Most of the people at Celebrate South Holland are independent, but they have some that are in assisted living. It's a very nice looking and very clean place. The staff and the other residents are all very nice. Everyone seems pleasant. So far, I'm really happy about it. They have three meals a day, but lunch is the main meal. They fill you up at lunch. They have an exercise get-together in the morning, which is just a sit-down exercise because some people are in wheelchairs. Every week, they have a bus that will take them to the grocery store. There are three wings. The building is kind of separated into three long hallways. There is a common area where there is a TV, some games and puzzles. That's where people get together when they want and not everyone is just stuck in their rooms by themselves. I like the friendly, caring kind of atmosphere. Everyone's very helpful and very friendly. The food is very much like home cooking. They just need more variety. They're doing lots of work in some of the rooms and updating. All the halls have railings, and I saw workers going down and kind of disinfecting and wiping all the railings. We're required to wear a mask. I haven't participated in activities because I haven't been there that long. I see the listings, and they have bingo and the exercise. One of the reasons I went there instead of an apartment was the cost. Apartments are just so expensive. I like that in most of the senior housing that I came across, you don't pay anything extra, you just pay your flat fee. You don't pay for electricity, gas, or heat. They even have a hookup and some basic cable and you get your three meals a day. That for me, especially with very limited funds, was a very good fit. It's a good value.

I had an in-person tour of Celebrate South Holland. When I first walked in it was kind of dark. You could tell that the ceiling had some rain leakage because it had stains. The carpets were worn out. The elevators looked terrible. I don't even want to touch the buttons. When I walked into the assisted living hall it was nothing but pure pee. The people didn't look all that clean. I would not want my mother in that place. It was horrible. The staff took me to a room that she thought was empty as a model, and there was somebody living in there. She wasn't knowledgeable enough.

I wasn't as impressed with Celebrate South Holland. It seemed like the residents were not monitored as closely as I expected them to be because residents were allowing people inside and they were able to open doors. And for them to have free access to the doors, I wasn't satisfied with that. The rooms for the residents were nice in terms of space, but they didn't have any type of furnishings. The residents were required to furnish their own space. The person who provided the tour was very professional and willing to answer questions. They had rooms where the residents could gather, but I didn't see any outdoor space for them to walk around and sit outside. I don't believe that there was any fencing or enclosed spaces for them outdoors. They also probably need to brighten things up. I did detect a urine smell inside, so they needed to improve on their maintenance, too.

We put an application into the Celebrate South Holland. We chose them because they accept Section 8 and the others didn't and they weren't as expensive. It's like a high rise. They provide three meals a day and room cleaning. The assisted living, had medical personnel on the premises, which is what I was looking for. The models we saw were clean and the cafeteria was clean. We met Tara. There was also a lady who was new, and she didn't want to let us in the front door. She said we had to go around to the back and it was about to make me change our minds, but this is the only facility that seems suitable. We toured it twice and both times it was with Tara and she was friendly. We didn't interact with anybody else. Tara seemed assuring and she gave us her cellphone so we could get in touch with her there. However, when I was calling the number at first, I didn't know if she was getting the message or not, but I didn't get a callback. I had to call again.

We toured Celebrate South Holland for my parents. It seemed like it was a nice little place. They had a lot of stuff to do there for seniors. The rooms are a bit small, but I think it would be okay for two people. They have a church service for the seniors, bingo night, a coffee shop, and a movie night with popcorn. So, they have different activities. The staff were fine.

The rooms at Celebrate South Holland had old furniture and stuff like that. The mattress was old and my mom was trying to find a place where she could bring her own furniture. She wants nobody else's stuff. It was just kind of nasty. They need more cleanliness. It had a smell in it and they just have an old kitchen. They need to update that and make it look presentable, like make people want to come in for meals. I only met the woman who showed us around the place, but the other people seemed like they were OK. I didn't see enough amenities. I saw a couple of stuff. Some of the stuff was closed. They had a beauty salon (I think a lady comes in there) and I don't think it was open then. They had outdoor seating where you could sit in the front of the building. There's a Walgreens nearby, a dentist's place, and a couple of restaurants in the area.

