"Regency Park Oak Knoll was a really great place. The only reason we did not select it was the price. It was a beautiful place. They were all very attentive. All of the residents seemed to be happy there. It was properly placed in the community. However, they did not allow people to go there 24 hours a day. The people and the building were well-kept. The staff was very attentive and very responsive to all of my questions. "

"I toured Pasadena Highlands. It was pleasant. They didn't feed me. The lady who took me on the tour admitted that they were working on their food. So, even though I didn't taste it, it's probably just standard institutional food. It's not bad, but nothing to write home about. Some people that I met were friendly. It was a pretty good community. It would have been better if I had been able to eat lunch with some of these people and get to know them. The staff, they were helpful. The lady who took me on the tour, Ariana, was a very pleasant person and she was very informative. They have most of the stuff, but it's kind of small. The exercise room was small. The price of the rooms was kind of where most of the places were, but I was surprised that this studio was $4700 a month and the one bedroom was only $5000 a month. The $5000 a month, included one meal a day. If you wanted a full three meals a day, the price was $5500. All the rooms had a two-burner electric range, a microwave, and a small refrigerator/freezer. They all had that, which is good. It gave you the option of cooking your meals if you want to do so, and I thought that was nice."

"Ivy Park at San Marino is the nicest in my father's price range that I've seen, and it's also literally up the block from where he lives and where his brother and sister live. It was incredibly clean and well kept. We actually had lunch. My dad didn't want to stay, so they asked if they could pack him a lunch, and he said yes. They packed up their special of the day. We took it home and ate and it was delicious. I like that the menus have a lot of choices. It seems like the food was very fresh. We looked at a one-bedroom and a studio. The one-bedroom was very large. He even said, "Oh, this is larger than what I expected," which was good. There was a lot of staff around. I wish the grounds were bigger. I wish there was more outside space for him to walk around. That's probably the biggest and only really deficit that I noted during our time there. It was excellent. I would live there if I needed it. I've seen a lot in the past and it was definitely the best kept property. My father is not aware of how disabled he is, and his remark afterward was, "Oh, I could see myself living there," which I thought was great. And then he said, "In a couple of years.""

"I had been down to Sparr Heights Estates Senior Living many times, and I visited the memory care facility recently. They're right in the middle of the downtown area in Montrose. It seems to be well-staffed. They had just switched over to the new company when I did my walkthrough. It's a nice facility. They provide three meals a day and they told me that my aunt could have a special diet. It's not really a special diet, it's just what she's used to having. They seem to be operating trying to please the patients. However, I haven't cared too much for the person they have to make all the decisions of all my aunt's needs and stuff. She has been very hard to get a hold of. She has been sort of unapproachable. My aunt lives in Malibu right now, and she said, "Oh, I don't cover Malibu." They've got a lot of activities. Each room has its own bathroom. My aunt needs assistance in preparing and getting out of the shower, and they have a special showering facility for those people. Their parking is street parking, and you have to hunt for a place to go. So that was a downfall as far as parking facilities. However, the memory facility is on the first floor with their own private outdoor patio. They can have gardening and little things like that."

"My mother is in Sakura Gardens of Los Angeles. She speaks only Japanese and the nice thing is they have Japanese-speaking caregivers and Japanese cuisine. They can select either continental or Japanese cuisine. All staff and residents are vaccinated and strict protocols are in place. They have a lot of activities and volunteers from the Japanese community come out and do things in Japanese for them, such as daily exercise, karaoke, movies and small bands. They have beautiful gardens, a huge koi pond, waterfalls, rock sculptures, and bonsai trees within the grounds. All the staff are incredible and they do everything to help the residents. They've just remodeled everything, and it's a very reasonably priced. AWESOME"

"A couple of weeks ago, I visited Hollenbeck Palms in Los Angeles and I like that very much. They have a chapel which is unique. The location is not ideal as the surrounding area is not exactly high class but I still really like it. It's the best out of every place that I have visited so far. The people were very friendly. I was able to meet a number of residents and I was impressed by how friendly they were. I only met one staff member and she was very helpful. I would rate her very highly. I probably need to say though that all I can afford at Hollenback is a studio apartment because if you're going to get a 1-bedroom, there's a substantial buy-in of over $200,000. That is a bit of a difficulty for me. I was also impressed by the food. I had lunch there with some nice people. The food was the best of all that I have had and I had lunch at several places I visited. They had the one thing the others did not have and that's the chapel. That appeals very much to me."

