Connect55 Plus

More value and personal choices than most. Nice apartments and affordable. The only place found that offered what I was looking for. Some of the other places were actually very frightening.

The facility is a great independent retirement option. There are a few issues at Shawnee facility: side security doors are not functioning and are kept open at all hours. It is a concern given increasing area criminal activities. When questioned about implementing security, replies assure the system will be fixed by “next month”. The problem predates years advanced of my becoming a renter per other renters.

I am glad that I moved here. The manager helped gave me the information to call and set up my utilities and cable accounts. There is an easy system to request maintenance assistance and they have responded within 24 hrs. Emergency maintenance is also available with a phone call. There are residents who have been here awhile and act as a goodwill ambassador if I have any questions. There is a gym and group activities for those who wish to participate and socialize with other residents

I really enjoy being able to live, travel, and know my neighbors, without being fearful of my home being in any trouble or lack of security.

I am a resident at Connect55 Plus Kansas City. I would recommend this facility to others. The place is clean and everyone is friendly. The staff is great. There are no meals here. Though, sometimes they have a potluck and some residents will come down. They have activities during the day for people who are home during the day. I haven't been to any.

I am currently a resident at Connect55 Plus Shawnee and things have been very good for me here so far. The cleanliness and friendliness are good. The staff, activities and value for cost are also good. The other residents and staff are friendly and the new manager is very good. I would recommend Connect55 Plus Shawnee to family and friends.

The residents here are very nice and friendly, also the apartments are really nice. I do think the value for cost is excellent, we have great amenities and a really nice fitness room.

I chose The Springs at Independence because of the security, to me it seems to be a very secure facility. Also the staff members are very friendly, especially the manager, she knows everybody name. I am very happy with my apartment size, they are very spacious.They also provide a washer and dryer in the units which has been very convenient. I would recommend, I am very happy here.

Eagle Crest and my mom has been a good match. She has been there almost a year now, and has settled in nicely. My siblings and I are pleased with the cleanliness, security and quality of employee's and residents. Mom had been living alone out of state and is glad to be here. She likes the no pressure to participate as much or as little she is comfortable with. Thank you to A Place for Mom for being available and so helpful with such an important part of life.

Steve Rothenberg was GREAT. He made us feel very comfortable. Very clean and tidy common areas. They offered us about 1 1/2 months free rent and free washer/dryer stack. 3rd floor apartment elevation eliminates traffic noise while using deck. Very small floor plan, 890 sq ft. We would have to give up wife's family heirloom furniture to fit in this apartment. Will need to see other places, as moving J in wheelchair was very tight.

Michael was extremely helpful and patient. The facility looks practically brand new! Dad seemed to really like the apts. after touring. The location is also very convenient.

We found Fairway Pointe to be very much every thing that we were looking for in an apartment for our senior years. It is a very clean, friendly and pet friendly complex. The outside is very nicely landscaped.

There is only one ramp and that's at the front door so it's challenging to people with walkers or wheelchairs because if they live elsewhere in the building, they have to figure out how to get there equipment over the curb everywhere else. They are slow repairing things sometimes. They only have elevators at each end of the buildings so anyone living somewhere in the middle has to walk a long way to the elevator unless they can take the stairs down or up. There is a. 30 pound limit on dogs. I will say that the apartments are pretty decent not a luxury hotel but they're decent.

I would probably not recommend. No maintenance person no bug service and the activities are not welcoming to new residents. However we love that everything is included in rent except electricity. The new manager is nice just has her hands tied with management. I picked them because they had a on site activity director, and a friendly manager.

Facility is cheaper than living in a facility that also has assisted living and serves meals. Some of us are not at that point yet. There was a push to fill the facility and a lot of incentives were offered. Now that we are almost full we don't know what changes ownership plans to make. The immediate staff of 3 are wonderful. Residents enjoy the activities and friendships made. However ownership is making changes regarding activities, and residents have little information. We anticipate more changes. I guess if I'd been wiser, I'd looked into who owned the facility, how they treated staff and residents and if the owners paid the expenses on time . A few are looking to move when their lease is up. There just aren't that many places where it is just independent living like we have.

The facility is not very clean. The common areas are not cleaned often or well. There are several items that have been broken since I moved in and are safety and health hazards. There are not handicap parking places by all exits nor are the curbs ramped for easy access except at front door. They seem to have trouble keeping a maintenance man. It is a nice facility and there are a good variety of activities.

The staff that they currently have are friendly and personable. There is no housekeeping for residents, we take care of our own living space. There are also no meals, they do have donuts in the morning every other Friday. These are apartments, not Assisted Living, so residents usually take care of their own needs. The residents are wonderful and supportive of each other's needs. I would recommend this facility based on that.

This place was nice but to expensive. They do not accept section 8.

The apartments are nice; however, the manager is extremely rude and has no people skills. I would not recommend the senior complex at this time due to the current on-site manager. In addition, there is absolutely no emergency plan in place if a family member cannot get in contact with their loved one.
