We decided to stay here in Westside Garden Plaza, and we are very happy here. The food and everything is great. A lot of the people have been here for years, and they absolutely love it. You get that sense when you come in the door. Both the staff and the residents are all extremely friendly. We get three meals a day and wonderful services. The rooms are bright and larger than what we had. In the independent living, you have to press something in the mornings to let them know that you are OK. They will check on you if they don't hear from you. There is a lot of activity. It is very, very busy. They go on trips/outings to the casino, to go shopping, or to the doctors. The dining area is like being in a restaurant. There are tablecloths and the help seem to know your name.

I will be moving into Westside Garden Plaza. They were well organized and have a lot of amenities. They have a swimming pool. The apartments were bigger than anything I saw before. The room is very nice. It has a small kitchen, a fairly small living room, and the bedroom is surprisingly big. The bathroom was spotless. You walk into the shower. It has a walk-in closet. The activities are posted every day. There are so many things that you have to pick and choose because you can't do them all. They go out for dinner. They go to the symphony, and at least two days are available for grocery stores. It's very busy, and everybody was extremely friendly. The staff were very friendly and very efficient. They are good. The facility is spotless.

My mother is at Westside Garden Plaza. It's a beautiful 4-story building, like living in a hotel, it's got its little problems, but overall we've been happy. She's in independent living right now. The staff is wonderful, when I leave we sign in and sign out who were there to see, I'll stand at the front desk, talk to the ladies there, and they've been wonderful. They have a very structured puzzle table, 350 to 750 pieces are preferred, and there's TV in that area, so they can catch up on what's on TV, and do the puzzle. I've been there and have seen cornhole, there's a bus that takes them to doctor's appointments, and last summer they were showing a baseball movie outside, and it was very sweet. They do have a menu, they order off a menu, mom wished there were healthy choices, and they have gone through a couple of cooks, but she would never be hungry. I even ate there a couple of times, and was pleasantly surprised.

We looked at Westside Garden. My mother liked that it was very bright, the people seemed active and engaged, the staff seemed very good and very caring, and the rooms were very nice. They had apartments and studios, and we looked at the 1-bedroom. However, it didn't have some of the things my parents were looking for specifically like care down the road options. It sits in a fairly secluded location, and it was nice, shady, and well-cared for. They have a bus and scheduled doctor visits type of services.

We visited Westside Garden Plaza. It was very clean. The staff seemed very caring and friendly. They had ice cream socials.

They have been very helpful and accommodating. It's the best thing I can say about Westside Garden Plaza. They went out of their way to make sure things got taken care of with my dad, so we are really grateful to them. The food is fairly good, and they have very good activities.

I like the fact that everybody that we saw there at Westside Garden Plaza wasn't using a walker or a cane. It was not clinical looking. It had many apartment size choices. It is a facility that my mom can be in regardless of the state of her health. The menu is excellent, and the sanitation of this facility looked fabulous. The staff was very informative. The people that were walking around weren't wearing hospital type of clothing. They were very neat in appearance. They seem to be friendly, and they seem to know who their residents were as they pass amongst them.

I visited Westside Garden Plaza, but their cost was way too high. It has really nice apartments. I didn't see any of the single rooms. That wasn't what I was looking for. The staff was fine. It was just one lady that I didn't care for much. I think it is fairly safe there. I don't need a fully furnished apartment. I have my own stuff. I guess I would recommend them. Some of the staff is iffy. They could be a little bit more polite to the people they talk to like their prospective clients. I'm not saying all of the staff is impolite. A lot of the staff is very good. It was just one lady that I didn't care for. I'm not saying she isn't nice. It's just that my first impression was not very good.

I found Westside Garden Plaza through word of mouth. The staff is pretty good, and they try to keep track of things pretty well. This place is good in general. My father is in an apartment that has kind of a little living area with kitchenette and then a bedroom and a bathroom. He seems to like the food pretty well. They have an activities director, and they have people come in from the outside and do seminars and speak. They'll take them off for shopping trips, and they have bingo and card games. Compared to those I've seen that's in the same kind of price range, it is pretty good.
