Park Vista Retirement Living - North Hill

Evelyn

We will be moving to Park Vista Retirement Living North Hill. The tour was good, everybody was nice, the place was very clean, and the apartment that we're getting is really nice. The place itself looks really nice and some parts are pretty fancy. We'll be getting a one-bedroom, and when we move in there the meals will be provided twice a day. They have a beauty shop and barber shop, they have amenities, and all kinds of stuff. They have a place to exercise, a library, and what they call a pub. They have lots of different places and things to do there, so it's just nice. The guy that showed us around was very, very nice, and very accommodating. We get a housekeeper every other week, the utilities are included, and all the meals are included.

My tour at Park Vista Retirement Living - North Hill was good. The staff Josh explained quite a bit and showed us around. The rooms were nice and roomy. It had a full kitchen that my mom didn't need, but it was nice. They said they had activities. They had stuff to keep them busy, and they took them places. There were bingo and all that kind of stuff. The lunchroom looked nice. We were just in the front meeting area there and it was a nice little area. The staff I dealt with was Josh and he was helpful.

My mother has moved to Park Vista Retirement Living - North Hill. The place was clean, the people were friendly, and the place was inviting. The staff was so friendly, I was so impressed when I met there. They started calling my mom by her first name right away, they're just so sweet. Josh is one of the directors there, and he was fabulous. I didn't sample the food myself, but my mom was impressed with it. They had daily activities for all the residents. This wasn't the lowest-priced place, but it was by no means the highest since. The first floor is just designated for assisted living and stuff. The floor that my mom is on has a private balcony where they can sit in the sun, and there's seating out there. There's a little library nook with tables and chairs, up and down the hallway, there are places with overstuffed chairs for them to sit and visit.

Park Vista Retirement Living - North Hill was very nice and very friendly. There were lots of things to do. The guy that does the tours was very nice. I have nothing bad to say about any of it as far as the public places. I saw people chatting everywhere and people walking around. It wasn't a mealtime, so we didn't see people eating, but the dining rooms were open. It was pretty lively. They showed me the one-bedroom with a den. It was very clean, but very small, and pretty outdated. There's not much with the finishes, it's just kind of blah, you can't paint the walls or anything; outdated carpet. They've got independent living and assisted living, and their prices go by what tier you're in as far as care needs. They have a bus or a van to take you to your doctors' appointments and things like that, but if you wanted to go out to eat, they would not take you to a restaurant. It's just for mostly doctors' appointments or maybe groceries, but I think you have to be in a group to do that. It's a nice place. I wouldn't have any problem with my parents living there, but part of the reason I decided not to go is because the rooms were small. I know they're small everywhere and all those things, but they also were pretty bland. The appliances were older, the cupboards were older, and the carpet was older. That would be my only complaint about it.

Park Vista Retirement Living - North Hill was fine. The staff told me a little bit about the place. We didn't walk through the place very much. He showed me the dining room, and then we walked up to see the room he was talking about. Then he talked about pricing and some things like what we would need to know about how the process would go. The room I looked at was a one-bed apartment. I guess they have some studios and stuff too.

We like Park Vista Retirement Living a lot. I liked the gal who showed us around, and I liked that it's larger than the other one we toured. It was clean. I wish I could have seen more of it, but because of COVID, we could only see a couple of empty apartments. The hallways were very clean, and there were no weird smells, and I liked that. I only talked with one lady, and she was great. The facility was bigger, and it was more of a complex. The other facility was more homey, but that doesn't matter much to me. It was also well kept.