I went to Celebrate South Holland yesterday. Everything was good until she said they didn't have a kitchen. I don't want an apartment without a kitchen. They have a dining area and three meals a day. The receptionist was good, and the administration was good. The residents were sitting outside enjoying the air. I think the facility for what they do is good.

Tara was the person who showed me around Celebrate South Holland. She was very nice and very informative. I had an excellent tour. It was a very nice facility and I found everything to be excellent. The only thing they had were studios and one bedroom, and I'm looking for a two-bedroom. So, that's the only thing that was a problem for me, because I needed it for me and my mom. The overall condition of the place was very good. Everything was clean. I found it to be an excellent location. The police station is right across the street. The post office is right across the street, too. Things like that are important for emergency response.

I loved Celebrate South Holland. It was a very nice place, and it looked like it would be a very safe environment for me. I liked that the food and everything else was included in the fee. The staff was very nice. I got to see the model apartment and it looked very nice. The dining area seemed very nice. It was like a real cafeteria. Everything was very clean. The residents were doing some kind of activity, but by the time I finished the tour, everyone had come out of whatever it was they were doing.

We toured Celebrate South Holland. We met with the marketing director who took us on a tour. It was a nice facility, but it wasn't a fit for my mother. Everything was pleasant, and the staff were cordial and pleasant, too. The rooms were small. It's an older facility. It appeared that there were activities for the residents. They had a place where the residents could have dinner, breakfast, and lunch. There was transportation that was provided for the seniors where they could go shopping. There was laundry service, too. The residents could engage in activities like puzzles, they could do arts and crafts, and there was a bible study.

The employees that I was in contact with were friendly and nice. I was disappointed that it was a kitchenett (no cooking). I was looking for independent Iiving. I want to cook my own meals. This place is actually for assisted living. It's fine for someone who needs those amenities, like 3 prepared meals a day, a night snack, all inclusive rent, in house beauty shop, etc. I can't comment on the meals because my tour was in between meal hours.

I visited Celebrate South Holland. I liked the person that showed me around. The building is kind of huge, but the thing that I disliked the most is the apartment is too small and you can't cook. I'm a cooker and there's no stove in there. They don't allow you to cook in your apartment. The person that gave me the tour was very pleasant, very knowledgeable, and caring. The amenities were good. I don't have to pay for anything (no light, no gas), and that was great. If they had a kitchen where I could cook, I would have chosen that one. They offer three meals a day. They have a beauty shop in there. The part that I saw looked pretty clean.

Celebrate South Holland was beautiful. The room was an excellent size. The only thing was the kitchens had no stove or anything, just a sink, cabinets, and a refrigerator because they don't let you cook there. There are certain types of food that I don't eat and it's mandatory that they serve you food anyway and that was the negative side. The positive side was the place was very clean and very thorough. The people were very friendly. I'm not particular about eating three meals a day sometimes, and I don't eat certain foods. I don't eat pork. I don't eat red meat. Serving me whatever I have to have was the only downfall for me. The staff was very nice, very thorough, and very accommodating. The price was a little bit higher. They said you had to put down $750 once you put in the application and it will be refunded if you're approved. They have a salon. It's required that you have a mask on if you're anywhere out of your apartment, wherever you go, and anytime you come in.

I went to Celebrate South Holland. What I liked least is that the studio apartment is tinier than what I expected. What I liked best was it was a homey, warm, and welcoming type of place. My sister was with me, and she said it felt really great when she walked in there with me. People were up and milling around. You just had a sense that this is a nice, homey place. I also had the sense that going into a facility wouldn't be as traumatic. You get three meals a day. The staff was very polite and helpful. The lady took us on a nice tour of the facility. Along the way, she told us about the amenities and everything. My sister and I both enjoyed it. We got a chance to see the dining room and the menu for that day. They had nice seating areas. They had a cafe if you wanted to get together, sit, and get a drink. We saw the laundry room. The dining room was nice and a nice size. They even had a space for nondenominational social services. They had elevators. The apartments were really nice. We saw the business office, and I was really impressed by that. People actually work there. The neighborhood was pretty. All the utilities are included in the amount.

