"I visited Chestnut Park at Cleveland Circle. It went very well with very good staff. The amenities are good but the rooms are very small. They have access in those function rooms to computers and library books. The restaurant looks good. We did not sample the meal, but we looked at the menu, and it looked good."

"Brigham House is in a residential area, which is two blocks from my mother's house. We went in, and we enjoyed everything. We talked to the people living there, and they seemed to really like the place. There's a nice big park there, and we can wheel her out. People can come, visit, and walk through the park. The school is also right here, so you feel like there are people around. She's happy there. They put on little shows every now and then. They have people come in with music, and they have animals come and visit. They have bingo nights and a little bit of everything, which keeps her busy. My brothers have positive things to say about it and so does my mother. "

"Being at the Gables at Winchester was like being on a mini cruise ship. It was very comfortable, and they were very attentive and very clean. I just liked it a lot. The staff members were very professional, very courteous, and very good with calling back; very efficient. Each of the room has its own character as everyone's personality, so it's geared to one's preferences. I have not eaten there, but the menu sounds fantastic; it was very nice. They are very nurturing and I love that. They go to outings in Boston; they just go to all kinds of things that are happening locally. "

"My sister is a resident of The Residence at Watertown Square. It's very nice. It has a view over the garden, it's furnished very well and has its own individual bathroom. It's not more than three doors away from the nurse's station. The whole facility is nice. They have lots of activities. They have music, bingo, and all kinds of art activities and things. She likes to sing a lot. So they have all kinds of things there. The facility seemed very clean to me when I went there. The food is very good. They have good chefs, and good portions for the people there. It's costly, but I would say you're getting what you pay for."

"The activities that Sunrise of Arlington MA offers are superior. My mother was actually very interested in moving in there. The appearance of the place is really fabulous. It has a very tranquil feel, and very spacious feeling on the inside. It's beautifully designed aesthetically and really quite amazing on the inside. The food was delicious and they had a wonderful chef there. The lady who took us around was new, but she was very polite, nice, and charming."

"I looked at Evans Park. I loved it. It was very pretty. The people seemed happy. The staff seemed attentive. The rooms were very nice. It was a converted hotel, so the rooms were not cookie cutter. They were all different. It was very nice. "

"I picked Sunrise of Lynnfield because they are close by and the experience so far has been fine. They're very helpful to my mother. She needs a lot of care and everybody's very nice and very patient. It's very pretty and very home like, too. It does not look like a hospital or a nursing home. "

"I visited Sunrise of Newton. They've got very personalized service and multiple levels of care. There are just a couple of things that don't fit our particular situation. The person during the tour, Eric, was very good. The rooms were very, very stylish, well appointed, and were easy to navigate. It's a very good facility."

"I chose Benchmark Senior Living at Woburn for my dad because I like the location; it's right off the highway. I like the people. They all seemed very friendly. I also like the whole activities schedule, and the whole place in general. They do all sorts of things like puzzles, crafts, they have trivia time, game time, and then they go out and do activities. Today they went to a steakhouse, and they also went apple picking, and it was great. They have everything, like a dining room where you can eat three meals a day, and they provide snacks. There's a bar where they have happy hour every day. They also clean and they take care of your medication. They do everything and you don’t have to worry about a thing. The food is OK, but for the kind of money that you pay, I think it should be a bit better, like maybe there should be more variety. I don't think my father quite understands the menu, so he just keeps getting cheeseburgers."

"I chose The Residence at Boylston Place because Josh, the CEO, and the staff that I met were very gracious and friendly. I felt comfortable with them. They have lots of interesting, varied, and age-appropriate activities. The food is farm-to-table and the vegetables that come with dinner are fresh, well-prepared and there are salads and fresh fruit. I've never had better food. The facility is bright. It has a bay window with a beautiful view of the sky and trees. It's also a good size. Not too small, not too big. They are friendly and efficient."

"I toured The Residence at Vinnin Square. I think the facility was very nice and I think the help was very nice, too. The rooms looked typical. There was nothing special about it, but they seemed spacious enough. There was a nice walking path and a nice porch, and there were a whole bunch of activities. They had trips to the town and they had speakers come. The staff who assisted me with the tour was really nice and very friendly. I thought their location was convenient."

"Scandinavian Living Center was an absolutely lovely facility. Great staff, beautiful, lots of recreational and educational opportunities, and good food. It had beautiful rooms, small, intimate settings. You name it, they have it: music, dance, games, outside speakers coming in, and community organizations that meet in the building so the seniors can participate. You basically have a little apartment with a little bit of a kitchenette, but they had communal meals too."

"We're very familiar with Longwood because it was our backyard for 50 years. We all went to school there, myself and my siblings and now my kids all went there. It's now turned into from an elementary school to an assisted living but very limited assistance. It is less expensive and they have a wonderful, wonderful dining room but I don't think that they have an activity schedule. I would say sanitation was top notch. We have many friends that are there and they are all pretty pleased with it. I've only visited a couple of people there but I would say that the 1-bedrooom apartments are probably a little larger. "
