We toured The Commons on Marice. The people are very pleasant. The facility is interesting. It has decent carpeting. What we didn't like about it was that it was mixed with independent living with assisted living, so it smelled bad. The views from the rooms were not very impressive. One of them was overlooking a heating duct. All the bathrooms were in the bedrooms, and I wasn't really big on that. The common areas were very pretty.

My dad lived at The Commons on Marice for about 3 years. He was very happy there until the end. He was familiar with everybody and worked out to be the best for him at that time, not knowing exactly how long he would be needing assisted living. It was a beautiful place. Everybody was caring and he was happy there. They took great care of him towards the end. He moved from a one-bedroom independent into the studio type of assisted living room on a different floor where assisted living was. The staff was really good. They were very friendly and very helpful. They had a lot of musical performances on their stage. They had weekly malt days where you go down and get yourself a malt, and entertainment and cocktail hours every week. They had movie days. They had veteran affairs meetings and church services. There were quite a few different activities he could be involved in if he wished to be. They also had a nice big library.

We went to The Commons on Marice. The general area was absolutely gorgeous and very, very pretty. The hallways, the carpeting, and everything were beautiful in the common areas. We saw one or two apartments, but they needed to be updated. The microwaves sat on the counter, they weren't installed, and there was very little counter space. There was no underground parking. The person who showed us around wasn't even aware of how much parking they had, and the cars were all parked in the street. The apartments really needed some updating, which he said had begun to be done, but we did not see those. I would give them a 2 only because of not having parking near the building, and you have to go out to the street. The apartments were extremely old, and they didn't have washers and dryers in the apartments. You share them on one floor. The staff who toured us around was very kind, but he didn't know the answers to a lot of our questions. I saw that he wrote them down, but he never got back to us with the answers to those questions. He was in training, and he made that clear in the beginning. They had a beautiful courtyard in the middle of the whole thing. It looked like the building just circled the whole courtyard. There were flowers and trees in the courtyard, and it was beautiful. There was a waterfall when you came in, and it seemed to me there were fish in that little pond indoors. It was beautiful.

We liked the apartments at The Commons on Marice. We saw two of them, one on the upper floor (for those who don't need any care), and the other one was on the bottom floor (that was more if you needed extra care). They were really simple, but the decorations were kind of old-fashioned. I didn't like it. I'm more into modern stuff, but my parents would've loved that style. They had a hair salon (that wasn't open at the time) and a very small workout area. We talked to Paul and he was nice. The only issue I had with them was the billing. Everything was a la carte then it got confusing. Another one was that parking was non-existent at the time of our visit. We had to park on the street and walk up to the building.

The Commons on Marice was very opulent, and it was a place that when I'm ready to move, I would move there for independent living. It was very nice and it was something that even I, who don't need any services, would be content living there. It was older and the reason we went to look at that was because I have a friend who has had his mother and his aunt and a friend there already, and was just so impressed with their care that he thought I should see, and I agreed. It was great, but it would've been about $1,000 a month more than what we're paying at the other place. It was very well appointed and it just was very nice. The staff was very accommodating and very helpful, and tried to make it work for us as far as they could. They were very kind and answered all our questions. They met with us a number of times, and they were willing to meet with us and talk some more. They sent a meal home with us so we could sample it. They sent lasagna dinner for two home, a bottle of wine, garlic bread, and tiramisu dessert, and I thought that was a real nice touch. It was delicious. They had a quaint little bar area, which was a nice place to just go and talk and sit, because it gave you the feeling that you have gone out to someplace special. Their gathering areas were very garden-like and also made you feel like you were actually going someplace.

I went to The Commons on Marice. I like that they have a wide variety of services both for independent living and assisted living. It's very upscale, with new furnishings, new wall coverings, and flooring. Very, very nice, beautiful, beautiful campus. And the thing I'd probably like the least would be that the amount of services that you can take a la carte before going to an assisted living status is kind of limited. They were very knowledgeable, offered me things to think about that had not occurred to me yet.

The Commons on Marice was a nice place, but it was too big. I wanted my mother to be in a place where she got more individual care. She's 99, and she still walks, so I wanted somewhere that people were still ambulatory. It was clean, but it was more like an institutional-style building. The staff was good and nice. The caliber of people, most of whom were in wheelchairs. I know they have a library and a place where they could do different stuff.

The people at Commons on Marice were very nice, and the facility was nice, but it wasn't what we wanted. It's a month-to-month rental and we weren't quite looking for that. The person who took us around was very nice. I have no complaints. The apartments were nice, but they didn't meet our needs. They were a little bit too small for us. The place looked fine. The staff during the tour did an excellent job. We did not spend much time there. When we discovered that their largest units were smaller than what we wanted, I didn't explore them more carefully.
