Holiday Lincoln Tower

Linda

I chose Holiday Lincoln Tower for myself because my only child lives in this town. It's beautiful. They take care of meals and everything I need. I had a sample of the meal, and it was great. They had a chef. The staff members are very friendly. They have a lot of activities. They take you anywhere you want to go on the bus. They have lots of activities planned. Last night when we were moving stuff, I don't know what they were doing, but there was an activity and I saw them all grouped. It was a group activity. They have housekeepers come and change your linens once a week. They make your bed, and they vacuum and stuff like that. I'm not sure about everything yet because I'm still in the middle of moving. I will have a safety button if I need help at any time. They're on-call all the time for help if I need help. They have lovely little apartments. They have food and they have an exercise room. They also steered me in the right direction for the VA to help me a little bit. This will take some time, but I happen to be an eligible VA spouse. And that helps a lot.

I did a tour of Holiday Lincoln Tower. The staff was very welcoming and very willing to meet what I was looking for. I remember that there was a pool, and it was very nice. They also had a bar. It was a senior living community, and it wasn't what I was looking for because I needed assistance. But it was very attractive to someone that was looking for that type of community, maybe selling their house, and being among people like their age and together as a group. It was very nice.

I went to look at the Holiday Lincoln Tower. The community looked very well organized and clean. The model room that they showed me was very nice, so I was impressed. Everything looked very good and well kept. The dining area looked very good and had quite a bit of room there. The staff was very well informed and accommodating.

I'm gonna move into Holiday Lincoln Tower. I liked the studio apartment they showed me. I thought it had plenty of room. I liked that it had a little kitchenette. Some of the tenants, while I was touring, came up and told me how well they liked it. I liked the amenities they offered. I liked the building. I know it's an older one, but I was familiar with it from when I lived here in Odessa, and I knew what it was like when it was a hotel. Now, they have independent living and have all the former guestrooms turned into apartments. I saw one on the first floor that had plenty of room and I liked it. It had the kitchenette and the furniture I intend to move will fit in there. They had a really good offer. I just really liked them. They serve three meals, and then they have snacks like fruit, cakes, and different things that they keep in their entrance to the dining room, so I will be free to go get snacks all the time. They have a shuttle service that will take me to my doctors' appointments. I will be able to use the shuttle service even to go to the grocery store or the mall if I wanted to shop. Between now and the time I move in, they'll continue to let me know their social stuff. They have a library there if I want to read. They're just across the street from our county library. They're close to the hospital where they have a lot of the doctors' offices where I have appointments. They're close enough that I have a mobility scooter that I can have there. They have room for me to park it outside my apartment, and I can keep it. I like the location. They have wi-fi, they have a swimming pool and a jacuzzi. I liked everything. It was nice and clean. The apartment they showed me was clean. They have a maid service that will come and clean the studio apartment once a week. They also provide linen service where they provide the sheets, the towels, and the washcloths, and they will wash those for free. For my own clothing and my own linens, they have a free washer and dryer there that is available for me to use. I just have to provide all the soap. I was invited for lunch today and to have their banana split social. The only thing I didn't care for is that they don't have a selection where you can tell them what you want to eat. I didn't look at the menu, but I looked at it on their website and it sounded like all the food is the food I like. I don't have a problem with what the dining room will serve. I also have a kitchenette that has a little stove, a microwave, and a refrigerator. Some residents use the free delivery service for groceries and if I want to order a steak from our local fancy place, I can get that delivered. It's a welcome deal where my friends and family can join me for lunch. It's like $5, so I can pay that or they add it on and I can pay them weekly or monthly if I have a guest. They had a special going on where they were waiving a lot of their application fee and the community fee. I can pay on the day that my Social Security pays, and they were very accommodating about that. I liked everything about it and I went ahead and made the decision to accept their monthly offer.

My in-laws will be moving into Lincoln Tower. Everybody was very welcoming. It was really an atmosphere of friendliness and acceptance. They immediately started talking to my father-in-law. They showed us the model room and the room they had reserved for both my in-laws. We had one concern with something, and they immediately addressed it and are going to put them in a different room due to mobility reasons. They have been very, very accommodating, and there's very good communication. The rooms were cozy. They're not super big, but they're perfect for what they need. Everything looked to be in pretty good order. They were doing a bingo game while we were there. They mentioned that there was going to be another activity afterwards. We had lunch there, and it was really good. I was very impressed. It's better than expected. The dining area was clean and inviting. The people were nice.

I have moved into Lincoln Tower. It has a reasonable price, and they have good food. They have restaurant-style eating. The rooms are small, but then they're probably big enough for a single person. There's a beauty salon in here, it gives haircuts. They do play cards and dominoes. They have a couple of card games they do play. Their staff is friendly. They have trouble keeping staff.
