What I liked best about Senior Suites of Auburn Gresham was the young lady I spoke with. She was very pleasant and gave a lot of good information. What I liked least about it was the waiting list. It was so long, that it was kind of discouraging to even apply. The rooms were kind of small and compact. They don't have a lot of storage space. The young lady was very nice and knowledgeable. Looked like it was clean.

I've seen the outside of Senior Suites of Auburn Gresham. I've never seen the inside. The staff was polite, friendly, helpful, and informative. It was very clean, very quiet, and very kept. The grounds were beautiful. I had looked this facility up online, so I knew a lot about it. They didn't have to give me anything. They gave me extra pamphlet anyway about the amenities and what my mom could expect, but I already knew it, so I saved them a lot of work. It was street parking, so it was pretty. Everything was fine. I didn't get a tour, but it was still helpful.

Senior Suites of Auburn Gresham is more modern because they've been operating for only 8 years. There's different modes of entertainment, like a game room, you can have parties, they play cards, or watch movies downstairs with a lot of people. They take you shopping once a week. The staff explained about each floor while they were taking me around. That's how I knew that they have a washer and dryer and activity rooms on each floor, and they have 5 floors in total. They have a 24-hour nurse service, and you can pull the cord in the bathroom or front room so someone comes in case you get sick. They have someone to clean your apartment once a month, or you can get someone else if you want.

Senior Suites was a pretty nice place. They were having a senior fair, so there was a lot of activity going on. The staff was very polite, very professional, and very inviting. I didn't have to pull answers out of them; they gave me full and rich answers. I appreciated that, and even the janitor was very accommodating in showing me around. They showed me a 1-bedroom and a studio; it looked very nice, but the studio was too small.

Everybody at Senior Suites of Auburn Gresham was very nice and very welcoming. The place seemed to be clean, and the residents seemed to be content. The staff was very nice, answered all of our questions, were very informative, and I can't think of one single negative thing to say about them. Dad liked the place, too, and was very impressed. In fact, he didn't want to want to live in a senior building until we went to visit this place. Now, he wants to live in it.

Senior Suites of Auborn Gresham is fine, clean, centrally located, but it doesn’t have security, and the rooms are small. The bus line runs in front of the place. The staff was very nice, friendly, informative, and accommodating. I saw some residents in the community room.

We choose Auburn Gresham Senior Suites because of the location and availability. It is a nice clean place. The staff is very friendly and caring. They have a dining area. The rooms are in a very nice size. They have a lot of activities and they also have services that takes them to grocery stores and doctor's appointments. My friend loves it and I love it too. I am definitely recommending it to others.

I really liked Senior Suites of Auburn. It is a beautiful facility. I feel very secured with the security that they have there. They're very conscientious about the seniors' safety and security. The staff treated me very nicely. But they wouldn't admit me because I am considered as a high-income earner.
