This is the facility of choice so far. Their nursing office on each floor and focus on improving residence quality of life is excellent. Residence were happy and engaged in activities and the facility was bright and clean.

We were given a great tour of the facility and grounds. We had a very elegant dining experience. We were served dinner and had a chance to dine with some of the residents and speak with some of the Staff. My Dad was quite impressed with this facility. We liked the fact that this Facility has Independent living, Assisted living and Long-term Care Units. This facility better suits our needs for Long-term Care planning. We like the fact that our dad will not have to be transfered to another facility if/when he becomes unable to care for himself.

Love this place! Residents are very 'upscale' which might intimidate Mom.

Loved this place and [staff representative]! We had a very good feeling for WTSL. My mother has friends at Voorhees Senior Living so that may have some weight in where we finally go.

We really liked Park Summit - this facility was our second choice. I felt very comfortable and I loved the atmosphere. Definitely got that warm and fuzzy feeling. The staff who we interacted with were great and the other residents were all very friendly. The reason we did not go with this facility was because they do not offer memory care. My loved one does not need that, but if she does down the road we wanted the facility to offer that just in case so we would not have to move again.

Overlook Green Senior Living is a beautiful community and it was the perfect place for our loved one for his end of life. The community was very clean and there were not fowl odors at all. The meals were great and they always encouraged families to come eat with their loved ones. The rooms were lovely and everyone was just so nice and friendly. He just loved it. He had been more active at Overlook Green then he had anywhere else before. The care was excellent, he was very well treated and it was just perfect for him. They get 4.5 only because the administrator never really engaged a conversation with our loved ones daughter who was cutting the checks, and when our loved one had passed there were no condolence's. However the administrator and the marketing team and there communication was one of the reason we chose Overlook Green. It is expensive but we do believe you get what you pay for

I would tell others to prepare to really do some research if your loved one is on a lot of medications. There are a lot of different services that they offer and a lot of decisions to make such as which doctors to use, which pharmacy to use, etc. It has been a very big learning curve for me. She is very happy and thriving here. The staff are extremely accommodating and friendly. I fell in love with the place the second that I walked in. We are extremely pleased and cannot imagine her being anywhere else. I would definitely recommend Tiffany Court at Kingston to other families looking.

Overall, we were very satisfied with this facility except for one issue with the business office. They were hard to work with after dad passed. They charged us for 2 months after he passed and their reason was that policy was to give 30 day notice before leaving the facility. We were frustrated, but mom paid it and then contacted corporate. Corporate did apologize and said that shouldn't have happened. They are in the process of getting mom a refund for those 2 months. So beware of that possibility. Other than that, the facility had a really good atmosphere and was clean. There were times when dad wanted to go outside, but couldn't go alone and they didn't have anyone to go with him to take him outside. My elderly mom ended up going up there more often to be able to get him outside. Housekeeping was good and dad's room was kept clean. Communication was good. The food was good. I do think it's the best facility in the area and I would recommend them to friends and family.

I thought generally speaking the staff took a real personal interest in the residents and made an effort to make connections with them. I would recommend Morningside of Charlottesville to others looking.

The main thing we were not happy with is that if something needs fixed, we cant find the maintenance man if there is one. Her door handle was loose and it took a while, but it is fixed. Also, we were told that we would be given a key to her room, and we've asked several times. The ladies are so kind at the reception area. We liked the Christmas family get together.

Our family had an in person tour and the tour was very nice it was our 2nd choice but at the time they did not have a first floor unit available

I thought The Forum at Lincoln Heights was an excellent place. It was very nice, but my preference was for a place with a casual nature, vs. the more structured/formal environment at The Forum.

This was our 2nd choice. The community was too far for family to visit our loved one.

They have a lot of listings and things for the residents to do. My loved one is not able to participate but there are many things for them to do. This community is clean and they take good care of the residents. Overall I have been very happy here at this community and their care for my loved one.

They have some very positive pluses: I have a full kitchen and a washer/dryer in my apartment. I don't know how I would function if I did not have those two items. On the negative side: there's no garbage disposal or dishwasher, although some of the apartments have those at an extra cost. I'm just doing the best I can within the parameters of my budget. My apartment is roomy and cheerful. And they shampooed the carpets, completely repainted, and had it all ready for me when I moved in. Maintenance is quite slow though. And there seems to be some short-staffing issues in several departments. However, when I imagine how little their profit margin must be, that's understandable. And my rent did not go up. So I think they're doing the best they can with what they have to deal with.

This community was okay and the person who did the tour was great. There was just another community that worked better for my loved one and was smaller.

Friendly staff; Nice neighbors; I know you're A Place for Mom, but dads like it too!

It has been a very good experience, the staff have been exceptional and gone above and beyond. They did a great job putting her on the floor that would suit her best. They have a ton of activities offered for residents to participate in if they want to. They have things going on all the time 7 day a week so there is a lot of opportunity. I really like that they have a free standing piano that people are able to play. They also have a room on each floor where people can mingle. They have outside seating available where residents can go outside and enjoy fresh air. The facility is 2 blocks away from the hospital and the medical equipment provider which is great. They are also close to 2 different supermarkets. I would definitely recommend them to others looking.

I would definitely recommend this community. It is clean and they are attentive. They are very positive, sunny bright and happy. Everyone's moods and attitudes also reflect this happiness. The food and dining is also excellent. The cost compared to other places locally is also affordable and better.
