The visit at The Regent was good. They invited me for a lunch and the food was good. The staff was very helpful and very informative. They pay attention to what you're saying. They showed us a 1-bedroom that had a living area and a bedroom. They have a bus service where they can take you to your appointments.

The Regent was a nice place. The staff was friendly and attentive. The dining room looked nice. There were some exercise areas and a library. They provided housekeeping and activities that you can participate in.

The Regent is comfortable. My dad is living there right now. The staff members are friendly. Every time I have gone there, people are nice. They're great. It's a great location. I like the grounds. My dad's room pretty much has everything that is needed. The dining area is set up nice. The people who work there are attentive, kind, and easy to have conversation with. It's a perfect place for all the residents there. The meal is adequate. They give you choices. I think the price is good.

I really liked The Regent, but its $500 more a month than I have the funds for. They have a small studio that is $1350 a month, and it’s all inclusive. They do once a week maid service which I wouldn’t need, and you don’t have to pay utilities; there’s cable. The rooms would be perfect for me, it’s beautiful, and the people were wonderful. The residents that I met were just wonderful. We had lunch, and the food was outstanding; it was just as good as any nice restaurant. I felt like I should leave the lady the tip that waited on me. It’s not a cafeteria; it’s like a restaurant setup. I would recommend to anybody.

I liked The Regent. It was smaller, more moderate, and inexpensive. It was more like what we were looking for. For the inexpensiveness of it, the facility itself and what they offered, the cleanliness of the facility, and the niceness of the people, I thought it was very nice. The rooms were really nice but smaller. Some of them were on the ground floor where you could walk out, which is nice.

The Regent is OK, and the staff is pleasant. I have a large, nice studio apartment with a sink and a refrigerator. They offer bingo and have happy hour on Fridays.

The people at The Regent were very kind and invited us back for lunch; the food was very good. It was a very kind and gentle place. The rooms were very clean, and they had housekeepers if you wanted them.

Since Holiday took over the Regent, the graciousness of and quality of service has steadily decreased. The food is not very good. Poorly prepared, cheap ingredients, odd menu combinations. If you are at the end of the serving line, you menu items will likely be out. I would rate it at grade B cafeteria level food. ($4.00/day/resident) It is clear that Holiday considers Corvallis to be a lower priority because there are only two independent living residence and they own both. No competition. Very corporate business attitude with very little concern for the comfort or quality of life of their residents. They are chronically short staffed on purpose. They have no substitutes to call in, so residents frequently have to "be understanding" about their rooms not being cleaned, service being even slower than usual or the meal menu being changed to something that can be prepared by non-kitchen staff members. They shortened meal times to one hour (unlike the hour and half stated on the web site) to reduce payroll costs. Residents are expected to arrive at 8, 12, 5, late arrivals are discouraged because it causes more work. Staff are not allowed to work more hours as needed (unless, of course they are salaried, the resident mgrs have to pick up all the slack or the residents get short shrift.
The local staff are, for the most part, sincere, friendly and kind and do the best they can with the time they are allowed. Turnover is higher than it used to be (pre-Holiday).
Provider Response
Hi, I'm Katie - I work at Holiday Retirement's Home Office. First, let me say how sorry I am that you're having a negative experience at The Regent. Second, thank you for writing a sincere review. You pointed out several specific areas for improvement and I appreciate that- it's reviews from residents and their families that make us better. I've passed your review on to our Resident Relations department so they can investigate further and take action, but would appreciate it if you could call them as well, since you seem to have a very firm grasp on how Holiday can deliver a higher quality of resident service. Their phone number is 1-800-370-8331. Thank you, Katie

I thought The Regent was very nice, and the people were very friendly. The facility seemed quite adequate. It was great. It was not exactly what I was looking for though. The rooms and apartments were spacious enough. I was very impressed with it.

My wife likes The Regent. What she liked about it was it was practically across the street from Corvallis Hospital, and she was enchanted with the idea of possibly doing some community work there. It’s also down the block from a mall and a bank. That was the thing that turned her on. It’s an attractive community; it was presentable and neatly put together. It has free admission on buses for the senior citizens. The food was fine. However, 4/5 of their activities are more of the sitting stuff, like playing cards, watching a movie, listening to a speaker, arts and crafts, jigsaw puzzles, other board games, music, sing-a-longs, and bingo. They do not encourage muscle tone and blood circulation.