We went to Celebrate South Holland. The building was very old, so, therefore, they did not have stoves. They don't have the resources to even convert to ovens and things like that. It was something that deterred us because I like to prepare my own meals. In a place like that, you don't have options. The only option was to have your meals prepared. I did not get a chance to try the food. The facility where the food was prepared and where the residents congregate was not impressive at all. The staff was good. The room they had was spacious, but it was very old. You could see the age of it. It had a smell. The staff did try to explain to me that they have the floor separated where people are independent living versus the ones who are assisted living. I didn't go any further because the elevator was down.

The tour I had of Celebrate South Holland was great. They were very professional. The apartments were OK, but small. The common areas were nice and clean. It was a nice community overall. The staff were nice and respectful.

We toured Celebrate South Holland and we liked that everything was under one roof. I liked the fact that they provided 3 meals a day. They had a barber and a beautician on staff, they had a doctor coming in once a month, and they would keep the apartments clean. They don't provide refrigerators or microwaves, you have to bring your own. There were balconies on each floor that the residents could go out to. The staff was very welcoming and very knowledgeable. The front desk people were polite. They offered us coffee, and it was very welcoming. They showed us the kitchen and the dining area. With Covid now, they only allow 1 resident per table and they could come down any time from 12 to 2 so that they won't have to be all down there at the same time. You could say that it was a clean building because it didn't have a smell.

Celebrate South Holland was very secure. You have to have a special code on the elevator because they cater to a lot of memory care residents. When I first walked in, it was very welcoming. I sat in the dining room with the residents who were more like independent living. They looked very happy and they were all getting along and being inclusive with everybody. It was a good mix of people. There were some older and younger seniors, and they seemed to enjoy staying there. They have very early breakfast hours from 7 to 8, but the lady offered me coffee. They were very accommodating. They also showed me the menu and how they rotate their food and specials, and how they kind of separate the memory care and assisted living dining. It was like a smaller area for them and they had some of the staff sitting with them saying, "Don't forget, you need to eat." They were very caring. The rooms were just very small. It seemed to me like it was an old hotel. It didn't seem very accessible if you were in a walker or a wheelchair (although I didn't see anybody on the grounds in a wheelchair or whatever. Most of them were mobile). I was also told that they were in the process of remodeling. They had a couple of exercise facilities and a nursing area with medical staff on-site, too. The staff was very nice. They knew other residents by name and the residents themselves were not afraid to approach the staff. They were very lovely. You could tell that they enjoyed their job and liked being there. It wasn't a show just for people who were visiting. The facilities were clean, but the cleaning products they used were very strong. It was also a little antiquated and a little bit more geared toward people with dementia/memory issues. It didn't look like my mother would thrive there and make friends. Even though when I walked in, the independent residents were very accommodating and lovely, it didn't seem like there was a lot. Also, there was a $25 application fee, a $25 doctor visit fee, and a $2500 buy-in fee. The cost was more than the other facilities that I visited, that were even nicer.

We went and toured Celebrate South Holland. It was dirty. The carpet needed to be cleaned. The staff was unorganized. We were a little late, and they acted like they didn't know we were coming. My cousin didn't like that at all. We didn't even finish the tour there. They only showed us the show apartment and they didn't show us any other. The grounds were not kept either. They needed to do some yard work. My cousin didn't like that.

I liked Celebrate South Holland. The staff was exceptionally good. I was met by a young lady named Rochelle, who was the intake manager. She was very friendly. She made you feel more like you're family than anything else. We went to see a studio apartment. It was nice, but we'd rather have the one-bedroom apartment. When we viewed a one-bedroom apartment, it looked really good. They have certain field trips, like going to the nearest Wal-Mart or the nearest Walgreens. Sometimes they have movies, too. There are common areas, and they have a lot of things to do.

I visited Celebrate South Holland. The people and the staff were really friendly. They have a rec room, gym, theater room, and laundry room. They get three meals a day. Every other week they go on a little tour somewhere. They take the people on the tour. If you want to go, you can just sign up. The one-bedroom apartment is nice. It has a refrigerator and a microwave. They don't allow stoves because of the seniors. I'll probably be on the fifth or the sixth floor. They have six floors. The first floor is all assisted senior living, where they have special medical treatments, monitoring of medications, and what have you. Overall, it was a very nice place. The staff was excellent. The police station is right across the street. The post office is next door. The library next door. Two blocks away is the main strip where all the shopping centers are. It's a good hookup. They serve meals three times a day. If you don't want the food they're serving, then you can request gourmet food, like hamburgers or something like that. They have a small gym with a bike and treadmill that is like an exercise room.

