It was very nice, very nice, very open, very clean, and the people were friendly. I did not stay for a meal. I was supposed to go back and do that, and I have not done it, but I was very impressed with it, and it's very close to my home. The person that gave me some information was of course, very informative, and knew what they were talking about, and answered my questions, and I was very comfortable with the whole thing. I happen to have a friend that lives there, and they have no intentions of moving; they said they like it. I visited the dining room and game room. They had a reading room, like a library, and a lobby that was very comfortably furnished, and the way it was laid out, you could interact or go out or whatever. There were just some people standing around, talking, and playing the games. I think they were playing pool, and they had a television, a couple televisions, and just people going about their daily routine, like everybody was comfortable. It's a great location, it's near hospitals, drugstores, grocery stores, entertainment, very quiet, and lots of parking.

I liked Virginian. It's very good. The guy who helped me was very nice, too. It's a nice and clean place. I like everything there, but my preference is the other place. Nevertheless, the apartment was good.

The Virginian was very interesting. I like the layout, and the size of their single-bedroom apartments was fine. I also had a meal there for lunch, which was very good. The service was particularly good too. During the meal, I got to sit with a person who lives there. Everything about it was really nice and I appreciated the tour. The place is independent living. The young lady who took us through may walk a little too fast for me but it was alright. She was very cordial during the whole visit. Since then, we've talked several times too and they understand that I just wasn't ready for the move yet. I didn't really get to see the activity facilities so much but everything else was good. They even had a television room where they showed motion pictures. The facilities were impeccable.

I liked everything about it. The apartments, the meal that we had there, the staff, the dining facilities were all very nice. They offered a lot of services, which I thought was good. If I had decided to move at that point, I would have moved there. The one-bedroom that we saw had a separate bedroom, a living room, a small kitchenette, and a bath. They all looked very good. I liked the idea that they provided meals if you don't feel like cooking and that they clean your apartment. They had a lot of things that they offered, like clubs, activities, and transportation to doctors (that was an important one to me). They had a library, a movie room, and all kinds of things that you could use.

The staff was very friendly and outgoing. They went out of their way to greet me. The facility was excellent. I had a chance to chat with the chef, who is very involved and very caring. The staff was extremely caring. They talked with the resident who needed some emotional consoling, and they were right there for her, and that was lovely.

The difference between this community and the other one that we looked at was the layout and lighting. There was much more natural light here. Services and everything were pretty much identical, but the room sizes and layouts were significantly less at this place. They had the movie theater, the activity area, and they offered three meals a day. The staff during the tour was friendly, cooperative, informative, and answered questions. It felt more like a hotel.

We liked it. We thought it was a good option for my mom had her health been better. They have good services it seems, a very good staff, and pretty good accommodations. If my mom had been able, we probably would have given it a try. The person who gave us the tour was very good. She was very confident. Overall, I thought it was a good option for people who can live independently.

It is a beautiful place in a great location. The staff is nice, and the food is good. My mom likes joining in the activities. It costs a lot of money, though.

The location is not far from where we lived before, so everything around it is pretty familiar. The people seemed to be very happy. We liked it. We ate several good meals there. We wanted a two-bedroom, but there aren't any available, so we're moving into a one-bedroom initially. The rooms are notlarge, which kind of disappointed us. Otherwise, all the facilities were very good. The staff as well as the residents seemed very good. They have a library, a movie theater, and a very good dining room. They seemed to have a lot of activities, and we've been to one or two of them to see what they were like. Everything seemed to be excellent.

She chose Virginian because the facility was something that suites her needs. It provided three meals a day. It's a ground floor living facility and that is good to her because she couldn't get upstairs very easily as mobility is a problem for her. She got a two bedroom apartment although it was a downsize place for her, but still reasonable. It's a really nice place and it got some transportation. It is also close to a rehab facility. I would recommend this facility to others if they were looking for an independent living facility.
