My parents are in Cogir of Sonoma Senior Living. I think it's an excellent location. It gives them freedom and yet they're secured and they felt safe. There's always somebody there around the clock. They've been very accommodating and helpful with immediate needs like air-conditioning or whatever if something wasn't working right. So far, all their services have been excellent. Their apartment is all redone, so it's brand new and spacious enough. They have excellent closet space, a modern kitchen, and a lot of natural lighting with windows. I put them on the main floor, and they have a nice little patio there. It's on a very quiet street and the location is convenient to the downtown grocery store or wherever they want to go within Sonoma Valley. It's pretty centrally located. It's not in the outskirts at all. The place is very clean and they updated it two years ago. The only thing concerning a little bit is maybe the center garden area. There's a little bit of uneven pavement and so people that are a little bit impaired like my dad, it's gonna take a while for him to get used to, but other than that, I'm very happy with it. The activities are good. It doesn't feel like a senior living. It feels more like a hotel and it's just overall a definite place. I feel like I'm getting my money's worth overall compared to other communities in the Greater Bay area.

Cogir of Sonoma Senior Living was beautiful. When it's my turn, I'm going to enroll. It's so nice. The apartment was gorgeous. The grounds were beautiful. They had the transportation. They had a very nice restaurant and a lot of games and entertainment, which I think is important for seniors. The location was close to Downtown Sonoma Square. The staff was fabulous, very sweet, and very helpful. They were fantastic.

Cogir of Sonoma Senior Living was a terrific place. I loved it. It was just really far from my mom's grandkids. It was a lovely setting in a quiet neighborhood. It was a clean and airy facility with a nice balcony and a beautiful courtyard. Lee took me around and she was very knowledgeable and helpful with all my questions. The rooms were a decent size and they had everything one could want.

I went to Cogir of Sonoma Senior Living and met with Leigh. She took us around and was very pleasant and very knowledgeable. The facility was nice, large, and seemed to be well maintained. There's a lot of activities and the apartments were very nice. They were also large with a nice layout. It's clean, well-maintained, and very bright. Leigh showed us the menu and it was fantastic. We went to the dining facility and she went through it pretty extensively. It was a very pleasant place and was very nice. It's just a little older.

We did a tour of Cogir of Sonoma. We liked it because their facilities looked fine, and the decision was based on the location (staying in the same town). They looked modern, updated, and well-kept. He extolled their virtues sufficiently, I believe. I had some questions that I haven't had answered yet. I didn't have any food; the dining area is closed off right now due to COVID situations. There are no dining facilities that are functioning at this point. On the tour, they showed the dining area, activities room, and an entranceway. They have a large living room for the general populace, which all seemed in good condition, well-maintained. They had a couple patios, outdoor areas with the gardens, and some grapes. That also seemed to be well tended and well cared for. I only met about two people, and the people that will be doing the caring, I haven't met.

We went to Cogir of Sonoma Senior Living. It was a very busy place, it was pleasant, and there was a lot happening that morning. Someone was moving out and someone was moving in, so it was very active. We got a wonderful tour from Lee, and she is just so upbeat and pleasant to listen to. She answered all our questions. The places looked nice. We looked at the dining area and it was restaurant style. In fact, we talked to the chef who happened to be in the hallway, and he was very pleasant, and very willing to please. There seemed to be an outdoor yoga class in the back patio, and it looked very pleasant. It was in among the trees, so it was cool and nice. I saw a small exercise room, and I saw a library. I saw so many that day. Anyway, there was a whole list of things that they were going to be doing.

They're very accommodating at Cogir of Sonoma. They have a community garden and a nice courtyard. I was able to talk to one of the cooks, and the menus were phenomenal. The dining room was almost like a four-star restaurant, and it was very clean. I like that there are small corners there, like one room had three or four ladies with a TV screen learning how to speak Spanish, another table was set up in the hallway if you wanted to do independent reading or independent work on a jigsaw puzzle, and there was a man doing a jigsaw puzzle. The woman doing the tour seemed to know everybody's name and greeted everybody as we walked past them. It was a very friendly and open atmosphere. They had two burner glass top cooking, so if I wanted to make a pot of soup or raviolis, I could. It also had an apartment-size refrigerator and storage. The staff that I interacted with was very friendly, very open, answered all my questions, was very patient, and understood that I was doing research. It's a beautiful facility. They have membership in a gym that's just a few blocks away, and it has both indoor and outdoor swimming pools.

Cogir of Sonoma Senior Living was very nicely done. It was new and remodeled. It's just very clean, neat, and tidy. I like that one; it's just a little too far out of my way. The staff was very nice. I didn't look around the neighborhood, but it looked like a pleasant one.

Sonoma is the one I would move to if I decided to move. It was excellent. They're very attentive. I was also very impressed that our server was knowledgeable about the wine that was served. The head of their sales and marketing was extremely helpful. After I did the tour and really contemplated the possibility of moving in, I called and asked if they had a floorplan that showed the actual dimensions and that was promptly furnished. I'm very favorably impressed with it. The dining area was excellent and the food was outstanding. The apartments were nicely done. I would have liked it if they have college level classes for continuing education, but that would be the only significant deficit that I could point to. It was not a huge issue; I could manage to attend some such classes elsewhere. Overall, I am very favorably impressed.

Our tour was great. The staff was extremely friendly and very accommodating. The amenities are great for a place like that. You get everything all included. The quality of the place itself is immaculate. They have lots of activities. It is a nice place. They have studios, 1-bedroom apartments, and 2-bedroom-up-to-2-bathroom apartments. They have a small library, an exercise room, and a room where they have gatherings and show films. They do quilting on site, you can sign up for trips, and you can sign up to have the van take you to your regular appointments, go get prescriptions, and do your grocery shopping. On the weekends, they have car shows, barbeques, and small parties. I saw the food, and it looked really good.

I have been a resident. I was really comfortable with it. I do graphics stuff and poetry, and they have activities to meet my needs. Physically, it was an OK place, and located in the part of town that provides a lot of activities, such as food places outside the campus. It was physically attractive and socially pleasant, and so I was happy there. The food was fine, as well as the variety and the quantity, and it was satisfactory and healthy. The staff was fine and I was comfortable with them.

It is very pretty, the staff is very helpful, and the food is great. I really love my apartment, and they have a lot of activities and lectures for the residents. They have a lawn with nice landscaping and assigned parking with signs as well.

I like that there is a lot of greenery, a lot of shade, and a lot of outdoor space for my mom. She is in a one-bedroom, so she has a bedroom, a full kitchen, a bathroom, and a living room. I ate there last week, and the food was great. She is very happy there. She plays bingo in the morning, and she does bridge in the afternoon. They also take them on bus trips to different places. I would recommend it.

We chose it for my wife, but currently we are on their waiting list as they don’t have any two-bedroom availability yet. I like the location of facility, and their food was satisfactory.
