Devonshire Retirement Village

My father-in-law picked Devonshire Retirement Village because it was the area he wanted. He's independent with some meals. Everything has been fine. His apartment is wonderful, all fresh and clean, painted with new carpet, etc. Because of COVID, they're not doing the activities, but he's as active as can be. I didn't taste the food, but he loves it. He said the meals are really good. The price is comparable to other places. If he didn't like the location, we could've gotten something that was a little cheaper, but that's not what he wanted, so we went with a little more expensive to get the location.

Devonshire Retirement Village was a little more expensive than other facilites. I saw a private room and they had all the facilities needed. They had activities. They want a $2,000 deposit just to accept the facilities, which was not refundable.

The tour at Devonshire was very good. We like the staff; they were friendly and knowledgeable. They have private rooms, bathrooms, and lots of activities. It was a good choice, but I was hoping for a lesser price, and I was hoping for closer to the house. The grounds were nice and appropriate.

We visited Devonshire for my mother. It seemed a really nice place, but they didn't have a definitive cost. They reevaluate the cost every few weeks, and the more care a person took, they kept raising the price, so they didn't have a set price. It was like there was no limit to how much it could cost. Nevertheless, it was a well-taken-care-of place. It didn't look like a nursing home; it looked like a nice hotel.
