"Merrill Gardens at Renton Centre is a very nice facility. Nothing's bad about it at all. It's just that downtown Renton is the one they're at, and the neighborhood is just getting a little bit challenging. Crime is higher in the area, and they're not..."
"I went to the Merrill Gardens at Kirkland. I liked the fact that this was in a city. They were very good. They had a gym and a hair salon.They had activities. The staff did not follow up with me, but they were friendly. It's near shops and restaurant..."
"We toured Timber Ridge at Talus. They were very helpful. They had a lovely library. The unit was much smaller than the other two places that I've looked at. The food was very good, and it was restaurant-type dining. You could eat in the main dining r..."
"We toured 3 different places that were independent living and without a meal plan. Of those 3, I liked Boulevard Park Place the best. They did not have an income cap so you don't have to qualify and you don't need a maximum income. You don't have to ..."

"We went to Pacific Regent Bellevue. It was a very new and very tall building. It was 17 floors that they were on. They were right in the downtown part of Bellevue. They had two-bedroom apartments and studios. It's a beautiful area. They provided meal..."

"I also toured this facility with my 84 year old mother. It has a quiet wooded setting in addition to all of the amenities listed previously. There are way more activity clubs to join than previously listed. We are awaiting an opening to buy in.

"I went to Tukwila Village Senior Living. It was very clean and very adequate.
They had one and two-bedroom apartments. They had a smaller unit that had the bed and the living room in the same area, and it still had a kitchen and a bathroom. The fac..."
"My mother will be moving into Evergreen Court Retirement Homes. They have something called transitional. It's closer to independent living, but it can be changed at any time when there's other care that's needed. My mother is kind of on the border. S..."
"Arrowhead was a very nice facility, and I believe it is several floors. The lobby is very nice. The staff is very nice. It is very clean. They have vegetable gardens and where people can have their own space and grow their own vegetables and flowers...."
"My son-in-law and my daughter found Merrill Gardens in a local big neighborhood, but it’s on a hill where you can’t get out for walking. It also as it turns out has about two-thirds of the people there have dementia. I decided that I would be part of..."
"I chose Reserve at Renton for myself because I needed to move into an area before I retire, and that area has everything around it. It has a grocery store, restaurant, and all of that around, and that's pretty much what I wanted. I go by there almost..."
"I was in Brandenwood Apartments for twenty minutes and Debbie, the manager, was very thorough and answered all my questions. It's a small community. It's a 60-unit building, and it's not new, but it's very clean, and you can definitely feel you have ..."
"Merrill Gardens at the University was very nice. They have a courtyard outside and access to a roof garden. I'm very much an outside person, so that was very attractive to me. The rooms were clean and updated. The staff was outstanding. The woman who..."
"My brother will be moving out of Mariblu Southcenter's independent living today. He was there not for the same reason that other people probably are. He really thought that he could handle independent living, and he did not want to be in assisted liv..."
We went to look at Aljoya Mercer Island. We like the walkability. The Starbucks is behind you, and we lived on Mercer Island for 40 years, as did one of our daughters, so it's a community we know....
