"I'm a resident of Clarendale of Algonquin. It is very nice, it is not very old, and it provides a few amenities that I like. I get my blood pressure and pulse taken every morning, and they take care of my medicine for me. I don't have my medicine in my apartment; they bring it to me every morning, which is kind of nice. This is a good thing. It is located close to the Fox River, which is very beautiful, and the town that it is in is small, is kind of quaint, and has lots of good restaurants. The staff here is very friendly and accommodating. They watch out for you a little bit and make sure that you're all right. They have independent living and assisted living. One floor is reserved for people who need a little more help. It is three stories high, and I live on the second floor. There is a theater, a workout room, and a weight room with treadmills. It is a little expensive in my opinion, but mine is expensive because it includes all of my meals. The food is excellent. The main chef is really good. Sometimes it is as good as you would get in a nice restaurant, so I'm very pleased in that regard. I live by myself, so I have a one-bedroom apartment that is comfortable, and of course it is a good size. I have five windows in the apartment, which brings in some natural light. It is carpeted except for the area by the kitchen, which is hardwood. In my particular apartment, I don't have a stove -- I have a microwave, but that's OK with me, because I generally go downstairs to the dining area when I wish to have something to eat. They will also bring it to me if I ask. I have been here for about a year now. There's hardly anything to complain about. I don't participate in activities very much, but I see them posted, and I get a newsletter that describes them. They seem to be available and very varied."
