We're planning to move my mom to Sunset Park Place. We met with Shelly, she was great, she showed us around, and explained everything. We've seen two of the one bedrooms, the smaller one and the deluxe, and they were very nice. At the time we went, a lot of the residents were going to lunch. We didn't have a meal there, but it looked very good, and the dining area looked really nice as well. We've seen the laundry room, we've seen the activity room, where the church is held, and there's also a craft room. I think she covered pretty much all of the different rooms. The place was very clean, it was very nice, and felt very homey. They also have a van that they use to take people to doctors' appointments and stuff like that if we need it. The outdoors seemed very plentiful, they have a spot that's like a little garden place for people to plant tomatoes and stuff.

My mother moved into Sunset Park Place. We really like it there; it's a great place. The food is very good and she enjoys it. I have had it, as well, and it is very tasty. She has a one-bedroom that is very clean. They have a significant number of activities that she can participate in. She really enjoys being able to go out of the building. Sometimes they take them out to eat, and she really enjoys doing that. They do a great job with communication.

We are in the process of moving into a townhouse at Sunset Park Place. We chose it because they had a townhouse that we really liked that was available. Erica was wonderful. There are two parts to it. The townhouses are separate from the main building where they have independent living and assisted living. That building is very nice. We've heard so many wonderful comments about it. We didn't spend a whole lot of time there because we were really interested in the townhouse itself. As for the townhouse, it's a different thing if you actually live in the big building. It's across the street from a high school. That kind of bothers me, but other than that, Dubuque is not that big of a town, and it's pretty centrally located. I know there's an exercise class that I can join in the main building. The townhouse that we're moving into has a two bedrooms, a bath and a half, a sunroom, a kitchen, a living room, and a laundry room, and it has a full basement.

I didn't like Sunset Park Place at all. The reason for that is because the memory care unit is in the basement with all the mechanicals, like the washer and dryer, the water heater, the water softener. It was like they were living in a basement. And they had a dog there. They all just stay in that one little part of the building, that basement part of the building. They have a place in there where they have a living room area, and then there was a dining room table. It was a locked area, and they only can get out of there if they have a staff member go with them. I didn't like the way they were stuck in the basement, like a bunch of lower-class citizens or something. So that one was off my list right away. The lady that gave us the tour was very nice and very helpful. She said that they would, now and then, take them out to lunch or shopping to get them out of the building. I think she said there was one staff per resident when they did that, otherwise, the ratio was like 3:1. Out in the front of the building, there was a little place where they could sit, but it was almost right along the front of the parking lot. And the memory care people couldn't go out there at all.

We went through the whole place at Sunset Park Place. We saw where the dining room was if my husband was able to come down for a meal. They had activities. Everything was neat and orderly, and you could tell that it was a real system. The staff there was really wonderful. You just have to furnish the room, but we're sixty miles away, and that bothered me.

When I was at Sunset Park Place they weren't having the residents wear masks around each other, and my children are healthcare workers, and they said that's not good. They allowed me to go into one of the rooms that they had that was empty, but I wasn't really keen on the residents not wearing the masks when they're out of their room. The room was very nice, and I've looked there before, the staff was very nice. Everybody seemed very happy, except they were to close together without masks. Their studio apartments, they don't have anything in them, we wanted to have a bit of a countertop, and a place for a microwave. I was very pleased with the knowledge the girl gave during the tour.
