Elderwood Residences at Cheektowaga is really clean and nice. The service provided by the staff is good, but it could be better. My parents have food delivered to them, but they also go out to eat, and they say the food is really good. My mom can get hair done at their place because somebody comes in and does it. Their apartment is really good, it has two bedrooms, a big kitchen, living room, and a bath and a half. It also has a washer and dryer, refrigerator, and a stove.

Elderwood Residences at Cheektowaga was very good. The place was as nice as it could be and I had no problems with it. The staff seemed to be very accommodating. The menu looked good. The rooms were minimal, but sufficient. They had a nice little schedule of entertainment and things to occupy the people. The independent living was gorgeous and very nice. They had a calendar of activities. It's inclusive, like the dental work is taken care of and if you need rehab, they have it right there on the campus so it makes it a one-stop-shop.

We chose Elderwood Village for my mother because she had rehab there before and we're happy with it. It's a company that we liked, plus she worked for them a while back. She also liked the people there and everything worked out for her. Other than nursing care and rehab, they have a whole assisted living place there as well as independent living. My mother only does breakfast since she's in the independent living level. The staff that I have dealt with personally are very good. It shows that they have a lot of experience dealing with people in that age group, and it's important for them to let people feel or keep a lot of their dignity. That's a good thing.

Elderwood Residences at Cheektowaga was a very nice facility. It was very well-kept. The apartments were very nice. I was relatively surprised. They have a community center that gives people opportunities to take bus rides and go to different events. They also have events that happen there, like car shows and different things. I didn't go into a whole lot of detail with them, but based on never seeing anything else and just my own house living experience, the facility was quite excellent. The staff member was pleasant and knowledgeable, they provided me with a lot of information, and she took her time. It was a pleasant experience.

Elderwood Residences at Cheektowaga had patio homes for independent living, and that really impressed us. The big advantage for us would be the garage attached to the house. They serve breakfast, have transportation available, and do get-togethers. I met two of the staff, who were both excellent.
