Piedmont Gardens CCRC was more in the heart of the city. It was more like an independent place where they didn't have any locked gates. You could come and go with this kind of machine you have to go through (although it made it difficult for visitors). It was like apartment living, but it seemed like the assisted living were protected on their own floor. It was clean. The staff did a great tour; it was good. The dining area looked OK. It was fine. I went into the rooms. There weren't many people congregating together, but maybe it was the time of day. I did see the dining room had people in it. They had a library, a beauty salon, and a little gym with machines. It was well-organized and set up for the residents. It seemed like everything was perfect.

I can't afford Piedmont Gardens; it's too expensive. They seem to explain everything to us. They took us on a tour, showed us everything, and showed the possibility of a place being open. The woman was just nice. She was very polite and helpful. The grounds were beautiful. It had a lot of flowers and gardens. They have elevators, which is nice. Each floor opens up into a garden. It was very pleasant-looking.

I have a friend who lives at Piedmont Gardens. I think they are very proud of their residents who were active in their communities; they are retired university professors. They have lots of staff usually of intellectual nature; there are lectures, they have a library, they received periodicals, they have music available, and they take people to the theater. I toured some rooms, and I was interested in a 2 bedroom and 2 bath, but I couldn’t afford it as it was very pricey. I like the area where they are located as it’s across from shopping and restaurants; it's very nice.

We ended up going with Piedmont Gardens. The best thing about it is that it's close to Piedmont Avenue, so there's a lot of access to restaurants and stores, and it also has very active community and a lot of things going on. They have a lot of music, discussion groups, farmer's market, and the residents actually have a fund where they supplement the activities themselves. The apartments vary in quality. They have two buildings and one is newer than the other. They weren't really fancy. The assisted living is all studios as far as I know. They're very nice, but they're not huge. Most of the staff is very good. They have a lot of nice people who interact with people in the dining room, people in nursing care, and people who drive people around to appointments. In general, they are good.

Piedmont was very pleasant. The rooms and apartments were average. Nothing really sparkling and exciting; nothing really totally disappointing; it?s just kind of bland. But I like the location. They must have a more presentable entry and must do some re-carpeting.

Piedmont Gardens was OK. I didn't pay a great deal of attention, and I didn't have a meal there, so I have no evaluation of their dining area. The rooms were OK. I think the kitchenette area was kind of small, and the refrigerator was a very small one. The sanitation was good. I noticed that the staff members were courteous, respectful, and efficient. I think their location is fine.

We visited Piedmont Gardens, and we really like this place. We were very impressed with their library. It's a very nice library with good light and big places. People were sitting and reading a lot around there. The hallways were not as busy as the other place we looked at. The apartments were very nice. They would adapt to the apartment to whatever you want it. We felt very at home there. We ate there, and we liked it. We liked this place. This would be our second favorite.

The dining facility looked very good, and what they offered looked very good. The apartments looked very nice. The price for me going in as an independent was reasonable. My main drawback is the parking traffic, which is absolutely awful. The facility doesn't have any control over that. One of their big selling points is being right there on Piedmont Avenue, which has all these wonderful shops.

I was happy with Piedmont Gardens. The food was good and adequate. They had assistants and staff on-hand to meet my father's needs, they took care of him and moved him into a skilled nursing facility and brought him back to good health. The only thing was the building was well over 50 years old, it was well kept, but it lacked a little bit of personality and was bland.

My experience with Piedmont Gardens was positive. I was always surprised at the number of staff members who were available for assistance. My friend was a very finicky eater and was often unhappy with the food. A staff member overheard us talking about this issue and she immediately tried to address it. She brought my friend milk shakes, soup, and juice--all foods that she liked. There was also an employee who brought my friend her mail and--since she was blind in one eye--read her letters to her. The facility had musical entertainment on certain days, and people who were available to help my friend walk to space in which the performances took place. I've been in some facilities that were poorly lit and not too clean. Piedmont Gardens is spotless and comfortable. People who live there have created clubs and participate in outings to local shopping areas, etc. There seems to be a strong community.
