My aunt moved into Senior Suites of South Shore. We chose it because it was the only one that came up with an available 1-bedroom. The staff members are nice, and taking care of the people there. She has a nice room, and it has everything she needs. They have limited activities and amenities right now because of Covid. They've got some exercise bike.

I toured the Senior Suites of South Shore. My dad liked that. It's convenient for him. He's going into a one-bedroom. The apartment was nice. It's not like a regular apartment, but it's good enough for him. He doesn't need a lot of space anymore. They take them to the store once a week. They get maintenance on-site and monthly housekeeping. They have like a monitor, not that they're going to knock on the door to see if they work, but make sure there's movement throughout the day with them and not just sitting there. It's a nice place. The layout was good.

I toured Senior Suites of South Shore. It's very nice and very clean. The apartment is too big. The guys I met were pretty nice and friendly. The dining area serves coffee in the morning. They have transportation. They take you to the store. It is a very nice place, and the price is very reasonable.

My wife and I are staying at Senior Suites of South Shore. The staff is excellent when it comes to working with people. We have access to nurses and doctors. The staff comes up and checks on you, and they make sure you're getting up and moving around. There are a lot of activities going on. It's a very good place. It's right off Lake Shore Drive, and you can see the lakefront out your window. We need wheelchairs to get around and a lot of places wouldn't accommodate them, but this place is OK with them. They take you places. They also work with you based on your income.

I like Senior Suites of South Shore. It's very clean, very neat, and quiet. My father is very satisfied with the property. The staff is very friendly and helpful. He has a studio apartment that's been newly rehabbed. They put new flooring in, new cabinets, and carpeting. They have a living room facility on each floor for the tenants, a free washer and dryer, and activities for the seniors. They also have on-site parking that's gated. You cook your own meals.

Senior Suites of South shore was nice and seemed very pleasant. It was very clean, and it didn't smell. The apartments were nice, but it wasn't for me. The people were pleasant, very professional, but I'm a very active senior. I have no complaints, and everything was top of the line.

I visited the Senior Suites of South Shore, and I liked it very much. I saw a studio and it was set up very nicely. I was impressed with them. The studio was very nice. I didn’t see a 1-bedroom, but I was pretty impressed with the way the studio was set up. It was clean, and the staff was very friendly. The young lady who escorted me was very nice.

Senior Suites of South Shore's building is great, but I didn't care for the area. The rooms are beautiful, and everything was great. I just didn't like the community and the surrounding area.

The amenities of Senior Suites were OK; I was looking at the outside, there’s a lake, and there’s a park across the street. There’s not a lot of traffic, there’s a golf course down the street, and there’s South Shore cultural center; that’s in a walking distance as well. The rooms were OK, the amenities were up to date, and the people seemed friendly. The rooms were adequate enough, and my dad would be OK living in that arrangement.

I actually moved into this one, and I wished I hadn’t given up the place I was living in. They have a sewer issue, and the residents are using whatever to try and cover up the smell of the sewer. There are bedbugs here and just a lot of little things that lined your room. There are just a lot of little things that I’m disappointed about. They have a lot of things to improve on. This is just not the place, and it’s the Senior Suites of South Shore. The staff doesn’t listen, and they talk really fast. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anybody. There is nothing good I can say. The elevators look dirty; everything about this place is dirty. My bathroom and living room had this awful sewer smell, and between that and someone above me trying to cover it up, it’s bad.

I didn’t like what I saw at Senior Suites of South Shore. The staff was OK but they weren’t as forthcoming as they could have been. The place looked like a dollhouse; it was absolutely the tiniest living space I had ever seen in my life. I’ve never seen furniture that small. The ovens looked like an easy-bake oven for children; I didn’t even know they made stoves with ovens that small. The bed was a day bed and they have a sofa that was actually a love seat. This place is suitable for a single man who has never had a wife or family, who only has one plate, one pot, and one pair of shoes.

I visited my mom at Senior Suites of South Shore and I got a good feeling about it and I am pretty comfortable with the staff and the management. The rooms are very clean and well-kept, they're the same rooms all over so that was a good thing because it felt you're in the same room wherever you are so I like that. They had Bingo night and grocery shopping. I am very happy with the staff. I would recommend them for the cleanliness and management.

The staff told us a lot about Senior Suites and what they offer. It was a good experience. The rooms were nice, and the staff members that I met were nice as well as informative.

I toured Senior Suites. Everything they had was what I was looking for. They had electronic check-in, and they had assigned parking. It was very close to public transportation, it was a very clean property, and it seemed to be managed pretty well. The size of the units was fine for me. I wasn’t too satisfied with the stove; it was a little too small, but it’s workable. I love how close it was to the lake shore; it was just walking distance. They have a stationary bike, and they have some problems with keeping certain equipment in the recreational rooms. They had a washer and dryer on every floor. I was satisfied with the way they organized the shuttle service.

I went to Senior Suites, which my friend liked. The place seemed real nice. I had no problems with the staff; they were very helpful. He was able to get a studio apartment where he can see the lake.

Senior Suites of South Shore (2355 East 67th Street) was small. They were way too small for the money. I just can't believe how small these senior citizens' apartments are. I just feel cramped up in something like that. I have a lot of clothes, and that wouldn't help me at all.
Provider Response
Thank you very much for taking the time to include your review of Senior Suites of South Shore. I do understand your comments regarding the size of the apartments. It’s often an adjustment for seniors who may be moving from larger apartments or homes to a community like ours. However, we do find many residents, who after they are settled find the apartment quite comfortable in light of the various common areas we have for residents to use. We additionally find that residents often find it freeing to downsize their belongings & embrace the organization that comes from living in a smaller home. In addition, the responsibilities & burden of bill paying are greatly reduced due to our rents including all the utilities with the exception of telephone & cable.
I would encourage you to inquire with our Senior Suites of Midway Village or The Suites of Autumn Green at Wright Campus as we have one & two bedroom floor plans which may better accommodate your desire for more space.
Should you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call me at 312.673.4508.

My mom was in Senior Suites of South Shore for a good 8 years, and I visited her quite often. I liked everything about them and everything they had to offer. They staff was very helpful with everything, and they welcomed me with open arms. It had a very friendly environment. My mother's apartment was very spacious, with lots of closet space. It was nice, especially the view. The sitting area, where you could go out to the dining area -- oh gosh, it was so beautiful! I liked that. My mom liked to go down and pay bingo games and things like that. Then she helped serve in the kitchen sometimes. I was glad that they had transportation to take her around where she had to go because there were times that I wasn't able to take her myself. I also liked that they checked on her every day to make sure she was all right, and that was great. It was a great community, and I have recommended them to a couple of people.
