We visited the Saucon Valley Manor and we chose that place for my mom. She is going to be moving there probably next week. We chose it mostly because of the location. The woman that I spoke with was outstanding. She's the admissions woman there and she was excellent. We took a tour of their assisted living, we liked the facility and the people that we met, and it just seemed like the best fit for my mom. They introduced us to some people that were there and we got to see some of the activities that were going on. The place was also very, very clean. I saw a room and they have a refrigerator there. There were a couple of courtyards too. There was a kind of a dining area with a microwave and there was also a general recreational area with TVs.

We toured Saucon Valley Manor, and it was a nice place. We looked at the assisted living and memory care, and everybody was very nice. They had a small place to go outside that had a grill, and they cook out there in the summertime. It's on Main Street of Hellertown, and it's easy for me to get to. The hospitals are not that far away, but it's not close to shopping.

Yesterday, I went to Saucon Valley Manor. The tour was very good. It was very apartment-like. My sister and her husband have always lived in an apartment, so I thought, 'Oh, this looks like it's going to be a very easy transition for them if that ever happens.' I was very impressed that they always have an opening like they kind of keep things open, and I thought that in itself is marvelous. You could always move in, and I thought that was wonderful. We were just going to have to kind of figure out what they could afford as far as what type of room they got. They showed one room that didn't have a separate living area, like a little living room or family room. We thought it was very large, and they did have a little kitchen space in there, which was nice. I thought that there was plenty of room for a queen-sized bed, dressers, and then you could even use a little space to have a little sitting area where you could put maybe a love seat or maybe a couple of chairs and a little table, so it was large enough where you could do that in that one room. The one-bedroom that we saw was just marvelous. We saw two one-bedrooms and they had a kitchen space and a stove. When my sister and brother-in-law were assessed, they would be allowed to use that, if not, the stove is not turned on, which is nice. But the living area was so large. One of them had a walk-in closet; it was just perfect. The other one-bedroom we saw was large, it didn't have the walk-in closet, but it had the closet. The bathrooms were very nice and accessible. I was very happy to see that. The tour was very informative, and I appreciated being able to see the different rooms. The staff who showed me was very well informed and answered any questions that we had. She said that we could contact her if any other questions came up.

My mom is at Saucon Valley Manor, and it's a very nice community. It's not really big like some other places. It's small, quaint, and very comfortable. They have quite a few activities too. They have a large courtyard for entertainment and families. They have a movie room. There are plenty of rooms to do all of their activities, plus the outside as well. She's in personal care, and her room is comfortable. They have different levels. Their administrators are always available when you need help. Overall, they have a good staff. This is the best place, financially speaking, for all of the amenities to allow for seniors.

The entry process at Saucon Valley Manor was very easy and everyone was very helpful and informative in getting us transitioned in as easily as possible. My mom mentioned that they have Zumba and kickboxing, which is pretty funny. They have a salon, she had gotten her hair and nails done there and she said that it was great. She said that the food is really good and she's been pleased that they can order off of a menu, which she likes. So there are different options for each meal.

We are in the process of getting my mother into Saucon Valley Manor. We highly recommend it. It was very nice, and the people were friendly and very nice. The room was very nice, bright, and roomy. The food seems adequate. It seems to be very good, like everybody else. There are options for everybody. They have a living-room area with a big TV, a movie theater, nice outdoor patios, and a rec room where they have bingo. They also have a dining area. They answered all our questions, and they were very polite to my mother too. The facility was very clean, and the room was very clean also. Because of the pandemic, activities were slow, but they're slowly getting back to things. My mother has not been there yet, but the opportunities are there and they're getting back to normal.

I visited Saucon Valley Manor, and the facility was very nice. I was not too happy as far as the way you are sitting and having dinner at the assisted living. The rooms were not that bad. The staff told me that they were starting to build another 88 apartments next month on their property, which I think would be modern and would be a little different. I would have liked a more updated, livelier, and prettier dining facility. That is what I was looking for, and I just thought it was a little depressing. I only met one girl there, and she was very nice, very informative, and asked me if I had any questions. She made me feel very comfortable.

I had my aunt in Saucon Valley Manor for three months until she passed, and they did a very good job of taking care of her. She was total care, she was bedridden and had five strokes. They took excellent care of her. Her room was fine, but she was bedridden so it was not really of much value to her except that she was in the bed. The staff was good. It was very clean, and they were very helpful. The food was good except they would only allow her to have pureed food. It was small and for that reason everyone knew everyone. I would highly recommend them.

My mother is in Saucon Valley Manor. I pay $3,000. They don't take any Medicaid or Medicare. The place is very clean. My mother says the food is very good. The administrative staff, I'll give them a -10. They suck; they never return your calls. However, the price is right. The place is very nice and clean. It's a big place. Since my mother has been there, I've never been allowed inside. They have activities, but since COVID-19 they're very, very limited. They have just started going back to the dining room, too. They were eating in their rooms for about a month. It's only $3,000 and you get three months free; you don't get them in a row, like you'll get this November, next November, and then the third November. They spread them out over the years. They do your laundry, and they clean your room. They have assisted living, independent living, and dementia care. The independent living is only $2,000 and it includes meals, someone checks on you twice a day, and they clean your apartment.

We're very satisfied with Saucon Valley Manor, we didn't have any problems. The floors were clean, the building was clean and the patients were they were supposed to be. Their facilities were fine and it's a large community. We saw the different rooms in the assisted living and there was nothing that I saw which made me think that I didn't like it. We went there to visit on a Saturday so I didn't see any staff. The dining room was clean but nobody was eating at that time which was around 2:00.

