We toured Village Manor Retirement. The physical appearance is beautiful. It's 14 years old, you wouldn't know if it's four months old. It's beautifully kept. It's very well lit. It has wide-open spaces for people to walk, especially people who need walkers or other assistance. My domestic partner liked the fact that it was bright and open. You walk in, the lobby is very big, it's got comfortable sofas. People are sitting and chatting. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the facility and the family that has cared for it for 14 years. We had residents coming up, introducing themselves to us. Several wanted to show him their rooms, and he gladly took a look at the rooms. We saw empty rooms that he was very surprised at, because of the size, all the windows, and an enclosed patio, and he liked the idea very much. There's a wonderful, comfortable library with a fireplace where people sit and read books or listen to their cell phones and with their earbuds, and they can just sit and be comfortable, and read or listen. We didn't have a meal, but we were told that the food was very good. There's variety. The portions are good- sized. We toured the first and second floors. The second floor is nice and bright and has a lot of little spaces where you could sit and be comfortable and just be quiet. There's also a little bowling table up there, you could play games with family members and things. We were very impressed. The grounds were beautiful, lots of woods around, and it was very easy to get to major cross streets, and major freeways. It was very accessible. You don't hear a lot of road noise because the facility is kind of set up way back from the road. So it's very nice to drive up there and see it, and when you're sitting out on the patio, which we did, you don't hear a lot of the road noise. So that was nice.
The tour director Jana was wonderful. She knows so much about the place and pointed out a lot. We left with a terrific package of information, room sizes, pricing, and what's included. We met with the two medical people who were very forthcoming. My domestic partner has a drug regimen because he is immunosuppressed from a lung transplant. So he had some very critical medications that can't be disrupted, and they were very good at giving me the name of the pharmacy that they worked through. So they were wonderful with him. They spent about 20 minutes talking to him, finding out about his blindness, and what they could do for him. The tour was a very positive experience, but the medical part was especially important for him.

I'm going with Village Manor Retirement for my mom for respite. My tour was great. They were nice, answered all our questions, and it was a beautiful place. I like that the location is close to my home, and the people that I spoke with were very helpful, it was clean and open, and airy. It was a nice place and my mom likes it. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They were planning an event that day, and it was really fun, it was like a Hawaiian thing that was cute. It's on East Highland Road which is the main road, so it's a three-lane road that's easily accessible. The grounds are beautiful, very well maintained, they have balconies overlooking, the green space.

Village Manor was really nice. It was a newer facility. Their pricing was a little high, I thought. The rooms were nice. They were good size. The dining room was nicer. The staff was helpful and informative.

I toured Village Manor Retirement for my mom, and it was very beautiful. It was very clean, and it was laid out really nicely. The only negative thing from my mom's perspective would be that the laundry is not in the rooms, so it would be hard for her to do her laundry without having to pay for it. They're very clean, everybody seems happy there, but it's just a little on the expensive side for a lot of seniors, especially the ones who don't have a lot of money. The staff is very knowledgeable. The place is very clean, very organized, and they take a lot of pride in their facility.

I'm gonna be going to Village Manor. It's nice and clean, and everybody is very happy. My apartment is a typical 1-bedroom. The building is well-maintained and clean, and they have a courtyard.

I visited Village Manor Retirement. They were very nice and very welcoming. They had primarily one- and two-bedroom apartments. The dining room itself was nice, bright, and quite comfortable, and the tables were round. Activities were about the same as what everybody else has like bingo, movies, etc.

I don’t have any worries at Village Manor. They treat me fine. I like the meals, and there are services offered. They have an activities program and exercise. They have a library, gathering room, a lobby for people, and a pool table. The staff is very helpful, warm, and friendly. It is not homey but certainly an adequate place to stay. I'm happy, and I’m satisfied with it.

Village Manor Retirement was nice. They were more updated. The staff was very nice, and I really enjoyed them. They were very welcoming and all that. The place is better than most. It's new and updated, but all of them are 800 - 1,000 square feet. They're all kind of small no matter what because my parents like a bedroom each to themselves.
I think if you wanted to live like in a condo type situation, totally independent of the community, you could. They have one restaurant. It was nice. They have some activities: arts and crafts, bingo, and movies. They also have people who come over and entertain the people.
The neighborhood was nice. It's just they all looked like institutional type structures. That's the drawback for most of these places. They were built near communities, and they're just too institutionalized. They have long hallways and mostly ground level. The apartments were floor one and two, nothing too high up.

I couldn't be happier than I am at Village Manor. This facility is attactive, clean and very well run. The amount of amenities/activities available is amazing. The rooms vary in size...I happen to be in one of the upgraded ones with lots of windows, and I love it. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. But best of all is the food. I have been impressed by all of the choices I have, and I have yet to find anything that hasn't tasted wonderfully. I've even learned to like some things I didn't think I would like. The chefs do an incredible job.

Village Manor Retirement is independent. If my father needs more assistance, we have to work with their medical care team. It was centrally located to my sister and I, and it was affordable for him. It was comparable to what he's living in, in Florida. We had a very good rapport and meeting with all the people that we met with. It was a very clean and very friendly place, and it just felt like home. My sister said she compared it to where he's at in Florida, and she said it's very comparable.
The main reason we chose it was the location, and it kind of met all our needs. The staff was excellent. The rooms were spacious and extremely clean. You would have a patio looking out on the gardens. It was very nice. The dining room was beautiful, and they had a smaller one next to it for breakfast. They had a library next to it and a very beautiful activity room. They had several private rooms you could use for parties or get-togethers. They had a company in there cleaning carpets while we were there. They keep up on that. It was very apparent. Everything looked really new and fresh.

They were very friendly at Village Manor Retirement. It looked like they had a lot of activities going on. That is where my friend actually felt most comfortable. He liked that one the best, and it looked really nice to me. His concern was he did not realize he would have to have furnishings and stuff, so that was gonna be a little bit of a hardship for him. That was his only drawback. The staff was very helpful and caring. I thought for him it would be difficult because it was two levels, but he did not seem to be bothered by that. Personally, that would have been my concern. They had elevators though, and it was very well kept.

We are so happy to hear this good positive feedback. If people have difficulty with availability of furnishings we may have suggestions and even items that have been donated by residents or family members. We are here to help. I will share the comments about our staff and the cleanliness of our building to all departments. They deserve all the credit.

I visited Village Manor Retirement, but I think it was too expensive. At Village Manor, everything was included: all meals, electricity, water, and stuff like that are all included in the price. The rooms were very small. They showed me a one-bedroom there. I could not possibly afford a two-bedroom because they were too expensive. The one-bedroom I thought was a little closet. The staff were good; they knew their stuff. There are several versions of the one-bedroom there. They had a little more expensive one, which had like a sunroom, and that was a nice place. They have a big restaurant-type place, and they have activities for the seniors like playing cards, games, and all that stuff. If you have the monthly income to afford it, that is a nice place to go. It is in a nice area; they have all kinds of stores around there.

I have moved into Village Manor. It's very safe here. There are no amenities because of the COVID. It's a beautiful place. Any open spaces? Yes. We can walk outside. There are trees and there's woods behind the facility. The staff members are excellent. The food is good; you have to eat in your room.