I went to Celebrate South Holland. It's kind of dated. I did see that they were doing some renovations, so that was nice. The model rooms that I saw seemed pretty nice. They looked to be well-kept and clean. It was a pretty nice size for a one-bedroom. The person who assisted me was very helpful. She was very honest. She gave a lot of good information. She was open to any questions that I had to ask. She was really good. I didn't go too far into the dining area. I only saw it from the distance, but the staff broke down the menu for me. It was pretty informative. They have a regular TV on each floor. They do grocery trips. They do light activities in the facility. I wish they had a little more to do.

When we visited Celebrate South Holland, we came to the back of the building (not realizing it was the back of the building), and the person that accommodated us at the door was very, very unfriendly because we came to that door rather than drive around the building in a wheelchair. I told her that all she had to do was just open the door up and let us in since we were already there. She finally got up in the end and let us in. We were then given a tour by a different individual who was very, very hospitable and very polite. The rooms we saw were very, very nice and very spacious. I think what I liked the most was they had two entries to the unit. One coming into the kitchen and the other one coming into the bedroom. We liked that idea, because if you wanted to have any people there, you could have them in your living room and no one would have to come through the bedroom. They have games and activities for the residents there, too. It was a wonderful tour experience, except for that one person who met us at the door.

The tour I had at Celebrate South Holland was fine. The people were very nice. The only problem I had was that the cost was too much. Everything else was fine. I liked it. I like the facility and the residents that I talked to. They asked me to have lunch and I had lunch there and the food was fantastic. The lady who gave the tour was very nice also. She showed me around and explained everything to me to the best of her capability. They were all very nice, very polite, and very caring. The rooms were roomy. The dining area and the lounge were nice. They have crafts, bingo nights, an ice cream parlor, and a nice little rec room where they have board games and a nice big TV. It's very clean and very admirable.

Celebrate South Holland was a very nice place. They provide three meals a day, laundry, and medical staff during the weekend (if you need to). They have activities you can participate in and all that is good. They would go on outings and they have a lounge area where you can be and watch TV. Depending on the room that you get, you can have a kitchenette, and it was all good for an elderly person. The lady that I met was nice. She gave a thorough understanding of what I would be up to day to day. They got security guards 24/7, so I will be safe there all the time, and they also have somebody that can assist you in gym activities.

I toured Celebrate South Holland. Basically, the levels of care seem to be all mixed together there, but my purpose was to see their independent living. It was a pleasant place and seemed like it was well-kept, clean, and orderly. The staff who assisted me was very helpful. I wasn't there long enough to really see anything going on, but it seemed like there were several things listed as possible activities. It was all mixed together with different services. It just doesn't seem like something that I would want in the long run. I would rather have them separate: the active adults from the people that needed memory care or assistance. Right off the bat, it just didn't strike me as being the best option. They were pretty much in an area where it's not necessarily confined, but not very spacious or open either. It's a pretty tight urban area.

The staff and the other residents are all very nice. Everyone seems pleasant. So far, I'm really happy about it. They have three meals a day, but lunch is the main meal. They fill you up at lunch.

That's where people get together when they want and not everyone is just stuck in their rooms by themselves. I like the friendly, caring kind of atmosphere. Everyone's very helpful and very friendly. The food is very much like home cooking. They just need more variety. They're doing lots of work in some of the rooms and updating. All the halls have railings, and I saw workers going down and kind of disinfecting and wiping all the railings. We're required to wear a mask.

