Discovery Village Quincy

Mary Ann

We had an excellent experience with our tour, we were very impressed. Everything was clean, the apartment was very nice with a kitchen. We were very pleased with the social atmosphere, the social rooms for people to congregate, and the lovely dining room. We were very satisfied. We looked at the menu but we didn't try the food. There was a whole bulletin board of all the different activities, people were taking the bus to go shopping at different stores, so people were waiting for that. The staff was very friendly.

It is a nice place, but I'm a little bit younger for that facility. It was nice. People were friendly. It was very nice and clean. The rooms were very nice. They're brand new and some of them are very nice. It was very spacious. The washers and dryers in the apartments are brand new. The layout was very nice, and it was decorated nicely. If you want to purchase some furniture, it was optional, and everything was nice and quiet. It looked safe to me. I wish I can afford it, and I would love to live there. The staff who gave me the tour was very nice and very pleasant. They showed me where they play, and they have parties. They have restaurants. There was quite a bit of other activities around there for people to do. They showed me outside. They have a lot of places for people to walk around. If you have a dog, it's a nice place to work your dog around. However, that wasn't a place for me. Everybody there was way older than me. The staff who toured me around was very nice.

Leo

The tour was friendly and informative. They have knowledgeable staff. Appliances are included in the rooms. They have a stove, a sink, and a small refrigerator. They have outdoor spaces.

Deborah

It had very nice facilities. The staff that we met with was very informative and provided us with a lot of information regarding the services that they offer. We saw a few different unit options. They offered transportation to medical appointments. They had various programs of activities. The common areas were very warm and welcoming. They have a library, a reading area, and a nice dining area. The facility is a little bit of an older building, although the units they showed us were very nice. The bathrooms are a little bit on the small side, and both my in-laws use a walker, so it would be difficult for them to be in there together. The staff was very friendly, very accommodating, and welcoming.

Patricia

It was very nice, but the one-bedroom apartment was small and I couldn't afford the two-bedroom. The people were very nice. The amenities and things looked really good. They had a pool table, poker games, and things that I liked, but I found that the apartment was boxy and small. I'm not claustrophobic, but I felt a little bit boxed in, in the apartment, and there was no furniture in there. I could imagine if you put a piece of furniture and a table in there, I would feel sort of boxed in. The staff during the tour was nice, very friendly and accommodating. I didn't get any food. In the end, they gave me a cup with a pen and some chocolates inside. I didn't see anything wrong. Everything seemed good. They showed me the dining room. Parking was excellent. You could also rent a parking space, but if I moved in there, I wouldn't need one. It was huge parking in the back and the entrance door was right there in the back of the building, so that was excellent. There was a big space outdoors. Each apartment had a small balcony, which was good. The eighth floor had the best room for me. It had nice closet space, but I don't like heights. I couldn't live on the eighth floor. I don't think they had a microwave, but they had a kitchen and a dishwasher.

Ed

The tour was very good. They had different rooms and apartments available. They made sure I was comfortable. They listened to me and the problems that I have. The staff members were very friendly. They explained the different types of care. They showed me the cafeteria, library, and all the different rooms they had. The other thing too was the convenience of being next to a supermarket. The rooms they showed me were clean. One of the other major decisions was the price. I am not a veteran, so I get no aid.

Arlene

I went to see, and I was not happy with it. It just was a little bit too old fashioned. I looked at the independent living. The gentleman who assisted me was very helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. I tried their food and it was very, very good. They had a computer room, a library, and things like that. It's in a very, very busy place traffic-wise, and getting in and out was difficult. I didn't find it delightful at all.

My mom moved in She picked it because she just thought everybody was really nice there. I thought the staff were all nice. They have all been there for a really long time, which was nice. Her apartment is cute, and she likes it. It is little, but it has everything she needs. The facility is clean, and everybody seems very happy. Everything is very easily accessible. It is near a lot of things, and that is really nice -- it is not in the middle of nowhere. You can walk across the street and get coffee, and it is within walking distance of a supermarket. It is in close proximity to a lot of stores that people would go to. I would not want to live there, but she likes it. I was surprised she likes it. I only have contact with two people; one I really liked, and one left something to be desired. Overall, I think the staff are great. I think the sales guy isn't great. My mom thinks the food is good.

Lynne

It was pretty amazing. The staff was amazing. The residents seemed very active. The rooms were really nice. They had a nice dining room, and the meal was great. It was just too far from Foxboro where my brother lives. It's more of a city setting. They seem to get people out to go to different activities. I like the fact that they're involved in the community. They're tightly knit into the community there. It's an older place, but it was in good shape.

