United Plus Property Management

Very nice views from this high-rise but not really my mother's style. The tour guide was good and it was very organized.

One of the four facilities I favored. Many residents were younger seniors, and costs were somewhat less than many of the other facilities. Had most of the usual amenities, with some services provided at an additional charge.

I toured here when looking for a place to live and just from the short time that I was there, they were nice. The director that took me on the tour was able to answer my questions and was knowledgeable about the facility. As I recall, the community itself was very attractive, though there weren’t that many amenities available. I was looking for something a bit closer to my family and places that I volunteer at so that was one of the only reasons why I didn’t choose them.

My mom is extremely happy. There is plenty for her to do. She enjoys the staff and the other people who live there. She is having the time of her life. I am glad that we finally made the move. I would definitely recommend The Lodge at Bridgemill to anyone. Everyone has been very friendly and welcoming. This is a really nice community. I am glad that my mother is happy here. It has been a reallt good experience.

Schaffer Heights is a great match for my Mom. We were very happy with bldg staff and how easy it was to get everything settled to move her in right away. The building is very nice, the apt. is very cute and just the right size for a one bedroom. Catholic charities and office of the aging is right in the building so it is easy to set up services like transportation. They also offer cooked meals( for a charge) a few times a week. The meals are great and large portions. The rent is affordable and the staff is very friendly.

This is a great place and great location for them. They have selected this location to live.

My parents have lived here for a few years now. Schaffer Heights has a full calendar of in-house and off site events, buses to two major grocery stores, monthly trips to area malls, and a community room for movie night and social events. An in-house food service sells and delivers wonderful hot meals twice a week and offers a menu of hot and cold breakfast items in the community room on Mondays. There is a spot within each apartment for W/D, but there is also a laundry room on each floor. A trash room on each floor has a trash chute and a place for recyclables. Maintenance is on top of things in the building. There is an on-site adult day care center. The first three floors are county offices related to the aging, caregivers, elder abuse, etc. There is an attorney who volunteers his time once a week to residents. There is a hairdresser that also comes to the building once a week or so. There is someone at the security desk 24/7. Price for 2 BR with balcony $896. One bedroom apartments are obviously less.The only drawback to the building is that there is only one small community room which tends to be in use a lot of the time. There is no place for the residents to congregate except in the public lobby. The residents also do not have access to a bank.

the only 'problem' is the very high price which does not inlcude any food.Monthly rent for one small bedroom is over $2000.00.And the kitchens are very small.

Very nice

She thought the apartment was OK, but wasn't thrilled with the grounds. She loves to walk.

I like what I have seen and hear about this place. My daughter, wants to explore other options before I comit to this place. I also need to tour the place myself

From what we have seen the activities seem good, they do have bingo, Wii bowling, and poker. The food is getting better, and the rooms are acceptable. Our loved ones have a small two bedroom and two bathroom.

My Mom moved in in October and the building is still not complete. There’s still a lot of construction going on and they don’t have a lot of the amenities available that they originally promised her. The room that she was supposed to move in wasn’t even ready, but they were able to upgrade her to a different room for the same price. The room she’s in now is beautiful and the view of downtown is absolutely fabulous. They only have 1 restaurant available right now, but the food is absolutely gourmet. The team that works there has been wonderful and very nice. They’ve been so attentive throughout the whole process. If I call for any updates, I never feel like I’m being put off or anything. They’re always willing to help and I can say they’re at least trying to do right by the residents. Overall, I think the money we’re paying is worth the care that she’s receiving and the environment itself. I just wish the amenities they promised her were readily available.

I'm just here for three days. Everybody is really friendly and outgoing. The dining room dinner last night was very good! My apartment was perfect when I moved in ( it will be soon again after I finish unpacking! ) . The neighbors I have met seem to really like the living here.

It is a wonderful establishment and there are many levels of care for every individual depending on their situation and needs. The staff is quite attentive and friendly. There is not a lot of younger handicap residents, but there are a lot older than me and some younger and i am 86. The service and residence is great overall, and i am very pleased with my stay.

A new management has begun and I am seeing many great improvements to the property. I am very encouraged. 3 stars all with 4 stars for friendliness.

Most of the people are very friendly! There are only 2 maintenance people to care for 3 large buildings so sometimes it takes a bit before some things can be done. They try very hard but they really need to employ more maintenance staff. The office are always welcoming and ready to listen to your concerns. They need to have some different activities ! No I think the cost of here is not worth it! Plus the appliances need updating or better quality.

The new building manager changes the rules frequently. Instead of addressing issues appropriately they take things away from the tenants.

I signed my lease over a week prior to moving in. At that time I also gave them a list of things that would need to be addressed by maintenance and this included hanging pictures, put a folding door back on its track as well as the screen door, the balconynlight doesn'twork, the foor to the balcony doesn't lock. I requested a hand rail by the toilet. I was told that the kitchen appliances would all be exchanged with new ones. I moved in and the apartment had not been cleaned. Yesterday I mentioned this to the office and they immediately called their contract cleaner who came over right away to clean. I have now lived here 2 weeks and not one promise has been kept. The only thing that was done was to clean the place. I am getting annoyed!

Staff very friendly and helpful. The building is older and Schenectady is not particularly beautiful. The residents are friendly and mom is safe.
