Grand Living at Tower Place

We were very impressed with Grand Living at Tower Place, because we wanted to have a women only floor, and they have that. It's a secure locked floor and somebody is in attendance all the time. We just thought that was the best place. They have exercise and a lot of different things that they work on with the residents. There's two or three restaurants in there that if you want to go and take your loved one to one, you can. They showed us three different rooms. One of the rooms was the smallest. You'd be able to have a single bed, a love seat or a chair in it. Then there was a place for a little kitchen and their closet. I was not impressed, but it's better than nothing. The second one was a room with another attached room. It was divided up, so you could have your living area and then your bedroom separately, instead of having everything all in one spot/one room. All the rooms had a desk that's removable if you didn't want it. The people were very friendly. Even after the tour was over, I think the lady spent an hour with us. They had refreshments and stuff and sat right down with us. There were four of us and she answered all of our questions. I couldn't have asked for a better staff person.

Grand Living at Tower Place was a very nice place, very elegant, and very chic. The staff was good, professional, upscale, and had smiles on all their faces. It's spotless, just like a five-star hotel.

Grand Living at Tower Place was geared toward active seniors. It was beautiful and there's always something going on. They have several different community areas where staff gather and do crafts. They have a swimming pool, an exercise area, a movie theater area, and a lot more activities. They have very luxurious accommodations. The washer and dryer were included in their room, and they have staff that comes in weekly to do their laundry and clean their apartment. They have adequate bathrooms and just very luxury items. If I could afford it, it's a place where I would enjoy living. It is top-notch. The other thing that I liked about there is if one spouse has more care requirements than another, they still share the same room while the staff meets that person's needs. They have three restaurant-type areas where you order off a menu. It is not to full capacity yet, but once they get closer to full capacity, they'll open up more restaurants. Then on Friday nights, they have a social hour in a bar-type setting. They also provide limousine service for whatever is needed. We actually just popped in to take a peek that day. We did not have an appointment, but they were very accommodating in providing us with a tour. If you're looking at just the basic assisted living care, they came in the cheapest.
