The Wellington - Saint Paul, MN

The apartments at The Wellington Senior Living were nice and spacious. It was just too big and there were too many residents. The lady that did the tour was very helpful and knowledgeable. It seemed like they had plenty of activities and outside people coming in for entertainment. Then they had an outdoor garden area and a computer room. It looked very neat and tidy. It was impressive.

The Wellington Senior Living was a beautiful place. We just wanted to have more green space than what they have available, but it's a very walkable neighborhood. The room itself and the whole facility was very nice too. They're just updating all of the bathrooms and they're gorgeous. Then they have onsite food, activities, and all the different levels of care. It's nine floors, so it's apartment living, and the three-seasons room was nice. They have a little bit more variety of activities there. For example, if you are interested in academic type of activities, they were having the mayor come to visit to do stuff like that with the politics of the local city. They also provide transportation, a garage for an additional fee, exercise room, an onsite hairdresser, a movie room, and pretty much all the same types of things. The woman who gave us the tour went above and beyond. My husband and I both really liked her. She provided us with all the information we need.

My mother lived in the Wellington Senior Living before. It's fairly good. She had a very nice apartment, and she was well-attended to. I think a lot of her friends were there and that's a huge thing. They had field trips, exercise classes, movies, church services on services on Sunday, and music every weekend. They had a big parking garage.

My dad fell today in his apartment. It took 20 minutes for someone to come assist him to get up. The nurse on call didn't even know what meds he was on. My parents just moved here in June and we are not pleased. The entire kitchen staff left and since the food and service has been horrible. We are very disappointed. And I just tried to call the Wellington 3 times and the phone Just rang , no pick up , no answering .

I will be moving to the Wellington. They’ve got so much activity, and every single day is filled with things to do. That is what I am really looking forward to. The facility was nice. It was an older building but very nice. They have a big dining room. I got to get 30 to 31 tickets a month and that may be for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The staff was absolutely wonderful. Lisa and Christian were wonderful. The apartment is small -- about 650 sq. ft. -- and it will be easy to take care of. I’ve got a dog, and they allow dogs -- little ones -- which is nice because I don’t have to get rid of him. The apartment has got a living room, a dining room at the end of the living room, a small kitchen, no dishwasher, a bedroom, a bathroom, a big closet in the bedroom, a pantry, and a closet in the entry way. They’ve got independent, assisted, and memory care, so in the event that I need assisted living, I do not have to move. I sure hope I won’t need memory care, but if I do, it is there, and I think I will have to move to another area in the building.

The Wellington's people are very nice. It is clean, and there are lots of windows. They have a nice dining room, and there is a person overseeing the residents' nutrition. There is a 24/7 nurse. You can get them to do your laundry for a fee. The price is reasonable, and the services are good.