Liz

It is working out fine. We did a virtual tour. We saw the assisted living and independent living facilities. They haven't had a lot going on because of the virus, but there definitely are activities. The staff is very pleasant. My friend hasn't complained about the food. The facility is very clean and very nice. The rent is high, but you're getting all the utilities and one meal a day, so it's not bad. All the dining is done in the rooms. The rooms are very clean.

Tzeitl

Very glad I moved my mother here; finally she is closer to me and gets the support she needs when I can't be there. The apartments are large and bright, the staff are friendly and caring. My mother often invites me and friends from outside for lunch, we're always impressed with the food. Parties for special occasions are always well-done. The staff is doing a particularly great job keeping residents save and engaged during the COVID crisis. The nurses and aides, are always helpful and really care. I couldn't have found a better place for my mom!

Michelle

It was lovely. I went to both their independent and assisted living facilities. The staff member was very nice and very helpful. The rooms were great. My parents just needed more care. It's great if your loved ones are able to do activities. It was a very open and friendly place. There were a bunch of people playing cards when I visited.

Ruth

I found here for my mother, and she's there for 6 weeks now. She started in assisted living, then pretty quickly went to independent, and it's been good. My mother's enjoying the staff, and finding people to be friendly and helpful. Her room is very nice, she's there for respite, so it's fully furnished, and completely adequate. They have tons of activities. She has gone to yoga, fitness, and bible study class. They've got everything under the sun, but she hasn't done too much else yet. It's very good for the price.

David

It was very nice, open and airy. The rooms were very nicely sized. The person during the tour was excellent and very informative. The dining area looked fine. I visited on a Saturday, so there were lots of families visiting, lots of people in the library, and they were showing a movie. There was a lot going on.

Margaret

It felt homey and comfortable. The person who toured us around was excellent. There were several things going on. I didn't find anything unsatisfactory. The place looked clean.

Beverly

I liked it very much, but it was kind of large for me. The people were very pleasant and it's a really nice place, but it was bigger than I thought it was going to be. They have an exercise room, a dining area, and they have places where you can sit out. It's a very tall building, about eight stories, so it's too overwhelming for me. They provide the food, and you can come when they already have the food for you.

Judi

It was very nice. The sizes of the rooms were very good. The facilities were excellent. Everybody there seemed very friendly and happy. I didn't see anybody sitting around sulking. It was very nice and very pleasant. The woman who took me around was very nice. She was lovely.

It is affordable and has a really diverse population in terms of the people living there as well as the staff. It's close to shopping, church, and other conveniences, so she would be able to live more independently. They also had transportation for her should she need it. It's independent but allows her to have assisted living built around should she come to need it, and she wouldn't have to move to another setting, which is very different from what everybody else offers.

Our visit was positive. I thought the staff was professional, friendly, and understood people's needs. Everything I asked them, they answered. They were kind and I could not ask for them to be any nicer. The place was clean. The food was great.

Caring111779450

I thought it was a great facility, and they were very helpful. The people there seemed to like it. The staff was very friendly and thorough. They have great amenities; the rooms, apartments and all of the activities were good. It was a really good place.

Virginia38

I was impressed. Unfortunately, the place was kind of a locked down, so there weren't too many people around at that point. The lady who showed us around was very helpful, very nice, and told me just about everything I needed to know. They had a lot of activities like bus trips. In a normal time, there seemed to be a lot things going. The apartments that I saw were very nice. They had a very nice living room, a nice bedroom, a balcony, a closet, a nice bathroom, and I kitchen I wasn't too crazy about.

It is superior; my mother is happy there. They do yoga, bingo, they have a library, and there are mild exercise classes. She’s just getting into the whole thing; she is not there yet. It’s just lovely all the way around. The room is beautiful, the facility is clean, it doesn’t smell, and it's quiet. It’s a perfect facility.

Caring96154950

It was recommended to me. The staff was good and very knowledgeable. The dining area looked good. The rooms were great and very good. Bingo was going on when we were there. It looked very secure. It was a nice visit.

Sufia

I visited. Of all the ones that I saw, this was the one that I was going to try to utilize. It was excellent and relatively modern. They had the best activities for my mother. Everybody was excellent and professional. They showed me some of the types of activities that they do, and I saw pictures of them. They have a couple of special dinners, and they set up outside to make it different and fun. They try to make it really nice for the residents there.

I spoke to the coordinator, brought my parents, and checked out the apartment. I was satisfied with what I saw and I stopped my search. We didn’t have an appointment, but they gave us a tour. The rooms were very nice, and we got the information needed.
