Independent Living Communities in Pasadena, CA

"On the occasions I have visited Sakura Gardens, I have found the facility to be impeccably clean and was impressed by the friendly and caring staff. Most importantly is that my aunt is always smiling and cheerful, a good sign of the care she is receiving. Shin, in particular, is always helpful and makes sure our questions are answered."

"Hollenbeck Palms is one of the oldest facilities in Los Angeles. The facility was excellent, and the personnel seemed to be well qualified. The members from the independent care were very friendly and very happy with the facility and the food. Because it was an older facility, the rooms were very spacious, and the dining room was spacious and very pleasant. The food was excellent. They had a pool, gym, very nice library, and game room. "

"It is very nice and clean, the staff is very warm and welcoming, and my patient is very pleased. "

"Belmont Village was very nice, and the staff seemed pretty wonderful. I was impressed with that. I didn’t see anything that needs to improve; they have a lot to offer. I was there at lunch time, so they were all busy with that, and there’s lot of opportunity to be busy. It’s very expensive, and for me, the value was moderate. "

"Our second choice is Atria Covina. It's a much older place. But the people there were very nice. The staff who gave the tour was very personable and very nice. They didn't have as much as the other place as far as what's available, but it was a very nice place. It almost made you feel like you lived in your own apartment, that's how I felt. It looked very clean."

"CityViewVilla Assisted Living is located in LA with architecture, landmarks and attractions surrounding the facility. I recently traveled here to take a tour and I must say, this place is one of a kind. It is my personal favorite in the Los Angeles area. Your loved one can live here independently without a care in the world. The staff are very kind and provide all of the care needed. If I had to choose my personal favorite feature about CityViewVilla would be the rooftop view of this beautiful city and lives up to its name. CityViewVilla is confident that you will like what you see, and second that. The residents are very happy and have nothing to complain about. CityViewVilla is underrated and deserves more recognition. I highly suggest you take a tour. I would also like to mention the rooms here. Once I walked into one I did not want to leave, I felt like I were taking a lovely vacation inside a 5 star hotel. "

"My father spent 3 days in Clearwater at Glendora's assisted living. The best thing about it was probably the amenities. I like the security with the check-in process that they have, too. I think the staff members were also very responsive. There was only one thing I kind of didn't like, and it was when they told me that one unit was open and then said that they made a mistake and that unit was no longer available. It would have been a perfect unit for my father because it had a view, and he always loved a view. Not that he ended up using it, but it was just a little disappointing that it ended up not being available. His living space was clean and spacious, which I really like. We also brought TVs in, and they hung them, so that was nice. We didn't try the food, but when my dad was in hospice, they offered that if the family wanted to go and have some food, we were welcome to go downstairs and have some. That was nice because they knew what we were going through."

"The Leonard on Beverly was beautiful. It's wonderful, but it's too far away. My daughter lives in Burbank, and it took over an hour to drive there, so that wouldn't work for us. It was brand new, and it had beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces. The rooms were fine. The staff was very helpful and very friendly."

"It is very nice, but more geared towards being a retirement place. My dad didn't like the fact that my mom have to take one elevator, then through an area, then up another elevator. It wasn't a very direct way to get to the rooms, and it's a large community. The staff who accommodated us was very helpful and very nice, it was a very pleasant experience. We checked the dining area and it was lovely. It was a very nice place, but it's just a little bit too big for my dad. We also checked the rooms."

"After finishing up 16 months at Lakewood Park Manor, I can say that I have personally seen the hard work that all of the staff puts in to make sure the residents have the best experience possible. Lakewood Park Manor strives continuously to make sure they can give the best convalescent care possible all the time."

"Beverly Hills Carmel Retirement Hotel is a five star facility. Staying in this facility is like staying in a hotel. The staff members are cheerful, welcoming and full of energy. The facility is well decorated and clean. Loved ones are well taken care off. This facility is five out of five and I would hifgly recommend. "

"It looked very clean and very professional. I think they would have worked just fine for my mother-in-law. The staff seemed fine. The rooms were clean. We didn't get to taste the food, but the dining room looked good and kind of elegant. It's close to where we live."

"It is really, really great. The people are amazing. The facility is beautiful, and we are so happy with it. My mom has her own room. There’s lots of care when she needs help, like there are a lot of buttons that she can push if she needs helps. She also has a bracelet, so she just presses that button if she needs help. It’s perfect. I could not ask for more from them. They have a salon for her to get haircut, and somebody comes in to cut toenails and fingernails. They have exercise classes, music, and even history lessons. Their restaurant area is really nice. "

"La Mirada Heights was very nice. It reminded me of a nice hotel. The people were very friendly and very kind. The residents there were very nice, too. I like it. It was a nice location, and the whole building was beautiful and new-looking. They had more care than we wanted. They serve three meals a day in their cafeteria, which is wonderful if you don't want to cook. It is a little more expensive than what we want, so we have to figure out how to come up with more money. The units were nicely renovated. I like the friendliness and the professionalism of the people who work there. They followed up, and they quoted the price, but it's kind of out of our price range. I wish they didn't have so much service there. My brother could have lived there if they didn't have three meals a day in the cafeteria. I don't think he can eat that much anyway. The staff was friendly. They greeted you with pleasant enthusiasm. I admired them immediately. The layout was very nice. They had outdoor areas where you could sit in the garden. They had a library setting, too. I also like the layout. You can go out of your room, and there are a lot of areas in the lobby where you can just sit and watch the people go by. They have a nice parking lot. It reminded me of a fine hotel."
