Solstice Senior Living at Bellingham

Solstice Senior Living at Bellingham is a lovely place. We like it very much and that is our first choice. It was like a hotel where you live there and they feed you and house you, but you can do anything you want, and they'll drive you around. Everybody there looked very lively and talked with us, and they were all outside their rooms doing things. It was a good place. It's on a busy road, and it is an older building, so it's not fancy, but that's good in a way. The staff was very friendly, very helpful, and very patient. For us with a dog, it was a big plus that they had a little patio area where you could sit outside.

I toured Solstice Senior Living at Bellingham. The staff was very friendly. The residents were really nice and friendly. I looked through the menu and it was great. The only thing that I did not like was that the room on the first floor looked old, dark, and it had an old smell. It was not cozy. But I saw one of the rooms on the third floor with lots of windows, and it was nice. Everything else was great. They had nice activities. There was somebody playing the piano. Some residents were playing cards and they were all sitting around talking with each other.

Solstice Senior Living at Bellingham was very nice. We were shown a couple of different apartments and they were all very nice. The only problem that we had was that they don't take Medicaid. They had a studio there that had a kitchenette, a room for the living area, a nice bathroom, and a nice bedroom. The only problem with the bathroom was that there was a bathtub, and you had to step over into the bathtub to get in to take a shower. Otherwise, it was very nice. They had a nice sliding door out onto a patio. They showed us another room upstairs that didn't have a kitchenette. It was just a bedroom, a bathroom and a sitting area, but it was very nice and it was more affordable. It's something that we might go back to see. The staff during the tour was very helpful. She gave us all kinds of good information. I appreciate that. I didn't associate with very many staff, but the lady that gave us the tour was very, very good.

Solstice Senior Living at Bellingham was nice across the board. I only saw one room. It had good storage. It was on the first floor, so it wasn't as bright as I'd like it to be. It could have used an extra window. The advantage was there were no stairs or elevator. The rest of the building was lovely. The staff was excellent. They were very informative and very personal. It was clean, tidy, and had nice views. I liked that they had street signs, so that you could actually walk a block and get to a coffee place or to a little grocery store.
