I liked Van Mall. The place was very nice and very welcoming. The person who showed me around knew more about what I was looking for. She gave me more information than I usually get when I'm touring, so I was very pleased with her. I picked up their brochure and it showed me everything that they had, but I didn't notice any specific activities. They did have an activity room. Its location is very close to the shopping center, which I like, because I don't have a car anymore, and I could easily take my scooter over there to shop.

Van Mall was fine. The staff was friendly, but the rooms were rather small. It was very overpriced.

One of the nice features of Van Mall was that we were looking for a continuum of care. They have independent living, assisted living, and memory care as well. We thought that was a good concept. The thing that struck me about it was having to move into a much smaller space. I felt awfully cramped in this place. They have pretty much all the standard kinds of things. They offer transportation, trips to places, there was a pool table, they had a bunch of different groups, people who are interested in playing Bridge or Pinochle, that sort of thing. They have a small library for people who want to read. They were not as fancy as some of the other places I went to, but they had perfectly pleasant surroundings. I didn't meet much of the staff except the one person who took us on the tour. There was no big interaction between me and the rest of the people. There weren't activities that particularly interested me.

When I walked into Van Mall, it was like walking into a very comfortable cozy home. The people there were happy, laughing and talking together -- not only the employees but the people who lived there. It just presented itself as a very welcoming place. We liked it because it was very homey, and it had very friendly people. They had an exercise room. There was a lady leading several of the people who lived there in drumming, and it was very beautiful listening to them. They had their movie room. I thought my mother would really enjoy there.

Van Mall is the one that I’m considering for my brother. I like the family atmosphere, the good competent staff, and its nice facility. I would give them a 4, but there are some things that they do not include.

We didn't like Van Mall as much as the other place we visited. It didn't have a pool nor a wide range of activities. The rooms were fine.

She was at Van Mall for four years. The rooms were good -- nice spacious rooms -- and the staff for the most part was great. The situation with my grandmother was she was on all of their services, and things didn't get done all the time. Yes, I would recommend.

Our dad lived in Van Mall Retirement. It was very nice and beautiful. The food is great, and they have lots of activities like watching movies. They were wonderful and very helpful. My dad is pretty happy and satisfied there. The place is very well kept, and it is nice place to be.

Van Mall is a fabulous community. The staff would bend their backs to do anything; they are great. They are very caring, and they know my step-mom's first name, who she is, and where she belongs. We have eaten there several times, and it's great. Their dining room is like a restaurant. Their menu changes daily, weekly, or monthly. She has an apartment, and it is beautiful. They do have all kinds of activities -- anything from going to the symphony to gong to the mall to shop. My stepmother has early Alzheimer's, and she is in a specific group aimed at activities for her needs. There are four other ladies in that group, they have one staff member who does memory exercises, and that kind of thing with them. She spends at least two hours a day at that group, and it's wonderful.