"Belmont Village is lovely and the Ferrari of assisted living. Everything about is excellent. It was large and daunting. The dining area is incomparable, like going to a restaurant, and the food is delicious. The services and amenities are top of the line, and they have a 24/7 nurse staff; however, you have to pay for it, and it was too much of a stretch. "

"I went to Ivy Park at Burbank and visited their memory care. I liked that it had a very low residency. They didn't care for a whole lot of people. So, there was a lot of help per resident and the rooms were large and nice. Dawn, the woman who was in charge of the place, was very helpful, very nice, and gave me a lot of information. I saw a single room with a large bathroom. The room itself was also large with the windows. So, that was unique to Ivy Park at Burbank. It had the biggest room of any place that I looked at. The menu was very impressive, both for the cafe and the restaurant itself. There were two restaurants. They had a movie theater, a seating area, sort of recreation rooms, and outdoor spaces. They had a lot of options."

"I had a very good experience at Belmont Village Hollywood Heights. It was very nice, very well-maintained, clean, and artsy. It used to be a beautiful old hotel and had an old Hollywood theme. They had card games, brought in entertainment, and when we were there, they were getting ready to have awards and dressing up like they were going to the Oscars; they actually gave awards to the people who worked and lived there. It was decorated pretty and had a red carpet. It was awesome. They had rooms where you could sit and read, rooms where you could have company, and beautiful carpeting and paintings on the wall. The food was good. You had a choice of what you wanted, and they put fruit on the table. The chef came out to talk to us to see how we liked the food. It was a classy place. You could sit around the pool, and they had plants and flowers although they didn't have a lot of outdoor space."

"We have two relatives in the City View Villa. One is eighty-three and independent while the other one, my mother-in-law who's got dementia, is probably in the second level of assisted living. The place is very clean, the people are very responsive, and we couldn't be happier with it. The eighty-three year old lady just loves it. They have normal activities, outings, arts and crafts. The food is excellent and my husband said it's great. Everything is really going well. It is close to home and we see them every week. I actually recommended the place to our neighbor for her mother and I will definitely recommend it to others as well. "

"We visited the Bethany Towers assisted living facility while searching for a suitable assisted living facility for our great aunt. Many of our family members live in the area, so this would be an ideal place for her to live. The outer grounds looked well-kept and pleasant. The staff greeted us and seemed very warm and friendly - which is the most important thing to our family. We want our aunt to be treated well in his new home. The foyer was nicely decorated and seemed homey, as did all of the communal rooms. The private spaces were all clean, well-kept and conveniently designed. They take the time to personalize to each resident's tastes. The dining areas were nicely designed and warm. Residents may choose communal dining or more private situations. There are places for them to visit with families, as well. The food looked deliciously prepared, as well as nutritious. The dietician and chef changes up the menu to keep it interesting and encourage resident to make suggestions. The activity calendar features many healthy and stimulating activities. They have outings to local libraries, events, culture, restaurants, shopping and athletic events. They take suggestions to update the schedule as much as possible. We really liked that the staff encourages participation and tries to make everything interesting for its residents. Staff appeared to make every effort to ensure that the residents were both safe and comfortable in this living environment. "

"Clearwater at Glendora was the best place we've been to. It was fairly new. I liked that they had four different outside patios. The rooms were spacious. Everybody seemed pretty nice. They were pleasant to us. It was clean. I thought it was brand new. One of the guys I talked to said he had been there a year and a half so it's not that brand new, but it looked very nice, and walking in was very pleasant. The place was all open. They had a happy hour, which we didn't stay for, but we got a little portion of it, and it was very nice. I wasn't too happy with the food. It was not the best, but it wasn't too bad. My wife just wanted a hamburger and it was raw. She wasn't too happy with it. My wife is an excellent cook so she knows how to cook, and that was their one failing."
