GenCare Lifestyle Tacoma at Point Ruston is a new place. The apartments were very nice. The food was great. The cafeteria was very nice. However, there was no place for a dog, and we have a dog. They showed us an apartment on the sixth floor, and I want a ground floor. It was an okay apartment. It was clean and nice, but it had no balcony, no patio, and no outside space. And I can't live in a box. We had lunch there, and it was very good. The people were very nice. The amenities were very nice. It's just the apartment itself was just an apartment. We have a house that has 14-foot ceilings and lots of glass, and there, I felt like I'm in a little box and I couldn't do it. There was no access to the outside, which was the big downfall, and the fact that there was no grassy area for the dogs. The staff were all very nice and very helpful. They took us around and showed us the swimming pool. The amenities were very, very nice.

My mom will be moving into GenCare LifeStyle at Point Ruston. The best things about it for my mom were the activities, the lifestyle, and the indoor swimming pool. Their staff members were very helpful. They're readily available. They have a great common space, a nice bistro, a nice open area for people to mingle, a theater, a nice gym, and a swimming area. I think the washer and dryer inside the unit were important too, because most of the places I looked at did not have them in the apartments.

GenCare LifeStyle at Point Ruston was very big and very luxurious in many ways, but they only provided two meals a day. It was much more expensive than the others, and so at that point, the price and the location were the deciding factors for that one. It's a new facility, so the rooms looked nice and they looked well maintained. The staff was pleasant. We only interacted with a couple of people there and they were fine. They just didn't look to be as accommodating as the folks at the other place we toured. People were coming and going, and it looked like an active place, but we didn't observe any organized activities.

We will be moving into GenCare LifeStyle at Point Ruston. The facility is excellent. It's almost brand new. It was only opened up just before the pandemic. The apartment is excellent. It hasn't been lived in yet, so we're the first occupants. We're going into a two-bedroom and two-bathroom. The staff members are fantastic. They've been very helpful and very welcoming. We talked with some of the residents, and everybody rated the food as excellent. They promote an active lifestyle there. So they have a swimming pool and a fully equipped exercise room with all the machines and so forth. They have a physical director who also serves as a personal trainer. We get up to three sessions with him a week. They have a movie room and an activity room. It's just a great modern facility.

The GenCare LifeStyle at Point Ruston facility is new, open, bright, and cheerful. The marketing people were very helpful and financially, it's a better situation than I had before. The food is very good, the amenities are varied and very upscale, I guess, that's a good word for them. I'm in their assisted living.

GenCare LifeStyle at Point Ruston was a very upscale place. It's brand new, everything was in great condition, they have a wonderful exercise facility and a swimming pool. It was very expensive. They have nice apartments. I looked at a 2-bedroom apartment and they're all new, so everything is new and the kitchen is nice and shiny. The dining area was very lovely, it's an open plan that's very neat and clean.
