I am a resident of MorningStar Senior Living of Sparks. It's been very good. I moved here in March because my oldest son lives in Reno. And he found the place for me. The apartments are very big, they're roomy and they have a balcony. I do cook my own food because I am gluten-free, and I have Crohn's disease. But I see if I need something like tonight, I'm having a hamburger, so I went downstairs, and they gave me some pickles and French fries to go with it.
Right now, there's a shortage of staff because of the virus, but they try and get here to clean the apartment every week. It's just a shortage of staff, that's it.
They have bingo. They're having a Valentine's party tonight. They have Trivia, which I like, and art classes. They take you to the mall every so often. The library has very good books here. They have a movie theater, and they do that twice a week. For Christians, they have a Christian thing on Sunday and then a mass on Sunday on YouTube. Once a month, the priest comes in and says Mass for the Catholics.
I don't eat their food because I have Crohn's disease. I cook my own food and I go down there and eat at a table with my friends, it works out fine. The dining area is quite large; there are four people at each table. On the counter, you can order your coffee; if you don't want it until later, you can pour yourself a cup of coffee and take it up to your room. There's sugar and all kinds of teas, and they have Sprite for drinks. It's okay.
The activities are good. We have an exercise class too, and there's an exercise room. We could ride a bike or do whatever we want. I used to live in Sacramento, but here it's much cheaper and more reasonable.

MorningStar Senior Living of Sparks was a very nice facility. It's a combination of independent and assisted. It has a nice presentation. They have one- and two-bedrooms. It's much more expensive than the one down in San Diego, but it's a brand new complex. They have recreation rooms, dining rooms, meeting rooms, movie rooms, and exercise rooms. It's all very nicely done. The tour was excellent. The staff during the tour was pleasant, outgoing, and attentive. We checked out the menu and the dining room, but we did not eat there.

MorningStar Senior Living of Sparks is at the top of my list. The size of the room is the only one where I thought I could actually bring with me the things that are important to me, and most of the rooms have an outdoor space balcony or a patio. It was not my favorite location overall; but when you consider that you're going to spend 24/7 in a place, you want it to not feel claustrophobic.
The staff was fine. She answered my questions. Unfortunately, we had to wear masks because they have assisted living on site as well. We went around with masks; it was the only tour that I took out of five that I had to wear a mask. It's very hard to judge people when they're all covered up.
The atmosphere was cheerful. The people were engaged and interacting. It was a very comfortable, relaxed, warm, and friendly atmosphere.
The dining room was open all day. They do not close until after dinner. I like that a lot, and they also provide a two-meal a day plan rather than three. You can get three if you want to pay a little extra. Having a full kitchen in the room, most people don't bother with breakfast; they stay in their apartment. I was delighted to hear that I didn't have to pay for three meals a day.
I guess I have to say all the usual ones, they have some kind of exercise room. They have a nice library. The layout is attractive. There are rooms where you can sit down and play cards, board games, or what have you.
It was one of the most busy places that I looked up. They're established and have been there for about 10 years. They are pretty much full, and everybody is busy doing things. The whole atmosphere was attractive, and the schedules were all very workable.

We went to MorningStar Senior Living of Sparks last month. They were very nice and very helpful. They had several apartments that were vacant and ready to be moved into. They were a little smaller than the one that we have ended up with in the other place. They were clean, and they had nice floor plans and stuff like that. They had a courtyard, and they had places where you could barbecue outside and that sort of stuff. I think we saw the movie room.

I liked most of what I saw at MorningStar. The people were very friendly and very nice. They showed me all around. It just seemed like it was friendly. What impressed me was we went up in the elevator at some place, they had a little room there where they had coffee and donuts, and different things up there, and the people could come up there whenever they wanted to, and they could sample the food, and I thought that was neat.
They were thorough. You have to have your temperature done and you have to go through quite a bit because of the virus. The other places didn't seem to be as strict as they were. I really liked that place. It just seemed like it was nice and clean. It didn't have a swimming pool, but everything else was pretty good. The staff member who assisted us was very good. She was very friendly and very nice.

My mother moved into MorningStar of Sparks, and so far she really enjoys it there. She's meeting a lot of people. She's in independent, and their staff is very friendly and helpful. They have a salon, but my mom has not used that. The apartments have washer and dryer hookup. They do laundry for a fee, housekeeping weekly, change their bedding, and serve three meals. They have a continental breakfast and serve lunch and dinner. She enjoys the food, but the menu is pretty much the same week to week. They have a theater room and a small gym.

I've been in MorningStar of Sparks for several years. I think it does very well. The buildings are well-maintained, and the apartments are a nice size with big bathrooms and lots of closets. They also have covered parking and quite a few activities, like bingo, and they take us places every other week like to the parks, casinos, to shows. You have to sign up and go. They have a medic three days a week where they take you anywhere you need to go, and if you need to go more than five miles, they charge you for that. The staff overall is great, but they have a lot of turnover and if they have the same people all the time that would have been better. I understand it's pretty standard here, but it would be nice to know the same people and so forth. The dining room is a big open area. The building is four stories high, and they have the main library on the second floor, which is a good size and well-taken care of. They also have a smaller library on the first floor by the coffee shop, and another one in the third and fourth floor and in the assisted living. They've got lots of books around for people to read.