We went to visit Elevate South Holland yesterday and my aunt is very pleased and interested, and we're trying to get the paperwork started. I like a lot of things about it. The rooms were wonderful. The area was clean, and they were very friendly and polite, even while we were walking during our tour, how people were speaking and greeting us. My aunt felt good and comfortable. She was very impressed and we all were. The rooms were very large and very spacious. My aunt just loved it. We already knew that she's gonna have to downsize, but it doesn't make us feel like she's going to be like a little cracker box. It's like a really lovely one-bedroom. We've seen the dining room, a couple of activity rooms, the cafe, the store, and the salon. It was just nice. The place was lovely. The gentleman was wonderful. He kind of covered some of the things that I had on my mind. The most important thing is it's within my aunt's budget. We saw the menu and he took us to the dining room where people were eating. It's restaurant type and I loved it. It had numbers on the table and I thought that was so cute. When I saw the numbers on the table, I asked if these are assigned tables, and the staff said no, you can sit wherever you want. If there's an issue or if she wants something and she's at table 17, they know how to get to her instantly. I love it because it's a very large facility and it sits by itself. You have a police station across the street on one side and you have a post office in front of the place. I'm just happy overall. I'm happy that she's loving it. She's a little scared, but when she saw this and she was asking all these questions, "All of this is going to be mine? I could have a room like this?" They had a little tub, but my aunt can't step over it. The staff said they will have her tub cut, so it could just be a walk-in shower. The grounds were nice. They have a gazebo sitting out to the side close by. When it gets warmer, people are walking out and sit all around the yard. They like to go sit in the gazebo. There are things that people can do if they just want to come out because they have plenty of benches. We're very impressed. It's a lovely place. I like the cleanliness and how it's organized. My aunt loved the place.

I had an in-person tour of Elevate South Holland. The whole place is clean. The seniors coming in and out seemed that they enjoyed it. The activities were good. The staff that did the tour with me was very patient, very thorough, answered all my questions, and courteous. She knew the facility and the people well. I watched how she interacted with different people, and she interacted well.

I toured Elevate South Holland. They're friendly, nice and clean. It seemed like they care. The studio apartment the staff showed me was nice. It's nicely sized and clean. The elevators were clean. The hallways were clean. It's a nice clean facility. The dining room was nice, too. Outside parking was nice; it's close to the building. It's very spread out but I didn't see any garden.

I like the fact that everything was included at Elevate South Holland. The meals, activities, and the whole nine yards. The utilities and cable were also included. I toured their independent living and the person who showed me around was very efficient and answered my questions. It looked like it had the feel of a nursing home but it was pretty clean and they were updating the place. They were remodeling the whole top floor. They said they had a beautician that comes in every so often but they didn't have one at the time of my visit.

Elevate South Holland was kind of dark and dim. It was kind of dreary. I only met with one person and she was friendly enough. The rooms were very dated, but they were updating that. The facility itself was very dated. One of the rooms looked like they just put a fresh coat of paint on it, but it really wasn't updated for me. One of the elevators we got on had really loud noises that she said she hasn't noticed before, but I talked to someone who had visited a few days before I did, and she said they were told the same thing, so they know that the elevator was not in good working order. Their dining room was very dreary, I wouldn't want to eat there.

We had an in-person tour of Elevate South Holland. They were very communicative. The information that they gave us was very good. I liked all the recreation things they had to offer. I liked the overall environment. It was very nice and welcoming. Honestly, this would be the one I might lean to if we couldn't seem to find anything else. My mom liked it too. My mom felt the rooms were a little small because she thought she was going to walk into an apartment. The one that we saw was like a studio, so there was no kitchen and all that, but they do offer meals in their cafeteria area, three meals a day. Everybody was sitting down, eating, and enjoying. It was kind of set up like a little restaurant. My mom liked that part of it. The staff member was very informative. She made me feel a lot better, and if I was to leave my mom there, I think she would be OK. The carpeting in the hallway looked a little worn, but overall, it was clean.

Elevate South Holland is a really nice place. Like the downstairs living area where we first come in is decorated really nice. It's got nice couches, good carpet, and nice decorations. It's really nice. It's pretty quiet. Nice lighting and nice décor. It's really nice. The staff member who accommodated me was friendly and knowledgeable. They really made sure I was comfortable. The rooms have really nice lighting, washers are modern, the décor is nice, they have nice paint jobs, nice walls, and ceilings. It's very comfortable and inviting. When you get there, you will want to live there. It is very well kept. They have a fitness room, a social room, and a salon.

