We went to The Wellington at Springfield. They were very nice. It was very clean. The woman there was very friendly and helpful. The room that we saw was a one-bedroom. It had upgraded wood floors, and it had a shared balcony. Unfortunately, the one thing I didn't like was they had an apartment sized refrigerator, not a full-size refrigerator. They were going to replace the one that was there with a stainless steel one, which was an upgrade. Their cafeteria was closed for some type of a renovation. They had like an activity room, where they do arts and crafts and painting. She said that they had a movie room, which was just a big screen TV. They had a place where you could get some books. She said once a week they try to take the residents some place, but she wasn't specific as to where.

The Wellington at Springfield was very clean and very nice. The rooms seemed very nice and also accessible for handicap or elderly people. It seemed to have a nice dining area, and from what I saw on the board, they seemed to have some good activities. I was very pleased. The staff was very cordial, very nice, and answered any questions that we had. They have some kind of chair yoga and chair exercises, which caught my eye because I like exercising and that would be something that my mom could do sitting in a chair. They also have bingo. The dining room was very spacious, the tables looked good, and they had a little area over there where you could get coffee and that seemed appealing. The courtyard outside seemed appealing, too. I saw the menu and it looked really good, but I didn't experience the meals.

The apartment at The Wellington at Springfield was currently an apartment used by the office staff or the administrator. It was very spacious and clean. I know my mother wouldn't be happy there. It took me a long time to get there; there was a lot of traffic and a lot of stoplights. At first, I couldn't find the place inside. Once I got in, I just drove past the sign and went to another building; it was difficult for me to find. The grounds are beautiful. I met the activities person; they had a lot of things to do.

Our tour to The Wellington at Springfield was great, but the cost for us was too much. The people though were very, very good. We had no problems with them at all. They made sure that we had lunch before we left and were waiting for us to come back. We had talked to Emma and a couple others there. We told them that if we can't do any better on the prices, then there's no sense in even trying to sell it. That's as far as it went, because they can only come down so much.
We liked the size of the apartments, the friendliness of the people that were in charge of things, and that the explanations were clear. They really went out of their way to do everything they could. It was just a great place to be. The people were very, very friendly. It was a great team to work and to talk with.
The food was also terrific, and they even gave us a little dessert cake to take home. Everything was nice and clean. We only expected a little microwave or something and that would be it, but it was actually a full size kitchen. The bathrooms were terrific. I have no qualms about any of them, actually. The Wellington at Springfield was absolutely fantastic, and it really hurts to not be able to get in there.

My aunt was at The Wellington at Springfield. It was lovely there. It was supportive, caring, clean, and very pleasant. The employees were great, no issues at all. I tried their food once or twice, and it was fair. They had music, entertainment, bingo, and group exercise, they had quite a bit of activities. The place was very nice.

My aunt and cousin have moved into The Wellington at Springfield. They are getting settled. Everything is going along quite well. I was really impressed with the staff. The apartments were among the largest that I had seen in all the communities that I looked at. It's a well laid out two-bedroom, two-bath. The accommodations are great. The amenities are good. I wouldn't say they're fabulous, but they are good. They have all the basic things available there. They have physical therapy available for an additional fee, they have a beauty parlor for an additional fee, they have a podiatrist come in, and they have a full docket of activities, which has been somewhat compromised because of COVID. I was also impressed that they've remained COVID-free throughout the worst pandemic in Massachusetts. Both of my relatives said the food is good. The facility is very clean, well cared for, and well lit. It's nicely appointed. They certainly weren't the cheapest, but neither were they the most expensive.

The Wellington at Springfield would be a good fit for Mom and Dad. The room they showed was a good size and it was very close to the dining room. It was very homey on a much smaller scale and I felt my parents would have felt very comfortable there. The staff was very nice and outgoing. They would also assist them with doctors' appointments. It's an older facility and not as new and posh, but it still had a lot to offer.

I really like The Wellington at Springfield. The rooms are clean and updated. The building itself is only a few years old. It has everything that would be needed to be comfortable. I saw activities going on and I saw the craft room and lunch room. The residents were clean, well-fed, and seemed happy to be there. The staff was really nice. The staff member I met was very engaging, answered all my questions, and followed up. It's just a fairly large place that involves a lot of walking.

The Wellington at Springfield was a fine community. They had a room available. They were friendly. The management was very nice to us. The Wellington Memory Care area is very brightly colored, each room and hallway section is a different bright and bold color, which is lovely and helpful to residents to identify boundaries and different areas. Their dining area had square tables and a nice menu. They allowed the residents to go outside, but since the outdoor area cannot be seen from within, residents have to be chaperoned, so it was not as leisurely. The activities seemed very nice and very interactive. For us, the only drawback was travel time. The drive was about an hour each way with traffic, thus being substantially further than what we hoped for. Otherwise, the Wellington is a very nice place for the residents.

The Wellington at Springfield was very nice. We really liked the setup. It was clean, convenient, and everything about it was very nice. Dad sat down and the girl knelt down on the floor in front of him and presented the place while she was on the floor. They had exercise equipment, like a treadmill and a bike.

The person at The Wellington at Springfield that gave us the tour was wonderful. The rooms were fabulous, and I thought the accommodation was really great. I just didn’t like their location because it was too far out, but their price was reasonable. They take the residents to places and they bring in entertainment, and the residents actually looked very happy. The dining area was beautiful, but we didn’t try the food.

My mother-in-law is at the Wellington at Springfield. They are very attentive, caring, and just wonderful people. Their nurses are terrific. She is very happy where she is. They tend to her, and it is a good place. It is a beautiful place; the layout is just perfect. I have no complaints at all. She is sharing a room with another resident, and she loves it; she is very happy. It is well-maintained, and they come and do laundry service once a week. It is just the perfect place. She is OK with their food -- a little bland and on the cold side sometimes when she gets it -- but she chooses sometimes to eat something simple in her room. Their dining facilities are beautiful. It is very spacious and plenty of tables, and the set up is pretty with tablecloths and flowers on each table. They allow family to dine with you if you like.

It is nice, big, and clean. They brought us to the dining room and showed us a movie, brochures, and gave a speech. The food was good and served restaurant-style.

It was very nice. I met the people, and I thought I am going to choose it if I am ready because I met the people and everybody seemed to be very happy, and they talk to us. The people are more active and friendly. The location is very nice; it’s close to Washington University. The food was very good, I would rate that very high. They only served two meals, and I like the layout of the rooms. It was a little easier for me, and they had handicapped baths.
