It was fantastic. They treated me really well on the tour and were willing to take my mother in pretty much right away if I needed that. It seemed like an excellent facility. The rooms were small, but comfortable. All the residents looked happy and comfortable. The dining area looked quite comfortable.

It was very nice. I enjoyed it. It was a beautiful place. It seemed they're on top of everything. I saw the library and the rooms. The apartments were very nice and clean. Everything looked clean. The director and a nurse talked to us, which was very nice. They were very helpful.

This is the only one I really liked. It’s a like a resort -- fully equipped, great condition and great views from every direction. They had bingo and social hour. The dining area was very clean and organized, and the food was very tasty. I really like the staff and how the people were treated. It looks like a place where they can get better and stronger. It seems like the people are very happy to live there.

I toured. It was very nice but didn’t measure up in every way to the other facility I've toured. The rooms were very nice as well as the facility itself, but it wasn’t quite as homey. There was a list of classes and things to do, but it didn’t felt like you were living in a home.

It was very open and very nice inside and outside. The place where my father-in-law would be staying was not up to par. He would be in the memory care center, and we want the best for him. The staff was great; there weren't any problems there.

It was very clean and comfortable. The people seemed pretty happy. I liked the movie area. They had to share a room, but overall, the place was very nice. I thought it was a really great place. Honestly, it was a place that I would live in. I would feel very comfortable if my aunt would be in there, because I knew they would be able to assist her in everything that she needed done for her.

The facility is nice and clean with friendly service. The staff was courteous and helpful. With their activities, they have plenty of them. They were doing exercises on their chairs or something like that.

My dad was here. This place is nice as well and rather large. In San Dimas, I never saw anybody sit out in the patio area. I very rarely saw anybody. To me the patio area -- even though it is very lovely -- really isn't being occupied. It is quite nice, but not as lovely as the other place. It was also very accommodating, and the staff was very good. The care was very good there. I wouldn't say a five, but the care there is probably a four. I would recommend it. My dad had a quite lovely one-bedroom apartment there, and it was very nice. The food was quite good there too. As for activities, they were nice and pretty good.

It's an updated facility and very nice. The staff was congenial -- very friendly. The people were happy, laughing, and really having a good time. The rooms were very nice and very clean. They have a lot of activities for them, and they also have a van that would take them were they wanted to go like doctor's appointments, on tour, and other different things that they wanted to do.

My mom has been there for a week now, and it seems very nice. She seems to be fairly happy at the moment. Right now it seems very good, but we will see how things go. The facility is clean and they have very clean grounds. Everyone seems to be very nice. I haven't been able to eat there, but Mom said its fine. They have all kinds of activities, and she has participated in bingo once. Parking could be much better, because, going in as a visitor, depending on when you go, it can be completely full and there is nowhere to park. The location is very nice and easy accessible. It's close to lots of amenities.