The tour at Elevate South Holland was nice, but it was kind of too steep. They're beautiful and immaculate, and the atmosphere was very calming and very nice. The staff was very nice. The room was beautiful. I like the idea (which I thought was nice) that there's no cooking in the room. I like that; I love that. I would feel a lot safer if my sister was in a building like that because I know it wouldn't be caught on fire, so that was nice. They have an auditorium. They have so many activities for them to do to keep them occupied. I just love it. They have bingo and Uno, they have a pool table, and they even have an organ where you can sit in and play the organ if you play the instrument. They have a theater where they have popcorn, and they can come and watch movie nights. I love the dining room. I love how they have only one person per table. I liked that for the COVID stuff, and that way, I know my loved ones won't catch one. Everything was spread apart, and I saw it firsthand. Everybody was seated one person at a table, and I like that. The tour was excellent. They have patios on each floor.

The marketing director at Elevate South Holland (where my mom lives) is an absolute dream. The head nurse is not quite such a dream; she's a little scary, but she is doing the best she can for her patients. One of the things that I have a small issue with is from when I stayed there. We moved my mom in on a Friday, and I stayed with her a while. One thing that I didn't see going on (although maybe it's just because it was Sunday) is any type of stimulation on the memory floor for the memory people. They just had them sitting around watching movies. Frankly if those were the movies I would be stuck watching, I wouldn't be watching them either. There were two that had to do with football and the other one was The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. When I asked the CNA about it, she said they didn't have a whole lot because they're using is a DVD player. The head nurse is very conscientious. It's just that I don't think they have quite the program in place for memory care that I had expected to see, but that may have been because it was Sunday. The memory care is impeccably clean; I will give them that. It is very well organized as far as what they have on-hand for a medical emergency. The only thing that I had an issue with was the entertainment portion of the program. Frankly, I'm not sure whether circumstances were part of that or whether it was just the day. The CNAs were very versed in what they needed to do for their people. They dealt very well with the people who were there. There was one little old lady who was wandering all over the place. Every time she would get someplace where she might run into trouble, they would corral her back and deal with her very quietly, very kindly, and very patiently. I believe they have a salon for the residents, although I'm told they are currently looking for a new hairdresser to run it. They have a dining room downstairs, plus a gift shop. I didn't see much of that because of the whole COVID situation. They have TV's and one of the things that they pointed out was my mom could have a TV in her room, although I'm not sure if that's the best option for a memory care unit. They had a cable connection to that. One of the things about the bathroom is that the bathtub had a built-in bench. Kind of a lip on the one side so that if mom needed to bathe, she could sit. Then the CNA would help with the showering type part. There was an individual radiator and air conditioning unit in the room that would control the way the power ran. The window looked out over a very nice gathering place and a garden. It's all lovely.

We went and toured Elevate South Holland for my friend, and it was a lovely place. The tour was very thorough. The coordinator that took us around was very nice. We toured a little apartment, and the amenities were great. It was a really beautiful place. They had a lot of information on activities. It was just a really nice place, and I really hate she couldn't get in. They have activities like movie night and craft day. They also go shopping. They take them shopping twice a month. The food was restaurant style, and you had a menu to pick from. They also bring you your food, which I thought was pretty good. They had a secondary menu, for when you don't like the food. They had a nice auditorium for church too. The room are very, very clean, well-placed, and has enough storage for one person. We didn't tour the one bedroom; we just looked at the studio. The residents seem very happy. They even allow you to have your pets, which I thought was quite impressive. I saw a lady with a dog.

I went to Elevate South Holland. The tour was easy. It was nice, and everything was great. The staff members who gave the tour were perfect. They were professional and very nice. The rooms were neat, clean, and nice in size. They were studios and one-bedrooms. They have trips and events, too. I'm looking for myself, and I saw how clean it was and that the people were very nice, so that's why I chose it. I felt comfortable there. Meals are included, too. The whole structure was clean.

We chose Elevate South Holland for my dad because visitors are allowed, which many of the other places were not. They were so much more affordable for the services they were offering. I met the staff and everything. I'm pretty happy with their treatment. His move in experience so far is great; he likes it. In general, I think they are doing a good job of taking care of him and meeting the needs he requires. He likes the food. They constantly have activities. They constantly check on him. Since he's got activities now, he can socialize with other residents, which was difficult for him during the pandemic, It is good for him. The facility itself is an older building. I think it's from the 70's. It is clean, but it needs updating. I do not really care so much about that, as much as I care about them providing the care he needs. They do a good job with that. Their price beats everyone. The layout is conducive for him, and they have common areas where they can watch TV or go downstairs. For memory care, they have to use a code to get out. He has his own room and own bathroom. The other places which were twice the amount, had a shared room. The rooms are a good size. The staff is really good. They are all friendly, and they all want be there. I did not get the impression that they didn't want to be there. They like working with the elderly.

