The Blake by QSL Management

My mom thought the people who she met there were extremely nice however thought the facilities needed updating.

Gracious reception, attractive approach to the facility, and pleasant, well-prepared meal, but not our top choice.

Too Expensive - they want $4200 per month.

Mgt staff doesn't communicate with each other. Multiple calls to confirm same appt. Manager seemed unorganized & distracted during our interview. Rooms were smaller with only kitchenettes. Lobby was cold. Felt I got more for my money elsewhere.

This place looked nice enough during my tour, but the saleswoman and staff were a big turn off. They seemed generally unfriendly, and the saleswoman was very pushy. She didn't answer my questions to my satisfaction, and kept referencing I could find out if I moved in, and that they had a special if I moved within 30 days. No thanks.

They are kind of expensive, and way too huge.

It wasn't the greatest atmosphere and the food there was really bad actually. The only cottage they had was right close to the highway and we didn't like that.

They don't have a kitchen inside their apartments and they're higher than Dunwoody

It's alright, I mean, I like it here a lot, there are some issues, meals, the chef is totally out of it. We were having good meals and then I think it went straight to his head and the managers now are so bad, these are all new issues but at the present I couldn't recommend it to anybody. The management has no idea how to handle it, I love my unit and the maintenence man who takes care of it is just fine but there's rumors that he may be moving too. The activities are great, should the activity leader leave we'd be lost, there'd be nothing here. There's a difference between what corporate expects of sales and what actually happens, she gets you to sign the line and then hands it over. If you were to speak to other residents they would say the same thing, as soon as they get it together they lose it again.

sounds like a nice place but have a minimum 90,000 life care contract

since my friend moved in on July 6 there's been a worrisome turnover in managers. . My experience with them so far is that they've been either rude or unhelpful. No toilet paper in the room on two visits so I brought my own. No one has been in weekly to clean as promised. Huge water puddle outside the door that must be a leak because it never dries up so the carpet is ruined. On the positive side is that the food is good and served on time. My friend reports that there's lots of activities. Pleasant atmosphere and the residents seem happy.

I have been disapointed with Deep Woods failure to provide a wheelchair accessable bus for my loved one there so they can participate in bus accitivies(shopping,Christmas light tour,etc.).I was also shocked to learn that no one on staff has had even basic CPR training and choking assistance training. Food is acceptable but a dietician on staff or available to review special diets for residents would be helpful.

everything included-meals

the facility was beautiful inside and out. the food and dining room was wonderful. the people were very nice. only problem i had was staff was so pushy about getting us to sign right then. we kept telling him we couldn't make a decidetion right then but he kept pushing. this facility is still not out of the question.

Private pay - no medicaid, veterans assistance.

All in one bldg and too expensive.

3 months free, independent and assisted living on site.

Both Managers were very welcoming and accomodating to take Mom and I on the tour. Very nice and clean location. The staff seemed friendly and most residents acknowledged Mom and I during the tour. We got to stay for lunch which was nice. The rooms we saw were nice. Since this facility includes all three meals, it may be outside Mom's budget.

This is the right size for us. High rise building. Also good location, great services. But the building was built in the 70s, the apartments are poorly laid out with dreadful kitchens. However, it's on our list of acceptable places so far.

This one seems to fit our needs
