable. She was trying to be very friendly, but there was a client that was there that was sitting in a wheelchair who told me, "Don't even look here" and that scared me. I started the whole tour on the defensive. The residents were not happy. They should improve on cleanliness and make it more of a personal care instead of overall care. I realized that they probably didn't have the funding for facilities or bathrooms, but they should at least have a sink, especially with everything that's going around right now, you need that special treatment or care to make sure that you don't pass it on to someone else. There is no way that you could keep a clean environment by sharing a bathroom with three other people that you have no control over or let alone know."

"I toured The Residence at Grand Mesa. The staff was fantastic. I think there were two rooms, no kitchens, just a place to put your icebox and microwave, but they were nice. And I wanted to get in there because I could walk here and there."
