We toured here. I chose that because it has quite a few assisted living amenities and is all included in the overall price, which is very good. The staff was excellent. They answered all the questions and even a few more that we asked. They took us to all sorts of studios and one-room apartments. They answered any questions we had about adjusting any elements of the room, like moving a refrigerator around to another location. They were very personable and very helpful. All in all, it was a very good tour, and they included Sunday brunch and it was very nice.

It is a smaller place. It's been in service for years, but it's nice, and you get your private room. You get to have a sofa in your room. They have a glass-top table, a refrigerator, and they have everything right there where you can be more comfortable. You could sit at a table if you want to eat in a room and have your own privacy and keep some of your own food there. I was there twice in a year. They have facilities to take you to the doctors, and they take you on trips. It has a huge balcony, and they have picnics every Friday when the weather permits. They have sofas and chairs, comfortable seating, and you can sit out there. The food is very good. I get along with everybody. When they know I'm coming in, the help always runs out, greets me, and hugs me. They're all wonderful to me because I treat them well, and they treat me well. I liked the rooms very much, they've got a beautiful dining area, a sitting room right off in the dining area, they've got a fireplace and a big TV screen and table set up where you can have family in and have your own private meal there with your family. They have a refrigerator there that you could share. They have cooking shows of people that are able to participate in, maybe making cookies or something like that. They had a Christmas tree at Christmastime, and everybody helped decorate it. They decorated according to all the holidays. For the ones confined to the room, they give you activity books, puzzles, crayons, pentel, and a paper case if you want to have notes.
