"I arrived at The Savoy Gracious Retirement Living a couple of minutes early. I went into the office, and a man there, who appeared to be a manager of some type, said he will let the tour person know. I didn't have any place to really sit, so I sat at the edge of the dining area. It was getting toward eating time, so people were starting to gather. The funny thing is, when I walked in, two of the women were sitting in a little conversation area, and they were talking about, "I wish we were at the other place." The reason for that was that The Savoy is surrounded by concrete. There are parking lots and busy streets, but that's all. There is more parking at The Savory than there was at the other place, so that was nice, but it was a building next to other buildings, and it was not quite as nice to be outside. I waited for whoever it was who was going to tour, and it took about 10 minutes. I thought, "OK. They're not really excited about touring." One of the residents then asked me, "Are you waiting for someone?" And I said, "Yes. I'm waiting for a tour. So she went into the office, and this lady, the one that I saw go in, came out and said, "I was just going to call you to see where you were." I said, "A gentleman said that he was letting you know." "Oh, I don't check my texts when I'm out." So it didn't start very well. I expected to be welcomed. The tour itself was very nice. I got to see a couple of rooms, and they were probably nicer than the other place. It's definitely newer. I asked a resident who was eating, "How's the food?" He gave two thumbs up, so apparently the food is very good there. They provide a full-size refrigerator in the apartment. They have an area that they call a bistro that you can reserve, which has a full-sized oven and a stove. It is set up like a little cafe that you could actually use. They said people reserve it if they want to bake a cake or something, and they use that. I thought that was a nice touch. They serve three meals a day, so you never have to cook."

"We visited the Tremont. The place is nice and spacious. There were two bedrooms that were perfect for my sister. The food is delicious. The people were incredibly nice. There were lots of activities to do. The staff was very nice. They answered all my questions. They're enjoying what they did and enjoying the people around them. A very nice place to live."

"My tour at Florida Golden Adult Care went very well. I liked that it was a neighborhood, in that my aunt wouldn't get lost in a giant building. The place was very clean. The staff who toured us was very welcoming and informative. I was given a tour of the house. She showed me the complete facility. The dining area was clean and welcoming. There's a nice big backyard with a screened-in porch to eat out, and there's a TV, too."

"I toured Bahama Bay Club Luxury Senior Living. It's too expensive, and they can't accommodate my diet. However, it's a very attractive and nice place. It looks like you're in a resort. The facility was very clean, and the outdoors was kept nicely. The staff was very nice and friendly, and you felt welcomed."

"I liked Inspired Living and that is where my dad will be going. It was very warm, inviting, and offered many services. The staff was wonderful, and they were friendly, and accommodating. It was brand new, the grounds were beautiful, and close to major highways. The rooms were spacious, brand new, beautiful, and handicap friendly. They have a lot of sitting areas on the different floors near the rooms, the dining area is beautiful, and open, and people can eat whenever they want."

"I moved to Arya at Windermere, it topped my list that's why I ended up here. The staff is great, and when I walked in I felt comfortable. The people and everything, I enjoyed it all. They have bingo, entertainment, there's a lot of stuff, they also have special breakfasts and lunches, they have all sorts of activities. They've done an excellent job on the food and the presentation. The apartment is beautiful, it's one of the nicest places I've been to and I liked it.

"Gentry Park Orlando was very nice and secluded. You don't hear the traffic, and it's located off the beaten track. The staff is very warm and welcoming. They serve three meals a day. They have a physical fitness facility, laundry service, and 24-hour alert service. The staff answered all the questions we had and were very open about their fees. They had housekeeping services and welcome pets, which was a biggie since we have two dogs. The Wi-Fi and TV were included in the monthly rent. Overall, it seemed to be a really nice place to live. "

"I'm interested in The Summit of Winter Garden. I just liked it. It felt comfortable. They showed me an apartment, everything was very nice. It was just very nicely laid out, it was big enough and not too big, and it had a nice little bedroom, and a living room. The residents were playing bingo, they had everything, and they said they have a party every Friday night. They had a beauty shop and library, which were very nice, and they offer transportation. It's a very clean and very well-maintained facility."

"We were very impressed with Villa Grande on Saxon. Their one-bedroom, one-bath had a full kitchen, which sort of appealed to us. Carol was very informative, very friendly, and answered all of our questions. I just asked to be shown the pool, the exercise area, and the room."

"We like Lakeside at Waterman Village a lot. We liked where it was located. It was pretty and very comfortable. They have nice apartments, but at the time, it was out of our price range. Overall, the staff was wonderful. The place was very clean. They presented very well. They had all kinds of activities. It was a nice place. The only drawback was that we couldn't afford it. The staff was amazing. They were very patient and understanding and very capable of answering any questions that we had. They were really nice. They took us on a tour of the entire area. It was just beautiful. The facility was well kept. The staff was very friendly, polite, and helpful, too."
