We liked it because it had a very warm and homey feel to it. The staff was very involved and in tune with what the residents were doing. I appreciated all the help that everybody gave me. Everybody was very friendly, and it felt like a very comfortable place to be. The room is a double room that shares a bathroom and kitchenette area.

It impressed me for my mom. I like their approach to dealing with their memory care residents and the fact that they acknowledge that people tended to hoard. And there was a beautiful little cabinet with colorful balls and flowers where the residents were free to collect these colorful items, and they would go into the rooms and recollect them later at night and put them back in these drawers. They also don’t lock their rooms; they respect the resident’s wishes to be able to go in and out of their rooms. I like Sunrise. It was a little busy and a little crowded but full of light. They did not have any openings at the time.

We were very pleased. The staff was very pleasant, and they have a dog and a cat on staff. It is just very homey, and they have a dining room when you first walk in that is set up like a café. Then they have the main dining room where they can go and sit at, the main sitting rooms, and the game rooms -- it is set up like an old Victorian home. They've got a porch with rockers, and they have the different options for rooming for my mom. She probably would have a microwave or a kitchenette, but they have those options. She can have a roommate or not have a roommate, or have a suite and have two bedrooms in it. It was a very nice setting and a nice facility in a very nice area. I really do like it, and we will probably be utilizing this facility. It was also very clean.

It's been a year since I moved in. I have a wonderful apartment with a living room, a bedroom, and bathroom. I sit at the dining table with three very wonderful women. The food is pretty good, and there is always something that you could eat. If you don’t like the food on the menu, you can always get a hamburger or a cheese omelet. There are always many choices available. They have a lot of activities, and just today we had musicians who sing songs and played the piano for us. We also have different games too. We also have movies, and then we also take walks. They have a lot of special activities. I find the staff to be extremely competent. I have the same two people with me every morning, and they can get me showered and dressed.

I am here for almost two weeks now. It is my choice because it is close to where my family lives and they offer all the services I need. What I like best in this facility is the level of care. I'm in a wheelchair and I need a lot of care. The staff bends over backwards to accommodate me. They give me as much time and attention as I need. My apartment is wonderful. The meals are very good and the offer too many desserts.

I was looking for an assisted living facility for a friend when I visited this facility. We chose this because it's convenient for my mom to visit her. They're very easy to deal with. They're accommodating and very nice. Their rooms are modern, plain and ample in size. They have a very nice and good quality dining room. The facility is clean and new. They have activities every afternoon.
