Independent Living Communities in Hurst, TX

"The food is great. The employees are fabulous."

"My parents are residents of Morada Meadow Lakes, and I liked everything about it. They get two meals daily, six days a week, and one on Sundays. It's a lively facility. They do exercises. They have plans for them to do something every day, and they take them to the stores. The staff is good. They come and clean the apartment, wash some of the linens, and if my parents can't make it down for lunch they take it to their room. They play bingo. They have movie and poker nights. They've got puzzles, pool tables, and an exercise room."

"It had all three levels of care, but I visited the independent living. They told me that it was only built five years ago. It was good, but the rooms were probably average. I saw the dining area. They had three meals a day and there was a snack area where you could pick up snacks any time of the day. For the size of the facility, the dining area seemed to be small, but they told me that if you would go for independent living, you can eat in the assisted living dining room as well. I met one staff member, and she was friendly. She knew what she was talking about. It looked like an apartment building. It's four stories. It seemed to be clean."

"My brother moved to Solstice Senior Living at Grapevine. We chose it because of its proximity to where I live and I was very impressed with the place and its upkeep. It was spotless. They have lots of activities. My brother's in a wheelchair and they are elevator accessible. They have physical therapy on-site. Everybody seems very caring and very nice. My brother said the food was delicious. He needed to socialize more and I thought it was a great place. They do ice cream socials, they do bingo, they have people come in and help teach them to use their smartphones or computers, they have a library, different activities, and a happy hour. They are meticulous about keeping the place spotless. It's very comfortable. It's very nice and it was very affordable for me. I didn't think I would be able to put my brother somewhere like this, so it worked out well."

"We had a productive visit with staff while touring assisted living facilities in the area for our Mother. The staff is very kind and knowledgeable. The rooms are clean and spacious. We especially like the covered front and back patio space. Overall, it is very nice senior living facility!"

"My mom is going to The Conservatory at Keller Town Center. It's a beautiful place, and the average age there is probably mid-80s. There's a lot for them to do if they choose to. Everybody seems very friendly, warm, and helpful. Most of the residents have to be vaccinated. If you're a visitor, you'd have to put a mask on and get your temperature taken."

"I went to visit Morada Pantego. The grounds were well-kept. When you walked in, there was no clutter or anything of that nature. It looked very nice. One staff member toured with me and showed me one of the rooms. They were very nice and pleasant. They liked what they did. The dining area was nice. It wasn't crowded. You didn't feel like you had to sit very close together. The room was nice; I did get to see that. For one person, it was great."

"My mother-in-law is in here. I visited several places and when I went in, everyone was very nice and cordial, but for some reason, that place just gave me the impression that they were all very caring. For one thing, it wasn't just the fact they were caring. It was the residents there that made me feel at home also. They all would just pass by me and start talking to me. That impressed me more than anything as far as the rest of them. All of the people just were so, so friendly, the staff, residents, everyone. That's how my mother-in-law is. She talks to everyone and I said she will love this place and she does. They provide three meals a day and snacks during the daytime. I ate with her the first night and we had an awesome meal of barbecued chicken wings and it was awesome. She goes at least to two meals a day. She chose a studio because she doesn't really have a lot and she absolutely loves that she has a backdoor that goes to a patio. That sold her as much as the people being so sweet and so nice. They have exercise classes and they have all kinds of games. Her main thing was they do have a church service on Wednesday. Even last night when I went to visit her, she made me take a bite of her taco salad and it was good. Everything looks really good. I visited several of the rooms too, and they were all really nice."

"My mom moved to Morada Lake Arlington, and the big deciding factor was that I have a special needs brother, and he was able to find a place there with her as well. They were able to get a two-bedroom unit within the facility. All of their activities and the super welcoming environment have been great and accommodating for both my mom and brother. They have everything they both need, which makes things extra great because he's not a senior citizen. So, him being able to still reside with her and have a lot of engaging activities and stuff going on was a big selling point. My mom and brother say the food is fantastic."

"Arlington Plaza was very nice and well-kept. The apartment was a nice size. The eating area was good. The staff was very nice. They engage with the clients there. I didn't observe any activities, but I saw a list of the activities, and it seemed like they had enough to keep your interests."

"I'm in Emerson South Collins. They have a lot of people in here who should be in assisted living, but that's my personal opinion. What I like best are the people and the staff. Everybody's friendly. They look out for each other. The staff is also very caring. It's institutional food. The structure is old, but they're upgrading it constantly. They're getting ready to start again on the third floor. Every morning, there's a coffee and conversation. There's an exercise. They have seven activities a day. They have a book club, bingo, card club, and dominoes. I like my room. It's great. I have a one-bedroom, and it's perfect for me."

"I'm a resident at The Remington at Valley Ranch. It's clean. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Their work attitude is very good. The reason I've given the food a four instead of a five is the variety. They do housekeeping every other week here, and they do a very good job. They offer card games, other games, music, and entertainment. Compared to other communities, I think the prices are very good."

"I toured The Westmore's assisted living, and it was very nice. If I could afford it, I would go to that place, but they're way too expensive. The rooms were very nice, but were a little bit smaller."

"I toured Pinewood Hills. What I liked most was that they had a beautiful small yard on the first floor. They had a very good-sized bedroom with a bathroom. It was very nice. The only thing I did not like was that they did not offer a kitchen. There's barely room for a microwave. There was no stove or oven. I did not like that, but it seemed very friendly, clean, and nice. The staff who gave the tour was wonderful. She was very good and energetic. However, they need to lower their cost. And they have three meals a day."
