San Leandro Senior Living

Tamarra

My mother-in-law is here. She likes where it was. The front of the building faces the street and they've got these beautiful plants. It's in between a grocery store and the BART train here in San Leandro, so it's easy for transportation and then there's easy access to the grocery store and a small strip mall. The building is very nice. It's a brick red. It's not very big; it's about three stories. When you walk up, there are places to sit outside, there are very nice plants and landscaping. Everybody greets you when you walk in, so they make it very warm and inviting. The clients who are already there seem to be happy. They greet you as well. The staff there, Erin and Gilbert, were both very helpful, very responsive, and patient with us. They allowed us to come and visit multiple times before we finally decided. They're easy to reach, and they answer all of our questions. The lady who does the activities is also very nice and responsive. They do different group activities like chair volleyball, bingo, dominoes, and walks in the neighborhood. They have church service. There's a school, maybe two blocks away that will come and play music. The music department comes over and plays music for everyone. They have a lot of fun activities. My mother-in-law is in a studio apartment, and it's just the right size for her and what she needs. There's a balcony so that she's able to sit outside for fresh air if she likes. She likes that she can control her heat and make it as hot as she wants to. The staff is very responsive and easy to get to.

What I liked best was it was much more of a hotel living and their dining had more of a restaurant feel to it. The staff was very friendly, very knowledgeable, and understanding, too. I was very impressed with them.

The quality of all the employees is first and foremost! I never see a grumpy face or hear derogatory comments. The food is sometimes good and sometimes comme ci, comme ca. It's always fresh. Residents are always treated with kindness, care and concern.

My client moved into her own studio. She hasn't even been there for a month, but she's doing really good. The place is really nice, and she likes it there. It's relaxed, has activities to do if she chooses, and she has physical therapy that can come to her room and help her. They provide her meals and snacks. The staff is really attentive to their needs.

I'm happy here. I picked it because it's close to my sister and costs less than the place where I was living. I'm very close to BART, Safeway, CVS and all my banks. The food is much better than the other place I was living. The staff is very attentive. They have bingo, games and happy hour once a week; take us out to lunch every Wednesday; and have movies on every night. It didn't have grounds to walk around though. It's on the main street, but they do have trees around the place, which is very nice, and my cat likes it.
