"Mom is very satisfied living here. She's been living there for six weeks now. It has a very comfortable and homey kind of environment. Mom has a nice, large one-bedroom, and it too feels comfortable. The staff has been great so far. They are very accommodating and caring. The food seems to be very nice and well prepared. I really like the facility, and I like the people that I met. It's also close to us and close to the hospital. "

"I visited and we saw the assisted living. They have three meals a day. They come in and take out the trash once a week. They do the bedding, and they do the laundry. They have activities as well. Everything is just very nice. They have an activities director as well. They take them on outings, and they would take them to their doctor appointments if needed. It's a very nice facility. They have a really nice, clean courtyard with a beautiful fountain. It's just very serene and clean. I looked at the room that I was going to choose for him, which was very nice and clean. It has a microwave, refrigerator, and the restroom was built so they can just walk in; they don't have to step over. They have a seating area for them and there are handlebars. Everyone would get one of those emergency things."

"The Fountains at Sea Bluffs was a nice and clean facility. It seemed like they had a lot to offer to the residents. I was there three years ago to visit someone who lived there. We had a meal, and it was delicious. They had great cooks. It was like a five-course meal. They had so many activities and games. The room she had was beautiful. It was a 1-bedroom suite. It was so nice. It was like a little apartment. The staff was very friendly, very thoughtful, and very appreciative that we were there visiting and talking to the other residents. It was just a nice place."

"It was a very good facility. It was very close to the house and our church. My husband was impressed with it so we chose it. The staff was very friendly. They all knew my name and they were extremely nice. They had nurses to give me my pills and took my blood pressure. I had a hospital bed because I required one and I had a big room with a kitchen and a bathroom. The food was excellent; we had a dining room and we could pick what we wanted from a menu. I stayed there for a month before I went home. They have a lot of activities and it’s a very social place. "

"The staff and all the residents are very pleasant, especially Moe our activity director and Jose the housekeeper, also the chef is very polite. I am a vegetarian and he always makes vegetarian food for me."

"I have toured Park Terrace and I liked everything about it. The rooms, the cleanliness, the atmosphere, it was a wonderful place. The staff was friendly, informative, and caring. They have a variety of things that they offer, and they have activities outside of the facility that you can take advantage of. Each apartment either had a patio or balcony, depending on the floor that they were on. The upkeep and cleanliness were excellent. They had a gym and salon, and they also had transportation and housekeeping. They offered everything that you want."

"I thought the moving my dad in was going to be hard just because its a new environment but my dad adapted very well and that was because the staff welcomed him with open arms as if they had already met him before. I've gone everyday since then to visit him and he just seems so happy being there. I'm glad i made this move where not only is my dad happy but i'm happy and comfortable with him being there."

"We looked around here. It looked like a very nice place. It had smaller rooms and had lots of activities. I saw some ladies making goody bags for the policemen because of some civic activities that they were doing. Some people were playing cards at a table and they had a nice little area that had refreshments and desserts. I saw games and exercises. The girl that took us around was super nice. The people seemed very friendly and every time you walk past someone, they would say hi. It had a very nice patio and a really huge dining area, which was more like a cafeteria. It was very nice."

"Park Plaza is a very beautiful place, but the population is about 20 years older than my sister. The resident can be in a room and it can be either assisted or independent, depending if you purchase the extra services. There isn't one end that's assisted and one end that is independent. You actually purchase the assistance as a package, so it doesn't matter what room you're in. The room costs $4,200 and if you want assistance you add another $650. The other thing is the hefty community fee that you pay that's nonrefundable. It's $6,000 and people should be aware of that. They say when someone moves out, they redo the room. If your loved one goes in there and a month later they can't stay there anymore, you do not get that refunded. The studios were very nice. They were 450 square feet, but the layout was nice. The one-bedrooms were 550 square feet. They had a puzzle room and movies. I was there on a Sunday, so it was fairly empty. They have only 100 people there and a lot of them were not there at the time that we went. They had included in the fee electricity, internet, and meals. They seemed to have a nice dining room with a nice menu. My sister is a vegetarian and they could accommodate; they will make something that's not on the menu. Transportation could be to doctors' offices and that's included without purchasing level one. Level one is if someone needs help with the bath or medication management, stuff like that, which is approximately $700 extra. In addition to paying the $4,200 a month, the level of care goes up anywhere between $700 and $3,500 on top of that. It was a very nice and clean place, and the people seemed very nice. It's not too big, which is good. I didn't really talk to any staff other than Jennifer who was very nice."

"I am fairly new here, and I just want to say how much I love being here and appreciate everything they do. Especially, the servers in the dining room. It has been so hard during this time of Covid, but it's nice to have everyone here to care about me and be here for me."

"The food that I had at Walnut Village was incredible. I really felt like it was fine dining at a restaurant. The staff said this is normally what is served. She also said they based their food on points. You could spend your points for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, or you don't have to use them at all, and you can use them for your guests. Their food was incredible. The staff said that this is a formal sit-down dining room, and you would come dressed nicely here. The only drawback with Walnut Village is that it sits in the middle of where Disneyland is. Other than that, they have valet parking, and it was beautiful inside. Other than that traffic, it was totally a 10. Everything was new, first-class, and clean. The only reservation I have is the location. They have all kinds of activities. They have a beautiful indoor pool, a beautiful area to exercise with lots of exercise equipments, a beautiful courtyard, a beautiful library, and a game room. It was just gorgeous."

"My mom is in Rowntree Gardens. It's beautiful, one of the nicest places in that area. They have a huge garden area. They have a library, a fitness room, a TV area, and a big, huge dining area. Rowntree Gardens is very big. They have a schedule of activities that you can go to. She has a list of things that she can go to. When she first started, she enjoyed the different activities. They have different areas, when she goes to see the doctor, they have a whole wing for PT, doctor visits, and things like that."

"Corona RCFE was very nice, and the people were very friendly. The grounds were good. The room is perfect for my mother who is 92. She just needs a room with a little bed, a chair, and a TV. That's all she needs. It looks like she can go out and go to the dining room area, and things like that, and they have those things available too. The staff who helped me was very friendly and answered all the questions. She was very good. I didn't sample the food, but the dining area was fine. For activities, they have a little room where people can go and they can meet with each other and play games and so on, so that's fine."
