Holiday by Atria

It's ok. Not top of the line but they do try. My parents complain about the food. Way too much salt. They do seem to have a more permanent cook. They just remodeled and everything is nice & clean.

I find this a very friendly, homely place to live. Since I am an interevent. I join in with cleaner that appeal to me you are not force to do other than.

The staff are really nice. I do not like rugs, in my room because of my allergies and my asthma. Just wish room was vacuumed better.

For the most part, I enjoy living here however I find many of the meal are very poor quality. (not worth the [fee removed] a meal)! But some of them are great.

Turnover in manger GM, AGM, cook Sale Director, Activity Director- Also Servers in last 4-5 mos. Tonight's meal (pork noodles, no pork noodles) Quality of food ie cheap sandwiches staff now very friendly and help fall.

Meals could be better, especially in the evening. Overall they aren't too bad furniture needs to be cleaned or updated combating ouch do better.

It's a very lively place. If you want to go somewhere to die. This is not the place. Let me tell you they living life to it's fullest and I love it and so grateful for redwood retirement. Apartments have way more space then we thought. My dad has a one bedroom and a small kitchen-et. Which is great for when he has company he can offer his guess drinks or a small snack. They were even accommodating enough to put him a ramp outside his door that leads outside.

I would recommend. They are good and caring.

Burlington Gardens is such a cozy and welcoming place! The staff are super friendly and really go above and beyond to make everyone feel at home. The place is always clean, and the meals are great—tasty and varied! They have lots of activities to keep everyone engaged and active.

I think the community had a lot of positives, but I was worried about dad's safety. With only one elevator going up and down and most of the people on the second floor not able to get out during a fire. There would've been a lot of issues. Had there been an emergency such as that. Staff was qualified and friendly and helpful. Food was really pretty good, just not always the healthiest. They did great for being such a busy place. The cleanliness was kind of isolated at times when they did not have enough housekeeping staff. I think they have corrected that now. The staff would always go out of their way to help my dad with different things like transportation, helping him get to doctors appointments, making sure he got the food that he ordered, also providing a place for me to stay when I visited from out of state. The residents were awesome! I think the activity Director did a good job of gathering the community together for different events.

My dad needed some medicine maintenance but otherwise was healthy. I liked the social aspects and felt he would do very well there. The other options seemed too "nursing home ish".

I would say 'check it out!'. It's a positive place, friendly, eager to please, reasonable enough, with good people, both staff and residents. It's defined a different way to live.

Overall I am very pleased with Holiday Valencia Commons. The staff are caring and helpful to my mother. Her onsite caregiver side is fantastic ([facility removed]). The food is top quality. Mom is in a newly-renovated room so the carpet and paint are nice. Maintenance is quick to respond if there is a problem although parts orders seem backed up with the suppliers. Spectrum tv reception is excellent and there is a hair salon on site.

Overall the residents are friendly but some people stay in a click and don’t let people in. The food could be better and not always hot. Residents have said things have changed they used to have good food and more activities. They lost their bus driver and activities director are gone so that makes things difficult.

Warburton is well maintained, but the advertise stuff like yoga & Taichi which they do not provide. Food is just okay. The sales person said that it would probably be okay that we donate couple cabinets & a treadmill to Warburton, but that was a big NO from the manager. Staff are generally friendly, but in the dining room I felt like I was the "new kid on the block" with some of the older residences. I was never the popular kid in high school, if you know what I mean. So all in all, I think it is worth it.

This community was chosen for me. I do love the location. Meals are not made for senior citizens: too many carbs, not enough vegetables (when vegetables served you are lucky to get a tablespoon full). Maintenance for individuals is great. Windows and patio could be cleaned more frequently.

The building is very nice as are the apartments. The residents are so friendly. There are many activities. There is transportation to stores and doctor appts. Our only problem has been with management. Prices discussed verbally, original contract “lost”, different price on bill… Everything did finally get worked out but several hours on the phone and time off work. PT, hairdresser, dining staff all are wonderful!

We picked this community because it seemed like a good fit for my dad. Plus, ultimately, he picked. I recommend it to others.

Checked a lot of boxes in my search for a retirement community. Good location, great set of activities, and a varied meal menu. Rooms were a little tight on space.

Need to rotate servers.