My mom has been a resident of Elevate South Holland for a week now, and it's a nice place. They are attentive to her needs, and the staff has been fine too. My mother has the studio and it's a nice size. It's got an air heater, and air conditioning, other than that I had to provide for the rest. It is a nice room. They got 1-bedroom unit but that would be too much space for my mother, she doesn't need that space. They watch movies, and they take them out to Walmart or to go do grocery shopping. They have activities, they have movie night downstairs, and every couple of weeks they have wine or something like that. The people are happy over there. They've got a library, and they got a couple of exercise machine over there.

When my family was first looking for a place for our mom, this was the first place I visited. The coordinator at the time was very nice, so understanding and knew exactly what my family and I was looking for to assist our mother with what she needed for her comfort once she left the comfort of her own home that she had been in for forty years with my father who passed away a couple of years ago. The staff was nice and clean, interacting with the residents and the residents that we spoke with also gave the staff, the food and the other residents A-1 praise.The only reason why the family decided to go with another facility was it was closer for all of us to get to in order to be close to mom. If this facility is close for you to be close to your love one by all means give it a try, come in talk with the staff, view the facility and see the smiles of the residents.

Holland Homes was pretty, but the rooms could've been nicer. It's a nice place. We tasted the sweet rolls and coffee and they were good. The staff was very nice and very helpful. The sweet rolls and the coffee were all we had, but everything looked really nice.

It seems like when I go over to Holland Home, my mom is always in the bed. There's not enough people to take care of her. The facility seems nice.

Holland Home is a nice place. My mother is in assisted living and I like it. The staff is professional. I haven't seen anything wrong as of yet. I like the director. It's clean and the food is good. The staff is nice. My mother tried to walk out, but they were right there on it. They're watching her. The reason why she's there is to be assisted and it is being done. They have movies that they show, church services, puzzles, and bowling, and there are exercises to work with to strengthen their brains or hands.

I really, really liked Holland Home. It was an older facility, but it has really been modernized. The pricing was very reasonable. It has a very nice theater, and they have a lot of activities. They have a coffee house, a beauty and barber shop, a library, a theater where they have light presentations, and they have sing-a-longs at night. They have a dining room where actually you order off of a menu and they bring it to you, and I liked that very much. I thought that the staff was very nice. I would rate it a four because the rooms were older. They were all studios for the main part, and the bathrooms were smaller, but it was a very, very clean facility. I liked the dining room, and the theater room was really nice. I thought that it was not chaotic and very homey. It has a gazebo and like a park area where people can go out into and sit and they have balconies on each floor where the residents can go out and sit.

From what I saw, the facility is a good place to put a loved one in. The staff that toured me around showed two different rooms on different floors. When I visited the place, I saw the residents doing some exercise activities and some were walking around. She also showed me a room where they can have people come in and have services or they can have meetings or have movies in there. She explained to me that they can take meals in their rooms. I saw a nursing staff member and she gave me some literature. So, I think that would be a very good place and it's also close to us.

We have our parents in Holland Home. They have been there for about a month now. We chose this facility because they have plenty of amenities that we like, say for example, an in-house doctor and dentist. They're also serving good food. I have eaten there on several occasions actually. It is also the only place that would let my parents stay together in an apartment; other facilities that we visited wanted to split them up. The apartment that my parents have is one of the biggest that they have. It has the most square footage. It is also the only apartment that has a little kitchenette which includes a full-sized refrigerator, a microwave over and a low sink. It also has a separate living room, a bedroom and a bathroom. The staff is very nice and polite. They are respectful and very friendly. They get to know the seniors really quickly so that they knew my parents by their names after only being there for a couple of days. I'm very pleased with them. They have a list of daily activities posted all around the facility. They also posted them in the elevator, which is great, I thought, because most of the people can see that. The best thing about this place is how they treat their seniors. They treat them more like their own family, not just clients. To me that's very appealing. I would definitely recommend them.
