I toured Atria Bonita and it was my favorite, and that's where we're going to be moving my dad. I like that it was clean and welcoming. It looked modern and updated and had lots of activities. We're going with assisted living here.
The staff was knowledgeable and welcoming. They have a courtyard and the room have patios and balconies.

We went on a tour at Atria Bonita Senior Living. My mom likes the 1-bedroom layout in that place and the library. The buildings are nice. The staff was very nice and very knowledgeable of the facility, the pricing, and all that kind of stuff. They have a courtyard type of outdoor space, that's actually almost indoors. It was very lush and green. It was a cool area to be in outside of your room. It's a nice area.

I have my heart set on Atria Bonita for my aunt. I haven't had a chance to actually speak with them because I missed my appointment. However, my game plan is hopefully to get out there today to meet with their manager, or whoever is over at the facility.
I have been there before to visit somebody that was in there. She's my playmom. I was very pleased with how clean and organized the place was. They really take good care of their residents. I visited the assisted living there because my playmom, who was able to get around, still needed assistance. She had a private room with a kitchen and a bathroom.
I saw residents eating in the dining area. I ate there one Christmas and the food was really good. I would stay there; I told my kids that. The staff was very pleasant. They try to keep their residents busy. They play bingo, they have arts and crafts, and for those that are mobile they have little exercises for them.

We went to Atria Bonita, but we couldn't tour the whole facility because of COVID, just the one little tour room that they had set up. It was great. If it weren't for COVID, I'm sure we would have been able to tour the whole facility but they greeted us at the door, they walked us into the tour room and then they followed up with a phone call. It's just that the med management was too expensive. If it weren't for that, I would have put my sister in there in a heartbeat.
I really, really liked the facility and I liked that she could have had her own private room, but it was the whole med management piece that meet us out of our price point. The staff is very great and topnotch. I think COVID really puts a lot of restrictions on what they're allowed to do. The room was great. It was perfect, nice, clean, personally decorated and really cute.

I went and did an in-person tour of Atria Bonita. We just saw a room, a studio, and she explained what the one-bedroom would look like. It looks nice, the model rooms they're all fixed up, they're very small.

My sister moved into Atria Bonita. She was in another Atria facility, so it was an easy transfer. Her room is a little over 300 square feet. It has a little kitchenette and a bathroom. It doesn't have a lot of closet space, but the ceilings are nice, so it makes you feel like it's a little bit more open. It's comfortable. She's kind of packed in there because she has a lot of things, so a little more storage would've been better for her. She also has huge windows and her particular place goes out onto a garden, so she can walk out and sit down on a little patio out on the garden. She's on the bottom floor.
The staff members are all really friendly. She doesn't like the food because the cook there doesn't make it presentable, and it's not tasty. The activities are so limited because of Covid, but they are trying in a smaller scale, like six people come in to watch a movie, or they'll have a little bingo with a few people. They're trying to open up activities for them under the situation that they're in. Normally, they have a lot of activities.
The girls at the front desk are great. The nurse doesn't speak real good English, so I have a hard time with her, but she seems real attentive. They have an activity room, a pool table, and an exercise room, but they can't use them right now.

I chose Atria Bonita because they had what we needed, and the price was right. The staff was helpful, welcoming, and we really liked them. The dining area was very nice, the meals were decent, good, and it's like cafeteria food. The activities look good, and look like they would keep the residents busy, but my mother just moved in there.

I visited to Atria Bonita. I really liked the lady who talked to me. She was very persistent to follow-up and made sure I found a place for my mom, so I had a good experience with Atria. I found it a bit dated, but the residents I observed seemed happy there. They have less expensive apartments, but the care plan would be more expensive, and in the long run, it would cost about the same as others, if not more. The rooms were adequate, the dining area was fine, and it's more of a restaurant setting.

We loved it, which we picked for my mom, but she decided not to go. It was clean, and the staff was very cordial and accommodating. What we liked most was that the residents seemed very comfortable and happy. The rooms were nice, decently sized, and very clean. There were a lot of activities.

It had about 80 residents. I did not like the layout of the rooms because they had odd shapes -- at least the ones we saw. I saw 2 rooms with a connecting hallway. The staff was nice, but they had to be. It had a nice dining area and a little cafe. It was well decorated, and it seemed almost homey.

My mother is in here. The rooms are large, and most of them have a view of a really nice courtyard. The staff was really helpful, and they seemed to engage with the residents. The food was really good as well. Every time I’ve gone to visit, the staff has been very welcoming, and they seemed to know my mother pretty well.

I visited and it seemed a little bit cramped to me. The staff was very nice. There wasn't many amenities, and the rooms were quite small.

It was very good. This facility is our favorite among all that we have visited. They have all kinds of activities. They have a fitness center, a computer center, a pool, a bistro, a library, and a beauty salon. They prepare fresh meals, three times a day. They have a nice courtyard. They have housekeeping and laundry service available. The staff is wonderful. The rooms were nice. I would definitely recommend this facility because I felt so comfortable here and I know other people will be too.

We had my mother in the memory care unit for about 3 months. In general, it was good. In retrospect, my mom needed more care than they could provide. She had a private room -- which we wanted -- but they had maybe 15 patients and only had like 2 people to help them. So, I felt that she had too much time where she was unassisted. I just thought she needed more individual attention than she received. She was happy with the food. It was prepared well, and they all ate together in a communal dining area. They had a lot of activities. Even though most of them were wheelchair bound, they would still have them do physical exercises, games, memory games, and music.

It is really nice and very clean. The staff is very friendly and I would love to have my father go there. I like that their area is more accessible because they have grocery stores nearby and a veterinary hospital next door. I like the layout of the rooms. I like the way that you could have a shared room. They have a couple of meeting rooms and their courtyard seems very pretty.

I Had to find a nice place for my 91 year old Mother. I live in Alabama so with no other relatives around the San Diego area where she has lived for 26 years alone..she now needed help. She loves the place and the food. The staff members really care about her needs and make her feel welcome . She said that she feels better being in a smaller facility where she knows everyone like family. Kudos to the entire staff for making my Mother happy again.

My mom is now in here. It is the easiest to get to from my sister's house and it seems to be the best one for my mom. It is a very nice facility. They have a courtyard in the middle, like a little park, that residents can go out to. They can sit there on benches, but they still couldn't go out and go anywhere because it is a secure facility. My mom has a spacious room that has a bedroom, a bathroom, a little kitchen, and a little patio outside. I saw a lot of indoor activities for them, which is good because my mom is 92 and couldn't do much outdoor activities. This place is also a pet-friendly community. Mom is really happy about that. She would pet the owners' dogs that stay there. In fact, that is the very best thing for her being there.

It is close to our house. Everybody seems really nice and my dad doesn't seem to have any complaints. The staff is always friendly when they come in. I've talked to other residents who have been there for years and they all seem to be very happy there. They have a big courtyard in the center of the facility with vegetable garden, a flower garden, and sitting area for everybody.
My dad loves the food. They have a chef that's really good. We got him a studio apartment which is quite large. It's got room enough for a queen-size bed, sofa, big dresser, big TV, and a walk-in shower. It's got balcony, so he can stay outside for a while. He also loves the activities that they do.
