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.

Lincoln Tower was pretty nice. They had multiple choices of food, so it wasn't just pigeonholed into one thing. They gave me lunch while I was there and the food was good. The apartment was nice. The staff was very helpful and they've stayed in contact with me since then. It's just an older place but it was kept up very well.

My friend has moved into Lincoln Tower. It is great and her apartment is really good. They have lots of activities, like bingo, games, ice cream social, as well as great food, puzzles, church services, and movie nights. Plus, they have an in-house cosmetologist that comes in, which is good. There are two libraries, a movie room, an exercise room, a chapel, a dining room, a craft room, a game room, a swimming pool and a jacuzzi. Food is super good, too.

I have moved into Lincoln Tower. It is pretty good. I have been here for over a month now, and I really like it. I have a spacious apartment; I moved quite a bit of furniture in there. I have a big, nice apartment with a living room, a kitchen area, a bedroom and lots of closet space. They do Wii bowling, dominoes, and cards. I don't do cards but they have a game night two or three times a week. Then they have a bus where they take you to the stores like Walmart or to doctor's offices. The food is very good. They clean the carpet before I moved in, but it still got a dirty spot on it. They said they were going to take it out and put new carpet there, but they haven't done it yet. I haven't had any problems with anybody here. The staff members are good. They all take very good care of everybody.

My mom loves Lincoln Tower. It's an older building, but it's very clean and well cared for. The staff helps out in any way possible, and the food is delicious.

Lincoln Tower was a little too dark. I know it used to be a hotel, but the hallways were dark and needed updating. It had an older feeling to me. The cafeteria was on a corner and was dark as well. We were able to see the menu, and it looked good.

I visited Lincoln Tower, and the staff was very professional, caring, and interested. The dining room was nice, and the rooms were very clean. They go to pubs on Fridays on a bus. Security is good as they assured me that there is someone there all the time.

I did look at Lincoln Tower and it is an old hotel that has been vamped. It was nice although I didn’t have any family members in the Odessa area. The staff kept in touch with me. I was able to see their apartment, and it was a nice place. I wanted a place in the ground floor because I have a dog, and they could give me that if that's what I wanted. I was able to try their food, and it was good. They have a nice dining area. I would recommend Lincoln Tower.

The staff was really good at the Lincoln Tower. They were very informative on what they have and what they provide. The facility was pretty nice with everything that it has, but the bathrooms had small doors.

I lived in Lincoln Towers for 13 months, and it was a pretty bad experience. We had some bad managers over that place. Some of the managers were so arrogant, and I hated to see that. There were foods that I sometimes would not eat. They were very strict about the timing of their meals, and as a result I missed a lot of meals.

My husband's grandmother is a resident of Lincoln Tower. So far it's fine. There?s no problems. The place is well-maintained. It's very clean. They have a lot of activities for the residents. They have art classes. They have beading classes, where they make necklaces. The staff is friendly. There are no complaints from grandmother. Her room is of comfortable space and has a small kitchenette. We?re satisfied where she's at.
