Cogir of Manteca Senior Living was my favorite. They were very friendly. The only problem was it's right next to railroad tracks and my father is a light sleeper, but what I liked the most was that the common grounds were bigger and they promoted a more family atmosphere. You could just sign up for a room and you could invite your family over and have get-togethers. They're willing to cater food for the family, which impressed me. It was really, really nice. The person who gave us a tour was very sweet. He actually introduced us to the residents and I got my father talking to one of them. It was a really nice experience. They had a patio area that had a barbecue pit, plus they had spacious lawns that family could play games and stuff on. It was the biggest lawn out of all of them.

We went to Cogir of Manteca Senior Living. The person who gave us the tour was very professional, very hands-on, and very good. The place was very clean. The vibe was good. It was optimum for somebody who wants that kind of thing. If my mother would have been open to something like that, it would be great because it was very clean. The units were remodeled. They're remodeling the outside and the hallways. They're doing a lot of good work there. It seemed like a good place. We saw them playing bingo. I went into the ballroom and the different game rooms. It was nice.

We toured the Cogir of Manteca Senior Living. We liked it, but it didn't have the -- it had the amenities and all of that, but it just didn't have the feel that we wanted. It was a good place. It was a nice place to visit, but I don't think my mother-in-law would want to live there. Their care wasn't bad. My mother-in-law got dizzy at one point, and they offered her food or orange juice, and they brought that right to her, so the care is good, but I don't think they'll go above and beyond like the other place. The staff was good, they were very friendly. I really liked the facilities. My mother-in-law didn't, because she doesn't do most of the stuff that they offer.

I visited Cogir of Manteca Senior Living two years ago when I was looking, and it was really dark when you walk in (and that was what I was expecting). This time I opened the door, and it was bright and clean. it was just beautiful. They did upgrades to it, and it was really nice.
Tina was very, very good, very informative, and very nice. They primarily have 1-bedrooms, and they are all upgraded with granite countertops and white cabinets. They have a workout room and different rooms for different gatherings, and they are nice.
I brought my mom back on Sunday and we had lunch. The food was good. It was so yummy.
I saw people cleaning and wiping down the base boards in the hall and the handrails.

We visited Cogir of Manteca Senior Living and it was really good. It seemed really nice and probably one of our top choices because it is close to us. People were friendly and the place seemed really nice and clean. The other properties might be just as nice, but I'd like to keep my dad in Manteca. It is hard now with COVID because all of the activities are on hold, but they have a lot of amenities and activities, and it seemed like a nice place. The amenities included meals, linens, laundry service, transportation, and those types of things. They're pet-friendly and it seemed like a decent place to put a family member. The staff members were nice and professional.

Manteca Retirement Community - Happy Living by Cogir was great. The people were very nice and pleasant, and it had a nice and warm atmosphere. The lady during the tour was very professional and very nice. The one-bedroom and studio apartments were very nice and clean. They have all kinds of activities going on, and the meal we had was nice. They have a library, a game room, a TV room, and a comedy night once a month. The staff was professional, nice, and caring.

I visited Brookdale, and it was great. They were very friendly, very accommodating, and I enjoyed it. I was very impressed. I liked their concept, there were no specific times to eat, and they have menu choices. It was very clean and very nice.

Brookdale Manteca has both independent and assisted living. It's very nice and good, with nice people. We looked at five places and out of the five, this is the one I would pick. The rooms are very nice. The dining area was very attractive and looked nice. They have daily activities and they have tours. I liked Kim, the lady who showed us around. She was pleasant, professional, and nice.

Brookdale Manteca was way too small as far as the apartments were concerned. The staff was wonderful. You couldn't ask for nicer staff. The food was very good and the servers were very nice. Overall, I was very impressed with the staff and the cleaning. The place was very well-kept. I was surprised that the residents have full kitchens even though they get three meals a day. They have a full refrigerator and a small electric stove with four burners and an oven. The price was right.

I visited Brookdale Manteca and saw the reception, grounds, dining room, recreation area, and what they had available. Everything was excellent. The only negative for me was the distance from home and work. I was too far, and I don't think that would work for me.

Brookdale is very clean, very friendly when you come in, and has nice apartments. Mother is really happy there. The food and the price are good. She likes the girl who comes and clean once a week, and they have a good response time when she accidentally presses her call button.

I have lived in Brookdale Manteca for 16 months. My experience is pretty good. The food is up and down; sometimes its good and sometimes its average. Very few activities are available. I like the apartment. The majority of the employees are very helpful. The thing that stands out the most are the residents since the majority of them are good people.

The lady that I was trying to help moved to Brookdale in Manteca. I’m not sure what happened but somehow she ended up on the second floor and people on the second floor don’t get assisted. It's independent living on the second floor. I know she doesn’t need help taking showers, but she has been having issues, so she has to hire a couple of other companies to go and help her on the second floor. The facility seems old and a little bit outdated, but it is clean, nice, and smells good compared to a lot of places. It is really beautiful. The residents are all wonderful and very helpful, but the staff is not very organized. They have plenty of activities and plenty of things to do. They take them places. For someone who is social, it is a wonderful place because they get to know each other really easily, and there is always groups of people talking and stuff, but the lady that I’ve been dealing with isn’t involved in any of that. Overall, I have to rate it at a 3 and that’s just because it seems to take them so long to get any information.

I went to Brookdale Manteca. It was very nice and upbeat, but they want people who were able to walk around. At the time when I brought my husband’s sister to the facility, she wasn’t able to walk around. Also, she doesn’t speak English well, which is why I had to put her somewhere with bilingual staff. I did like the facility. The staff was very nice.

I will be moving mom to where she was before and that is Emeritus at Manteca. Basically I was just hoping it was as good as it was before. The room that she is going to live in is completely remodeled with new carpets, so it’s going to be really nice for her.
It was a very nice place, and every time I went in there I felt like its very welcoming and inviting; that is also the only reason I put her back there. It’s very homey and clean, and the people were very friendly when I walked in. The staff seems to be well-informed.

Emeritus at Manteca is very new and clean. The space is good. It had a good feeling about it, but the price was a bit high. The staff was very professional, but not very welcoming. They did discuss with us what they have as activities there. The surroundings are a little bit remote. It will be difficult for a senior with a car to get to any populated area or mall easily. Because it was so new, it was so pleasing. The size is good, although it is a little bit expensive.

I find Emeritus to be very satisfying. The staff is very friendly and helpful. It impresses me that they are very professional. The dining room is very nice.

My daughter chose Emeritus at Manteca for me. The staff was very nice. The food is not that good, but the new owner has said that they are going to bring in some dieticians, so I am giving them a chance to see how it will improve. Their activities are very few. I play their 2-dollar bingo and that's about it.

The people were really very nice at Emeritus but the place was not as well organized because I guess of some personnel changes going on. The rooms were nice but the bathrooms were dirty. They had restaurant sittings for longer periods of time. I wouldn’t feel bad putting my mother there.

Merrill Gardens is close to my house. The apartment my mother got is a nice 1-bedroom with full kitchen and a living room. Her room walks out into a courtyard with lots of trees and shrubs. The meals are up to her standards. People are friendly, courteous, and professional. Everything works there, so it's just a good fit.
