I like Canterbury Inn because it feels like you’re in an actual home. They have a lot of fun activities for my grandparents. We’ve had great experience with the staff, so far. I would recommend this facility. The food at this facility is good.

I have talked to some people, and they have all been wonderful. Canterbury Gardens is one of the best communities, and it is a beautiful place. The people are really great. They’ve got a great nursing staff, and the people at the front desk were really kind.
It’s very well done and pretty. Although the price is a little high, you are getting what you pay for. It has a lot of things to offer for the elderly and the people that need assistance. The only complaint that my father has ever had is their menu. The food is fine, but some of the menu should be designed a little bit better for elderly people. The chef there needs to realize that they need healthy food, and they also need food that they can chew. The menu could improve as far as having better food for them to eat easily. They take care of you really well there, and they take tours all over the place, shopping, and out to dinner. They have bingo, they bring a minister in, and they play pool and billiards. They’ve got music and different talented individuals. They’ve got a beautiful piano, so they do have people that come to entertain. They offer a variety of things there. They’ve got a beauty salon and movies, and they’ve got a nice place if you have family gatherings.
My father has a regular room with a bathroom, and he seems to be content. The bathrooms are huge, and the room is nice. He has got a little microwave and a refrigerator. They have another unit across the street which is very nice for extreme Alzheimer’s and dementia.

The staff at Canterbury Inn was very nice, helpful, and showed us a lot of things. I saw what they’re eating, and it looked pretty good. There were apartments for two persons -- some were for one person -- and they were all very nice. They keep the place pretty well. They had an exercise room and a movie room that they show movies in a couple of times a week.

We moved into Canterbury Inn about 3 months ago. We moved here because they have nursing care at night. There are many places that don't have the nursing care at night. It's a little expensive, but the staff are awesome doing their job. At times, they have been understaffed, but they have hired enough people, and they seem to be back up to speed on that. My wife takes 3 different pills a day, and they're always right there. You can play many games. The food is like anywhere. I've actually been here so long it all tastes the same, but it's edible. They clean everything but your personal belongings. It's very much a homey feeling. It's really nice place. We have a 2-bedroom and a living room. It's well-spaced out, about 1,300 sq/ft. We got a big place. It's very well done.

Canterbury Inn couldn't be in a more beautiful location first of all. Seaside Oregon is right there on the Oregon Coast. The grounds are just lovely and residents seem to enjoy the picturesque views from each room. My mother has several friends living at Canterbury Inn. Each time I'm in Seaside visiting my parents, we always seem to make it over to Canterbury. I enjoy visiting with the residents at Canterbury Inn. The staff members are very kind and I love the way they greet each resident by name when they see them. There are many activities for the residents based on their own interests, as well as cognitive or physical abilities. It seems there is always something fun going on when we're there. I've also had lunch with my mother's friends in the Canterbury restaurant. I have to admit the food is very good! My mother has already informed me that at some point, she plans to move to Canterbury Inn, to enjoy spending even more time with her friends. I highly recommend this facility to anyone seeking a warm, caring environment for themselves or their loved ones
