The Residence at Melrose Station was awesome. It's luxury senior living. It's for profit, but it's beautiful. It has everything anybody could really want if they can afford it. I liked everything about it. They have lots of activities. They have different things coming in from week to week that are entertaining from the outside, like concerts. In the summertime they have a garden that they can do out on the deck. They have exercise classes and they have a happy hour every day at 4:00. There was nothing really negative about it. The staff is all very pleasant and very caring. They have a hair salon and they have a workout area that's like a gym.

My mother is staying at The Residence at Melrose Station. I think that for a first-time senior living experience, it's been great. As her family members, what we see is she's getting the best of care. It's a great building with a beautifully appointed lobby and common spaces. The rooms are very nice, and I think mom is very happy there. The food and the care are good. The people who work at the front, like everybody, are good. It's a really great place. I think she's just tired because she's been there two years now, and she just wants a change of scenery. It's a great place. I was tempted to move in, and I think I qualify because I'm over fifty-five. I just don't live in the same city. The landscape and the common areas are just gorgeous. She is in independent living, but she does have some assistance with showering and housekeeping. She's in a studio, so she would prefer something larger; but for her, it's fine.

We visited The Residence at Melrose Station and it was good. The first thing was the proximity; it is in the same town as I live in. Second thing was it is a new building. The only thing that was not the greatest was that it was a little bit pricey compared to others. The price is the only negative, but I think they do give discounts and stuff. I heard from the salespersons that they have a few, but overall I had a good experience there. The staff was helpful, and they seemed to interact well with the residents. The rooms were a little small for the price I'd have to say, but they were nice quality, just a little smaller.

My father is at The Residence at Melrose Station. They're excellent. He loves the food. He thinks he's in a five-star hotel, and he's very happy. We've been able to have outdoor visits from the beginning, and now we can do indoor visits, but we wear the full PPE. They've been very accommodating with everything and my dad seems to be very happy there. It's beautiful. It looks like you're walking into a five-star hotel. The activities stopped because of COVID because they couldn't have everybody intermingling, but now they have gone back to having activities. The activities looked really fantastic the first time I visited. They just started up again, and he seems to really like it. We're getting our money's worth.

The Residence at Melrose Station was extremely luxurious. It just opened and it's like a 5-star hotel. It was beautiful. It was on the pricier side, but when they first opened they were offering huge monthly discount rates for the rent. They've got a luxurious dining room and it was anytime dining all day long. The person who showed us around was wonderful and has followed up a few times. Parking was wonderful. They had a rooftop patio deck, outdoor decks, and areas where the residents can do vegetable planting. They have a happy hour every afternoon where they put out appetizers for all the residents and cocktails and what I tasted was very good.

The Residence at Melrose Station is lovely. They give very good care, and the staff is very loving. My mother's room is wonderful. There are activities all day long for them. I recommend them highly. The food is very good, and the dining area is restaurant style. It's quite expensive.
