The Village at Kensington Place is big enough, but it's not humongous. The memory care unit has a fabulous setup. The rooms are clean. The food was great. I thought it was a really nice place. The people seemed very caring. The girl who was going to do the tour had something come up, and she asked if I would mind going with the head chef. The chef was wonderful. They sent me home with a fresh loaf of freshly baked cranberry bread and it was fabulous. They had an outdoor space in the back of the building. They have two other little areas where they can go outside.

We went to The Village at Kensington Place. Overall, it's a very nice place. They have everything. They have nursing staff, they administer medications, and they have someone clean the rooms once a week. In the memory care section, there are no kitchens in their apartments. Some of them have few cabinets, a refrigerator, and a microwave. Others don't even have that. So, the patient has to leave the room to get anything they want. There's a small kitchenette with snacks, coffee and other drinks they can help themselves to whatever they want. There are lots of activities that challenge memory. They have snack areas where they can just grab a snack, sit down and enjoy it. I looked at both memory care and assisted living. With assisted living, they have a small kitchen but no stoves. They don't want anyone cooking in the room. They have a microwave oven, a refrigerator, and a couple of cabinets, and that's it. The staff who toured me was very cordial, professional, listened to your concern. They're good listeners. They listen to their customer's requirements, and they'll show you what's available to help. They're all very good. The facility was spotless. There is no dust on the railings or anything. It's just beautiful and perfect. They have a nice yard in the back that is fenced in. They have long furniture and picnic tables. There's a walkway so you can take a walk around, you can take a ride in a wheelchair or use a walker. You can walk and go around the backyard.

My mother-in-law is at The Village at Kensington Place. They've been great so far. We chose the place for its location. They are very professional people, it is very clean, and it is homey. I have not tried the food because they are being very cautious right now, and so they are not having family dine in their dining room yet. They have art, karaoke, and dancing, they have jazz bands outside, and they take their residents on tours; there's a lot going on. That was the first and the last place I looked; there was not any need to look further. I think their price point was very competitive and very good, so we went with it, and the location was perfect for the family. Everything seems great. It is new, and there have been no issues or conflicts. They've been calling us to let us know how mom is getting along there. We just have peace of mind now where we didn't before. And I think there are more than enough activities for her there.

I visited The Village at Kensington Place. They were excellent. It was a little bit older than the other facility I visited, but still very nice, very comforting and warm. It seemed very home-like. I was very impressed with the staff as well. They had a nice entryway that had some landscaping, but I didn't get to go to any kind of common area or courtyard. There was ample parking, and it was easy to get to. I didn't get to see the actual room, only a blueprint floor plan.
