Definitely 4-star!

Parents have been here for over three years. Minimal complaints, lots of compliments. Let's get the negative out of the way. Parking is inadequate. Moderate staff turnover can be difficult on this population. **Annual price increases are too high, even for the high level of services provided. Food is above average in quality and variety. Beautifully manicured landscape, centrally located to shopping, medical care, and uptown. Pets are welcome to visit or for a fee, to stay. Active resident council. Wide variety of activities offered from Wii tennis and bowling to Bridge and Tai Chi to performances from various community groups. Holidays are celebrated with the glamor of New York City and families are invited to attend almost all events from picnics to German Polka bands, to a cappella groups. Valiant efforts are made to contain the inevitable viral outbreaks within the facility. Wish they had room to offer all levels of care instead of just independent and assisted living.

Many of my family members toured the facility and were very pleased with everything we seen. We didn't see any of the residents engaged other than watching TV and sitting around the Dining table ready for another activity. We must have came to the facility between activities. We did notice that the furniture was old. Otherwise, we were all impressed with the work the staff does with the residents.

Short stay, but a very nice place

My loved one was only here for a brief time, but I'd say our short experience was a positive one. The facility was well kept and clean, and the staff all seemed very friendly and caring. We ended up needing to move her because Atria does not offer the level of medication management she required, but it is definitely a very nice place for those not needing that service.

Seemed like a nice place

We toured this community when we were looking into care options for a loved one. I thought this was a nice looking place overall, but I don't think it would have been a good fit for my loved one. It just seemed a little too large and institutional, and our loved one is more the small quiet place with a garden type.

The extra charges are what kept me away.

I almost chose them, but anything you wanted there was an extra charge, and would go up monthly. There were up to 2000 extra dollars worth of charged that could be incurred in a month. Nobody could tell me who made that decision of when you would get charged and for what. They were already the same price as the one I did end up choosing that was all inclusive.
