This community is outstanding! I've never been to a community where you see even office staff help with kitchen needs, housekeeping, activities, housekeepers doing activities, I mean they truly stand out when it comes to true teamwork and partnership. I will be forever grateful knowing my folks are in a community that is truly run by some of the most kind and wonderful people.

I toured The Meetinghouse at RiverFront. I had called them back. Their kitchens, in my opinion, were extremely outdated. I asked if there were other apartments available with perhaps a little more updating in the kitchen, and I was told no. If I wanted to update it, I could, but it would be out of my own pocket. I had to call a few times just before I got a call back when I wanted to ask the question about the kitchen. It took a couple of calls before I heard back from them. They have an exercise room and a library.

We toured The Meetinghouse at Riverfront. It was nice. They have different room sizes, but what we saw was a studio, and it was small. They have two different-sized studios, and they have ones with one bedroom and two bedrooms. It was just like a room. The staff was a bit evasive and we just didn't get the warm feeling we got at the other place.

I toured this community yesterday. The person who usually gave tours was out of the building, but the front desk person was kind, and the director met me and toured the community. This place felt like home the minute I walked through the doors. They offer support for those who need a little extra care. The head Chef came out and introduced himeself to me and all the staff was very happy and pleasant. a couple residents stopped to say hi and tell me how much they love their home. Best place i have toured in a month.

I put myself on the waiting list for the Meetinghouse at RiverFront. It was fabulous. Everybody, from the bus driver to every resident, was very friendly, and went out of their way to say hello. The person that gave me the tour was very, very good. The prices are probably a little more than I'd like, but nothing out of a range that I could handle. In fact, their website is still saying no pets, but they've recently changed that with some very reasonable restrictions. I was very, very well impressed. The menus looked very good. There was a salon. They no longer offer a gym. They used to, but they realized it was not being utilized to the extent it could have been, so they've repurposed the space. The outside, in decent weather, has tables with umbrellas and chairs set up. They've got several different rooms for various types of activities. They offer very good snowplowing even in the parking lot for people who have cars, which, for instance, I do. They ask to have a spare set of keys, which they keep under lock and key. If there's snow plowing they can move your car, plow that area, and then you move your car back, which I found very good. They had somewhat separate parking for residents and guests, which I thought was very good. I was very pleased with the place. It is right off the highway and very convenient to get to.

We are living at the Meetinghouse at RiverFront. The price is excellent. It's a very vibrant community, and that means the staff and the residents. They are very helpful. They have great services here. They have a physician assistant nurse that works in the building, and she can become your PCP, so you don't have to run around to some office. They come once a week and do blood labs, so if your doctor has requested blood for anything, they can do it right here. The premises are excellent. We have a nice two-bedroom apartment on the first floor with easy access to everything. The highway location is excellent because you can go north and not have to deal with the Manchester Mall or downtown Elm Street. It's terrific. I like the food. The food has a great variety. They serve decently small portions. If you want more, you can get more of it. They bring in music. They play bingo here. They have poker. The facility is wonderful.

I wanted a place that felt like home for my mom, I was looking for a bright and cheerful place. After touring five communities, we walked through the doors at the Meetinghouse and we knew it was going to be her home. Very bright, staff was so sweet and knowledgable and the building was clean. rResidents were super friendly and she even knew a couple people. So Now she has lived there for three months and we couldnt be happier.

We're going with The Meetinghouse at RiverFront. My grandmother's room is being held until she's ready to move in. It seemed like it was very updated, clean, and tidy. All of the people that were living there seemed very friendly, nice, and welcoming as well as the staff. The rooms were good, enough for what she was looking for. The meals were included. They had a wide range of activities.

The Meetinghouse at RiverFront had a nice apartment. They also had studios (the single rooms) that were very nice, and the bathroom was more into the room. Just touring it, everybody was so friendly, even the clients were so friendly not even knowing why I was there to say hello. I liked the setup. It seemed very well kept. Everybody was very sociable. The one big thing I liked about the room is that it had big windows. There was a lot of light that came in, which in winter is a problem for me. These windows let a lot of light during the day. And there, I can have some help come in as I needed if I want. They don't have assisted living but several companies will go there that provide help for people. I ate lunch there and it was very nice. I know they have activities, but I didn't look at the list. I only met one staff. She was very accommodating.

The residents at The Meetinghouse seemed very friendly. The place is clean, and the tour guide was very knowledgeable and very helpful. They have an opportunity for religious services. They have a small hair salon to get their hair done and a small convenience store set up. There are washers and dryers on every floor, great elevators, and a common area. The staff was great. Both people I met were really nice. Everything was very clean and just seemed very well taken care of. The dining room was not a catering kind of thing. People would just order and get their food. It's nice and open. There are windows to the courtyard, and the tables are fairly spaced.

My wife's aunt is going to The Meetinghouse at Riverfront. It seemed really nice and it was the only one in her price range. She's going to be using their support services. The staff was very pleasant, and they weren't selling at all. They were basically just making sure it was the right place for my wife's aunt. They have a lot of activities. We met the activities director. All the people that live there were very pleasant. It wasn't depressing at all. It's built in 1999, so it's not too old. It looked nice, and it was clean. They've got nice grounds. They serve three meals a day, and they have a menu, and it's a good assortment.

“My mother-in-law loves this place, so do we. Great environment, awesome people, and did I mention the food?” We never worry about her like we use too. The staff are incredible, the social events are always changing for them. It really is a family atmosphere. We recommend the Meetinghouse to everyone.

This community was great when my mom moved in. Then they hired a new director. Moral, attitude and the vibe went down very quickly. Staffing is a huge issue. Nobody stays. There is a high turnover and everyone says it's because of the person in charge and owners don't care. The food is also terrible. They make promises they won't keep. Go elsewhere.

My sister is a resident of The Meetinghouse at Riverfront. They check on her every now and then, but it's not assisted living. They provide three meals a day, and her first impressions have been very good. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The location is near a river and my sister can see the river from her window. They also have courtyard and they told me they have beautiful flowers during the spring and summer. There's a van that takes them shopping or to doctors' appointments and things of that sort. It has a facility for a hairdresser, movies, and things going on all the time. She has a 1-bedroom with a very large bathroom, it has a very small kitchenette without a stove or anything, and she has a microwave. It's big enough for her bed, a TV, and a dresser. She's happy with it, and that's all she needs. I'm certainly very impressed with what I've seen so far.

This is an excellent facility. We went on many tours (too many to count) and The Meetinghouse was by far the best place for my mother. All staff is kind, loving, professional and very helpful. My mother enjoys the food and all of the activities. This place is kept very clean with attention to detail. We would highly recommend The Meetinghouse At Riverfront.

Meetinghouse at Riverfront was lovely. Their prices were much better, and they can continue on with Medicare patients. For my mom, this is going to be a better fit if she ever decides to come. They actually had a couple different options. They had bigger apartments, and then some studios. They had a variety of places at Riverfront. They would not provide furniture except for the basics like microwave and refrigerator.

The Meetinghouse was a very good place to live. The staff were very good and very helpful. The apartments were spacious and very clean. The dining room was very clean, very beautiful, and very elegant. They have bingo, church, and a bus that goes out everyday to doctors' appointments, which is very convenient.

Meetinghouse At Riverfront is a very nice place although it's an old facility and it's not up-to-date as compare to others. They have a lot of covered space; in fact the rooms have large storage and walk-in closet. The staff were also very nice.
