Holiday by Atria

Very nice. Lots of options for floor layouts, variety of entertainment, professional chefs with options for more than one main dish at each meal. Nicely located in the community. Reasonably priced.

The Essex House is great because there are staff that know their residents and they keep a watchful eye on the residents. So if your loved is mostly independent, BUT they need to have proper meals and to have a LITTLE supervision, Essex House is the place. We really like the availability of using washer and dryer without additional cost. Physical therapy available on the premises. The personnel that was there when we moved mom in were wonderful and interacted with the residents. Some of them have since retired or quit. Unfortunately their replacements are not as accommodating to the residents. Which in all fairness, it's a known fact that companies want the same quality with fewer staffing.

I have been mostly satisfied with my current situation, but I could be a little better if there was more food on my plate. Otherwise everything is fine now. 'Xxxxxxxxxxxxx. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The accommodations are excellent The staff is outstanding The meals are above average The activities and events seem to be numerous ................................ there are various options for apartments, etc.

We love the transportation and safety aspects, but there is no housekeeping in her room that we pay for monthly! And there is a no salt option on the menu.

the availability of the bus is great, but more trips would be so much better. like shopping at a mall, where you can go and do things. i personally would like to see something after dinner like an easy game.

The monthly rent cost is pretty high, but it is cheaper than a lot of other independent living facilities and is on point with the rental market prices in the Knoxville, TN area. The staff is friendly and they take time to get to know their residents BUT there does seem to be a lot of employee turnover. Move in process was pretty easy and they were accommodating of our time frame of when we could move in. The meals are pretty decent, but they can change with each chef that gets hired (different styles and quality). Housekeeping is wonderful, the facility itself is always clean and organized. The weekly light cleanings in the apartments are fantastic and they do weekly or bi-weekly inspections to make sure everyone and everything stays clean and safe. Communications with the family is pretty relaxed since I usually visit the apartments 1x/week myself, but if there is an emergency or change with the facility notification is sent out (ie, phones went down and emails went out to all residents and their families to let them know). I would recommend this place to others that are looking for a safe and clean place for their loved ones that can still care for themselves but need or want someone to keep a "watchful" eye on them.

My loved one is a resident at Holiday Manor at Woodside. I would recommend this facility to others.

Everyone there is very friendly. My Aunts apartment has plenty of natural light in it also. I think it might be her favorite part of living there

My loved one is a resident at Holiday Willow Grove and I would recommend this facility to others.

Overall, I am satisfied with my choice. There is room for improvement in the food and the activities, but I have found things that interest me.

I was very impressed with how they worked with me to get me in when I had no place else to go. Unfortunately there were some misunderstandings on my part that have created some problems, but they seem to be willing to work with me so far. I really haven't even had a chance to really get moved in completely, because as so often happens, after being told I would never come back to my mother's house, she needed someone to help her after her surgery, so I've had to spend more time at her house than my apartment. I'm looking forward to getting back next week, and unpacking my boxes. I was actually surprised that I found myself missing the people I had just met at the estates.

It was nice. Location set back away from main streets, but also easy to get to. Recent renovations were lovely. Grounds were carefully manicured and attractive. Offered a variety of room layouts. Many with balconies or patios. They allow residents to have cars. (Which was a determining factor for my father) there were separate areas to meet or gather in . Had small exercise room , hair salon, free laundry facilities on each level, honored Veterans.The other thing my father mildly complained about was the set mealtimes and uninteresting menu options.

my dad is very happy with the place. I do think his room is a little smaller than ideal for him. I know they have different floorplan sizes for each category. ( studio, one bedroom, two bedroom.) so it might be helpful to understand that upfront. It is a more rural location on the edge of Charlotte, which I thought was nice, but not so far from lots of things.

The people are friendly, the surroundings are beautiful, and the facility is very clean. They have 3 good meals every day! The apartment is a decent size! And the monthly rent is reasonable compared to others!

As for the food, more attention paid to everything from prep, quality and presentation would make a big difference in the dining experience for the residents that need and depend on it three times a day, everyday. That is one of the most important things, if not "The most important," event for them. Overall, I would recommend the facility to others.

My mom did not want to go there, she was scared and wanted to stay living with me. We didn't visit other places because Alexis Gardens is right around the corner from me. It didn't take long for my mom to find friends at the meals and activities. She gets involved it it all and LOVES it there. The staff is great!

From start to finish, working with the team at Holiday Regent was so helpful and friendly. The staff is genuinely invested in the well being of their residents. The process to get onboard was simple and straight forward.

The staff is exceptionally nice. Like any large large corporation, it has its issues and usually it takes the toll on middle and lower management. I see that. They try, but their hands are somewhat tied. The issue I have more than anything is that there are people there that belong in supervised care. Their families would rather put them there, out of sight out of mind. And to keep places rented and money coming in, it's accepted. The housekeeping is not what they promise, but I know they are also short of help. I would recommend the place. I think its pricey, but I certainly would recommend it to others.
