Commonwealth Senior Living at Willow Grove (Formerly The Landing At Willow Grove) was more hospital-like and much, much smaller, which I didn't think was really gonna benefit my father. We didn't spend any time there other than the visit. The staff was too salesy. There was a lot of sales pressure, and I didn't like that. The rooms were a little bit stark, not real cozy, and not very homey. It didn't have a good feeling for me. They have a lake there and it's rare to find a lake at an assisted living facility, but it just wasn't what I thought it was gonna be. I can't really speak about the amenities. I didn't think it was a good layout that was really conducive to making people feel at home. It felt more like a hospital the way it was laid out. I didn't really like it.

We saw the Landing at Willow Grove. It was the nicest facility we saw, it's on a little pond, visually it looks great, and the staff was extremely friendly. It was the most costly. The dining room was beautiful, and everything about it seemed first class. They seemed to have a lot of interaction with the residents, there's crafts to keep them busy, they had a community room where people can watch TV, and a quiet room where they can go and calm down. It was the ideal location, the rooms were beautiful, the view was beautiful, and the dining room was like in a restaurant. It's a very welcoming place, too.

The Landing at Willow Grove was very nice. If you want to spend a lot of money, the upper-level rooms were very large and very nicely done. They have a hair place, they take the residents shopping, they have all kinds of activities, they have a program going on, and they even have something to entertain the residents when we visited. It was very nice. Overall it was very nice and pretty, outside was nice lake. The staff was very friendly, polite and very accommodating. The residents all seemed happy watching the show, they seemed content. They have different levels of room prices, and everything was a la carte there. So giving medicines or doing laundry was an additional cost, so it's a little expensive although the meals are included. The building was relatively new and seemed well-kept.

The Landing at Willow Grove had beautiful scenery on the outside. The hallways though were very narrow. When we got off the elevator, the first smell I got was the smell of urine, which kind of put me off. The rooms were OK, but there's nothing really fancy about it. The room sizes were fine, but nothing jumped out at me. The food was good, but I didn't see a lot of co-mingling of the residents in the dining room, which seemed odd to me. They weren't talking to one another and there was no chatter.

The Landing was very lovely, had everything we're looking for when Mother needs memory care, and the location was extremely convenient. The price was affordable, but the second time we visited, we were heavily pressured to sign a contract, and the woman we met with called no fewer than seven times.

The Landing at Willow Grove was very nice. They were doing a lot of constructions around it, and I just thought that it was overly busy. The facility itself was lovely. Their dining room was nice. There were a lot of people that seemed to be very happy to be there. The woman that took us around was very helpful. The placed seemed lovely, and the room we were looking at was sufficient.

We liked The Landing better. We thought it was nice. The rooms were bigger. It seemed like a little older as far as the décor, but they were fine. The activity room was fine. They had a library. The bathroom was wider. The price was OK. They told us about the activities, and they seemed to have good activities. Their hair salon seemed good. They were making improvements on some of the areas. They were doing more construction for memory care. So, they were enhancing the facility. The food menu seemed very good.

I liked the pond at the back of The Landing at Willow Grove very much. The people who did the tour were very efficient and knowledgeable, and they actually seemed very caring of the older people there. All the caregivers in the facility stopped and spoke to me as I walked through, so it was a very personal tour, and I felt very comfortable there. The room we got for my father overlooks the pond so he can see ducks and swans. It's very clean, modern, has a carpeted floor, you get a key and the bathroom is updated and has a lot of safety so he won't fall. They give you a pendant to go around your neck so if anything happens, you just have to press that, and you don't have to wait for somebody to just come to your room. They will immediately know where you are, and I was very impressed with that. I took my father, and he also liked it. It's not a big facility. It's fairly small, and I like that as well. I just wish it was closer to where I lived.

The Landing at Willow Grove was pleasant and welcoming-looking. My friend has moved in there. They have Bingo, trips, bus service to doctors' appointments and supermarkets, and 3 meals a day. I thought it was a nice place, and the person who helped me was very helpful, welcomed all questions, and provided in-depth information.

Our experience at The Landing at Willow Grove has been positive. They've been responsive to questions. I've had 2 phone calls from their on-call doctor regarding Mom's medication and stuff. The table in the room didn't work one day, but within 2 or 3 hours, it was fixed. The people are friendly. Whenever I go there, my mother seems engaged if she's not in her room. I think the staff is very respectful and responsive, and I wonder how they stay as professional as they do.

The only one that I liked and what I saw was the Landing at Willow Grove. They were wonderful, and if I had to put my father someplace, this is where he will go. The lady was really nice, and she showed us around. My dad was disappointed that at lunch all they had were sandwiches. It was very clean and friendly. They had a lakefront view. If they had a swimming pool, it would be fantastic, but it needs a swimming pool. They serve three meals a day.

We liked The Landing at Willow Grove because of the location. I thought the place was nice. It was the most inexpensive one but worth the money, for sure. It overlooked a lake with geese in it, and the dining place was all glass so you can look outside. They had a dog that lived there, and I find that cute because dogs are good for the elderly.

The Landing at Willow Grove was a good place, and I liked it. What I did not like about it was that it was multi-floor, so the residents had to take an elevator. The room was good, and I liked the size. I liked the dining area, which had a nice view overlooking a lake. The amenities were sufficient. The staff was helpful and friendly. They had a companion dog in the lobby for the residents. The value for the money was fair. It was in a good location.

The Landing at Willow Grove was assisted living and personal care and small, which was nice. I thought he would like that one. The rooms were nice and a little larger than usual. The dining room was very nice. They had a little cafe and a dining room that looked over the water. It's close to everything. Whatever you need was right there. It's a very pretty little place with a lot of choices for food and a pool table area and a library. It's very nice, and the price was very good and reasonable.
