Community Reviews
Looked very nice
reviewed on: 03/13/2014 by M RI toured this location when I was looking into care options for my loved one. This was a very nice looking community, and I was impressed by the tour. The person who showed me around was very friendly, and the food they served for lunch was good. However, this was a much more "comprehensive" style community, and would have provided a lot of care that my loved one didn't really need at this point, and the price reflected this, it was much more expensive.
Helpful Staff!!
reviewed on: 08/10/2017 by AnonymousI have no complaints of how things went for my loved one and I during out tour of this community. The staff where on time to our appointment and made sure to answer any questions we had for them in detail. I like the open floor layout and all of the great amenities available to all of the residents. It was just not the right location in the end decision but I would recommend it to anyone.
Great Choice for concerned Loved ones
reviewed on: 03/16/2017 by Michael KesslerI am very pleased to say that our choice of Grossmont Gardens for the care of my brother has been confirmed;-) I have been impressed with all categories provided by GG. Employees are friendly and very caring. In a time where my brothers best interests were at stake, we made a great choice. I do need to get him more involved in activities but over all he is very happy.
Tiny rooms and too much distance between places
reviewed on: 11/16/2017 by AnonymousMy mother-in-law was here and a friend of mine is here now too and it hasn’t been great. The rooms are very tiny, everything is too sprawled out, and the activities and dining area are quite a bit away from each other. My friend says that her husband can’t get downstairs to eat so they’ll bring him his food but by the time they get there, the food is cold. The staff is nice and friendly and the facility is kept clean but it just isn’t great.
