We chose Seventy-Five State Street for my mother. The staff was very accommodating, and we all liked the accommodations, as well as the staff to resident ratio. They have efficiency rooms with private baths, and suites (which are private rooms with very small bedrooms and a private bath). The residents seemed very interactive, pleasant, and clean.

We were very, very impressed when we first went to Seventy-Five State Street. Extremely friendly and well-organized, very informative. We were just really appreciative with the concerns that they took, even to the point when we were moving in right down to the maintenance staff, helping us with everything we needed. After we had left, there were people who came and visited with my father to be sure he wasn't lonely or confused. They were all sitting in new wheelchairs and they had this big ball and they were passing it back and forth. They have movies and they have Wi-Fi bowling, lots of activities for elderly. We, as a family, have been very impressed with what they have done so far.

I can't tell you a lot about Seventy Five State Street. I can just tell you that it was a nice place and it was the place that my parents felt they would be comfortable living in. It was really a very nice place. I liked it a lot.

They were very affordable, and I liked that they were right in Portland near the hospital. I chose not to go with them because they could not provide the care my mother was looking for. It was an older building, and it did not seem as cheerful as some of the more modern facilities.

We visited friends at Seventy-Five State Street, and their apartment was very nice. They looked like they were well taken care of, and they really enjoyed their apartment. It was spacious, and they had two bedrooms, a dining area, and a living room. They also participated in the meal plan, and actually we shared a meal with them. We had Sunday dinner with them, and it was surprisingly good. The staff in the dining room was very good, friendly, helpful, and courteous. It looked well maintained, and I thought it was reasonable.

I was impressed with the thoroughness and the openness of the people that I worked with at Seventy-Five State Street, particularly the director of admissions, but they don't have a lot of vacancies. I saw three units and they were all one-bedrooms and I liked them. I was very much impressed with what they had. They offer three meals and access to various institutions. You're not far from the art museum, St. Luke's Cathedral, a lot of things that go on downtown, the Portland Stage, and the historical society. I also liked the lovely gardens they had, particularly the environment created by the Rose Garden downstairs. I also appreciated the attention I got while I was there.

The staff from Seventy Five State Street was fine, but the place was not really to our liking. It was a little dark, old, and not very up to date, so we decided we wouldn’t be interested in it at all. The apartments were a pretty good size but not lit up. We had lunch in the dining room, and the food was fine. There weren't any activities going on at the time.
