United Plus Property Management

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.

This is the quality of people they hire to take care of your family. I suggest you look elsewhere for care. I'm sure there are good employees but would your risk your grandmother's safety with an employee like that?

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.

More than half the staff is new here because the other staff was fired or quit since I moved in a few months ago. It's hard to get things completed - for example I had an error in my rent calculation for the first month and I didn't get the credit until December because I asked every week what the status was. I have had maintenance requests put in and were closed without being fixed or I fixed them myself. Communications are not done timely or in print that people could read (large). There is a residents team that meets with the staff, but nothing seems to come out of it. The new residents' meetings have been cancelled every time there is one scheduled. This is important information and it doesn't seem important to the staff. There has been one town hall, but that was to announce the changes in the meal plan and that took a bad turn so everything else was kind of put off to the side. There is part of the roof that is not covered with shingles and it seems that there is no plan to fix it. Housekeeping is good; they keep the general areas nice and clean. The garbage removal is a whole different problem; it is often full and it stinks, people complain but just last week, trash was all over the parking lot, like an animal got into it. There is not enough handicapped parking and it seems the entrance way is always blocked with parked cars that are only supposed to be there for 15 minutes but are there much longer. The move in process is all on the renter, no bins are provided to transport large boxes of items or the carts that are available are very small for groceries only. There were some admin issues with my entrance badge but I got them fixed. The meals are hit and miss in quality and temperature. They recently raised the cost of the plans, which is a pretty high cost for the meal you get. There could be more automatic doors for the folks who use walkers, the downstairs bathroom doors are very heavy and they have a really hard time getting in and out of the door. I would not recommend the facility as it is now and I am thinking about moving to a different apartment and buying out my lease. Too much to be done and it seems that it's handled at a snail's pace.

Although Campo Felice is a clean and lovely place, they have a lot of issues with the property. My parents moved in October and their unit did not have hot water and the air conditioner did not work in one of the bedrooms. There are four elevators and only two work. At least once a week, one breaks and all the seniors have to use one elevator. With wheelchairs and walkers, going twice a day to the dining room, the tenants spend a long time waiting for the elevator to arrive. Two months later, the air conditioner was fixed but the hot water in one bedroom works 3/7 days of the week and the elevator still breaks down. This is unacceptable for a 91 year old man and for the price we pay for their unit. They should have offered us another unit before they moved in since they knew they had hot water issues. The staff is kind and the activities are good but they are losing tenants and have not been able to reach the 50% occupancy that will allow them to improve the facility. They have not delivered all of the amenities they promised when we toured the facility with my parents which is false advertisement. We are still deciding if we should move my parents to another facility but it is very stressful at their age!

The Lodge is fantastic in accommodations. However what was represented by the leasing agent is not all what was said. I asked specific questions and received answers that confirmed my questions. In reality many things are not so. I was led to believe that there were people to handle some needs, like taking an RX to the pharmacy or coming to help you for quick help. There is no such help. There’s the phone “concierge” and the maintenance staff of two. I was told they could help installing shelving, etc. after I moved in. They do not. This is a lovely place. The restaurant is very good. I would be careful if you needed assistance here and there. It’s non existent. Other people have experienced the same.

My friends live here. They seem to be mostly happy with it, but they’re a little unhappy with the food. They’ve said it can be a little too rich, but the soup and the hot bread have been great. The facility provides a few activities and they’ll bring in entertainers for the residents. However, it’s still under construction so there are a lot of activities that still aren’t available. There were supposed to be four restaurants but there’s only one and a lot of the units are still under construction as well. The cleanliness seems to be good, though. Their apartment has a patio that looks right at the river, but not many of the units have the same feature. The valet parking is nice, you just drive up and hand them your keys and you don’t have to worry about your car. Overall, if you like a high-rise, city-like, lifestyle then I would recommend this place. But if you prefer country living than I wouldn’t.

The apartments seem to be clean but the facility smells like smoke. They allow smoking. The hallways are not clean. The carpets are dirty. Other than that it's a safe place. Its not on a bus line which is difficult for some residents. The cigarette smoke is the reason why I gave it less of a rating. The apartments are spacious and clean. It's just the facility that needs work. The cleanliness is my main concern.

Seems to have it all. For a fully protected enviro. probably dont need full kitchen.

It hasn't been a very good experience. Staff is never available. The price increase after year 1 was shameful. What dining experience....they cut corners.

Maintenence is lacking and garbage always piled up in the trash room. Receptionist was very unfriendly I would not recommend The Lodge at Bridgemill based off of our experience.
