I toured Kensington Place, and it was excellent. I liked the appearance of the facility and all the features that they offered. It was just very inviting. The prices were a little steep, and that was the only disparity. Other than that, it was nice. I really liked it. They had amenities. There was a room where they do arts and crafts, and that was really nice. They had a nice courtyard and nice dining areas. The hospital was located not very far, though there were not a lot of restaurants in that area.

I like Kensington Place. The people there were great. The location is good. The rooms that I saw were nice. I think that they would be so accommodating to people, even people that didn't need help and those that needed a little bit of help, they're there to help you also. They have a library, a TV room, a pool table room, and a game room where you can play games. You can go to church services of your choice. The food was wonderful. They have different things on the menu that you can choose from. The service was nice and helpful. I'm on oxygen, and I had to move my oxygen tank all around, so they were very accommodating. I asked them about helping with bath and all that kind of stuff, even though as independent, and they have people on staff that will help you with your bath. They can help you with your laundry if you need help. It's good to know that somebody is there to help you if you need help.

The rooms are comfortable and the common areas are very nice. The fitness room and the Media room provide lots of entertainment and exercise. There's always something going on to be involved in if you want to be actively engaging with others.

I went to Kensington Place Retirement Community. It was fabulous, and I really liked it. The staff was friendly, helpful, and definitely gave me all of the information. It was very nice. Someone was there doing an activity like for tie-dye t-shirts with some of the residents. Overall it just seemed like a very happy place.

Kensington Place was in quite a bit older building, and it was right next to a medical facility. It had a beautiful setting, backed up to a woods, there was a walking trail through there, and overall, I liked what I saw. The staff member was very helpful, and I thought she did a very good job. I just saw residents in the lobby picking up mail, the residents were a bit older, and everybody seemed to be staying in their rooms.

My mom really liked Kensington Place. They had a chef from Cameron that runs the place. The rooms were a nice size and we were impressed with the condition and how everything looked. We ate there and the food we had was really good.

I liked almost everything about The Kensington; that's where I wanted my mom to go. They had a deck where they can go out and sit, patio tables with umbrellas to get some fresh air, and a little walking path outside for exercise.

Kensington Place is the cleanest place that I have ever walked into. The staff was very friendly. However, I could not afford it. The community was beautiful and centrally located, which is nice. I wish they could make it more affordable.

Kensington Place seemed fine, but the kitchen appliances were very cheap. They seemed to have plenty of things, and there were people around.