My father moved into Saucon Valley Manor, but he passed. It was a very nice place, good employees, very nice people, and they were almost like family when I got there. I was satisfied with the care he got.

For the money they charge there should be better care given. The food is awful, and they are completely understaffed. Sometimes my friend rings the bell and waits half hour before somebody shows up. I would not recommend this place, sorry, you need better care givers.

Saucon Valley Manor was very good, nice, clean, and big. The staff was fairly nice. It was just a little bit too much of a distance to travel to visit my mother.

Saucon Valley Manor is very comfortable, and my mother-in-law is overjoyed to be in a place where her basic needs are met. Her room is adequate with a bathroom, and she shares it with another lady. I think the food is good and adequate, and she likes it a lot. I would say that for the price, it is very above average, and it has a good vibe about it. In general, we’re happy.

I know someone at Saucon Valley. The place is beautiful, and the rooms are beautiful, but the staff is not good. The nurse doesn’t come often, and the med techs are not good. There are a lot of older people in their 80s or 90s there. There is no special diet, but the food is good. Most of the apartments are very large and spacious, and they have shared rooms with a separate door to the bedroom. They should hire more competent med techs and more accessible nurses. They also need coordination when someone wants a private doctor.

We went to Saucon Valley Manor. It was very simple without any glitz or glamour. The units were different sizes, so you had really small one-bedroom units or an OK-sized one-bedroom, but there weren't any two-bedrooms units that we could see. They were all on the 2nd level, and you had to be approved for them, so we couldn’t even get to see them. They had a lot of restrictions. The staff was very accommodating.

I visited Saucon Valley Manor for myself and didn’t like it. The rooms weren't very nice and cheerful. I was not impressed at all. There was one person that helped me into the restroom, who was very polite and helpful. The manager was very nice. The rooms were depressing.

My relative likes being in Saucon Valley Manor's assisted living program. They take care of her and are very friendly. She has a nice room with a microwave and a little kitchenette, and she can take her own food in. She enjoys it. The dining area is nicely set up. The facility is clean and spacious.

My father stayed at Saucon Valley Manor. Affordability and the levels of care available were the reasons why we picked them. He was in the restricted access unit and had excellent care. The place was clean. He had such a good appetite, so the food had to be OK. He has dementia, so he cannot comment about how good the food was, but he ate every day. They had some activities. I appreciated that on Sundays they had church activities, and we could participate. I really liked that the caregivers seemed to care about the people, and it was not just a job to them.

We chose Saucon Valley Manor for my dad, and he has been there for a month already. Their staff is very accommodating. If you have any problems, you can talk to them. They take care of it rather quickly. Everybody is pleasant, and everybody knows his name. So far we haven’t had any problems.

Saucon Valley Manor is extremely nice. It is very clean. Everybody seems very happy. I really like the place. The staff is wonderful. They check on my dad every two hours, which is a good thing. They get him out of bed and make sure he eats three meals a day. He is in a private room, and it is extremely clean, spacious, and nice. I am very happy with it.

I chose Saucon Valley Manor as the people were very interested. The price was good. So far I’m very happy with what they’ve done for my mother. She gets help to get to the bathroom, to be put in bed, and they take her to the dining room. They administer medicine, and I am satisfied with the services.

One thing that is nice about Saucon Manor is a doctor's office is attached right next to the building. You could use their door or walk right through. In other words, you don't need to go outside. They also have therapy and exercise rooms right there. That was kind of nice, too. However, it is an old schoolhouse that they converted into a home. It didn't seem homey; it seemed business-like. And it was too overwhelming. I thought it was a little too large for my mother.

This was the worst experience! My mom was so unhappy that i could not keep here there, it’s scary how this place is even still open. Anyway, the point is my mom needs help at night and this place cannot provide this sort of help, although they would market their great service. I highly recommend you find another place for your loved ones

Worst place ever! I had to move my mom after less than a week!!! The staff was rude, the care mediocre, and it took her for ever to get any assistance when she really needed it. To make this even worse the owners are sleazy and not well respected in the community.

My mother stayed at Saucon Valley Manor for about 3 to 4 years. I liked the rooms because it was all unique and designed differently. There were both mobile and immobile residents in the facility. I thought the level of care given for the immobilized residents were not enough. There were plenty nurses on the day shift and they were good. I had problems with the second and third shifts. There was just not enough staff to attend to the needs. I have also tried the food. It was okay. I thought the portions were small but it was enough for the elderly.

When she originally began staying there, the care providers were rather pleasant and nurturing, as the months rolled by, the staff began to change, and it was obvious, that the employees the residents would now come to know, were younger, less caring, and unable to relate with the residents. From my experience, I've taken notice to a rather lethargic disposition among even the resident she shares her living space with, Christine. I would never refer this care facility to anyone, as even the sister facility (Whitehall Manor) is revered as a better location.

The assisted living facility was very nice. While the building looked a little old, the rooms were roomy and clean. The staff was very friendly and kind. If you had a question or needed assistance, they had no problem helping you. The cleaning staff and dining room staff were also very friendly. The rooms were spacious and set up in a way so that the residents can easily move around and get to each room. There were a lot of safety features as well. I also liked how there was a precise fire escape plan. Another aspect I enjoyed were the activities. There were different rooms for different activities to entertain the residents. I liked where the facility was located. It was in a safe neighborhood next to a bank and a police station. There was also various food joints and restaurants around in case a resident did not like cooking. It was in walking distance to churches, parks, a pool, and a laundry mat.
