The service at Hillcrest is excellent, and they do everything that you need, but they don't force you if you can do it on your own. There are tremendous number of activities, which I don't participate in, but they're available, and I think that's an excellent thing. Our rooms are very well maintained, and we have multiple choices in food. The owner is superb and compassionate. I'm extremely happy here and comfortable.

My mother is in Hillcrest Royale. My overall impression of the place is very good; that is why I put her there. They have several different sizes of rooms, but they are very nice. They are like a large hotel room with a very nice size bathroom and a very large closet and a balcony. The room sizes are all extremely adequate. The activities they offer are excellent. Their calendar is full everyday with lots of activities like bingo, music, arts & crafts, exercise class, and brain games.

My father-in-law that’s at Hillcrest Royale has care that comes in and spends the whole day with him. It’s a smaller facility. They have 2 dining halls and a community room. They have people that come on the grounds, and they socialize. They have a movie theater. They’re very conveniently located because they’re across the street from one of the little outdoor malls. There are a lot of restaurants and shopping that is within walking distance. Our family member was still walking and using a walker at the time that he moved in, so for him to be able to get around like that was a big plus for us.
They have shuttles where they take field trips and outings, and I know they go to things like the senior center also in town. They post the calendar, and it says the activities of the month and who’s coming and going. They post the menu, and the dining halls are nice. There are 2 big dining halls, and they have linen tablecloths, so it feels nice.
I can’t say enough nice things about the staff. They’re really great there, and they make him feel like family; that was important to us. It doesn’t look like the community is aging. They keep it clean and maintained, and it looks fine when you come in.

My relative has been in Hillcrest Royale for a couple of months now. It's very, very nice. She's very happy there. The room is lovely; the food is good. They take really good care of them. They're busy all the time. They have exercise, and there's always music going. They have games and classes. They have a lunch/brunch where they go out to a nice restaurant about once every three weeks or so. They do their laundry, give them their medication, and help them dress. All those things cost a little more.
They have single rooms, and they're very, very spacious. There's a little kitchenette that has a refrigerator, a sink, and a little cabinet area for their dishes if they want, but there's no stove. My aunt has one of those rooms, and then the next room is her bedroom, so she has a really big place. They have a great staff. It's family-owned, so they have a real family touch, and they're very helpful. I'm pretty happy with everything so far.

Though I don't visit my grandfather as often as I should, the woman behind the front desk at Hillcrest Royale always seems to recognize me and immediately be able to locate my grandfather, whether he's in his room, in the dining hall or relaxing some of the facility's other social areas. I'm comforted by the fact that the staff and residents always seem so cordial with each other. My grandfather's room is spacious and comfortable with a great view of Thousand Oaks. Artwork and furniture from his old living arrangement were brought in. Not only is he comfortable, but when I or other family members visit, we feel more as though we're visiting a hotel or apartment than entering an assisted living facility. Before finding Hillcrest Royale, we checked out some places that I know I personally would not like to spend my time in. Hillcrest Royale is a great place for my grandpa and knowing that brings my family peace of mind.
