Ivy Park at San Jose was like a very nice hotel. It's very clean and very neat. There are not a lot of residents there. They only house 80 residents and my mom likes to socialize so it's not suited for what we want for her. The studio that I visited was nice. They have an outdoor area patio, a library, a movie room, an exercise room, and all the amenities downstairs. It's on three floors and there are elevators. What I liked the most about this place was they do your laundry. Overall, it was nice.

I was very impressed with Ivy Park at San Jose. It was very, very nice. They have a lot of activities, which I thought were good, and I thought that the way the meals were set up was as though you were going into a restaurant. You had several choices that you could order from. It wasn't like a strict cafeteria where your choices are to take it or leave it. That was a nice environment. The staff was wonderful. I saw people eating and the food looked wonderful, too. It's very clean and very well-maintained.

Ivy Park at San Jose was fine. The lady was great and very helpful. It's a little bit newer, but the amount of area/green space was just limited.

I looked at Ivy Park at San Jose's assisted living and I liked it because it's open. I viewed 5 communities and Ivy Park is what I liked because in every room there is an emergency button. The room we saw also looked okay but I liked the emergency button the most. The studio doesn't have a living room so it looked more open. The 1-bedroom looked a little small. It had a little kitchenette but I don't remember if it had a stove or not. The people there looked happy. The place was very clean and open. The staff was also very friendly and very nice. The price was great. After touring 5 communities, this has the best price that we've seen.

I went to Ivy Park at San Jose. The staff was informative. The rooms were rather small for the studios. Other than that, it was nice, but I probably would not pick it even if it was closer. I wasn't too happy with the fact that the staff when I mentioned that my brother-in-law had Alzheimer's, right away, she wanted to put him in the memory care and I said he doesn't need memory care yet. We had a little discussion about that and she said he would have to have a doctor's permission because he might go out and wander. My brother-in-law doesn't do that, so she kind of set me off on the wrong foot. Other than that, it's a nice facility. It's just not something that I would pick even if it was closer.

Ivy Park at San Jose was very pleasant, it was nice. I met only one person, and she seemed very competent and pleasant. I saw the room, it was nice and has its own bath and a kitchenette. Their dining area was spacious, they had a salon, library, meeting room which could be a game room. I thought those were very nice.

I went to look at Ivy Park at San Jose. The studios were set up beautifully. I liked the way the bathrooms were set up; it was safer and there was plenty of space. I enjoyed it. To me, it comes down to location. I would rather have him up near closer to his doctor, but my husband liked Ivy Park better. It was a beautiful place, and I loved how they greeted us with our little names. The staff members were excellent. I saw nothing out of the ordinary. Everybody was friendly. And as far as cleanliness, it was very clean. They have a movie theater, a little movie room. They have quite a few different activities. They did send cookies home with us; it was excellent. I liked the menu there.

I went to look at Ivy Park at San Jose, and they were wonderful. The person I met with was very professional, very kind, considerate, and a very good listener. She gave me a tour of the facility. It's very clean and neat. I would say very nicely appointed, the area that it's in is very quiet, and there's a nice wooded area in the back where the seniors can sit. I met with the chef, and he was very kind also. They were very good at customizing the care my mom would get at Ivy Park. They were really great. The rooms were beautiful and really well designed to support the needs of seniors. The design, the features that it had, the bathroom, the little kitchenette area, were very attractive, like a little apartment. They had a lot of activities. I saw residents who were very happy and who were participating in the activities, so I liked everything I saw there. The person I met with talked about the precautions they were taking to prevent COVID within the facility, and I was very impressed with that.

We toured Ivy Park at San Jose for my dad, and I think it is very impressive. Overall, everything was pretty good, very well maintained, very appealing, and very satisfying. They communicate everything about the place and the services it provides, the skills they provide over there, and the other services available on site. They have a salon, gym, massage, and everything. The break room and the kitchen look pretty neat. The break room also has coffee and snack available all day. Some residents were playing some card game in the playing room and there were people reading books in the library area, too. They gave us a pretty good box of cookies.

It was interesting. The rooms were not as good as some of the other places I visited, but they were acceptable. I looked at a 1-bedroom and they were in the process of upgrading the place. The tour was very good. They have a dog, which was not quite as cute as some other places dogs, however, they do have programs where they bring in animals for the residents to enjoy for a short time. There were no shared rooms. They were all individual rooms. They have studios, 1-bedrooms, and 2-bedrooms. The staff was excellent.

My parents are in here. They're sharing a room now, and it's perfectly acceptable. They're well taken care of. It's in a separate wing. The memory care is all lockdown. The only reason they're in there is not because of their memory; it is because they need physically 24-hour care and that's the only place that gives it. The staff does a good job considering what they have to deal with. They have been good with my parents so far. I have no complaints.

We wound up placing my sister-in-law in last week. At the moment, it looks good. The people are very friendly and welcoming. The residents seem fairly happy and are well cared for, as far as we can tell. The staff seems to have a good attitude. The move-in went pretty smoothly. They've been pretty responsive to her needs so far. She has a little studio, and it's a nice size. It's like a generously sized hotel room, and the bath is very conveniently located. There's a closet in the hallway between the bathroom and the bedroom/living room area, and the entry is on the other side of the unit. As you enter the unit, there's a cloak closet, a little efficiency refrigerator, a sink, and a microwave. It's a fairly new facility. It's very well-planned, light, airy, and open.

It was quite good and we had a good time there. This was one of our favorite places.

What I like about it is that they are very friendly and they allowed dogs. We had my husband's parents in the facility. They have two bedrooms and two bathrooms so that is very nice. The staff is very kind and very helpful. The food is OK; average, but their dining area is a little too small. There are always people waiting, and it is little dark. I would absolutely recommend this facility. It’s very nice that they have doctors on call that come right to your room. They are also very, very welcoming and friendly and warm and caring. Everything is great about it. It was just too far away from me, and they didn’t like the dining area at all.

They had an immediate opening when we went there. I like the way it is set up. It is guarded, and they have a desk at the front door, so they can track who is coming and going. They did not put my mom into a dementia unit. They put her in just a regular assisted living. I like the friendliness of the people who work there. I like their attitude that they will take care of her, help her, and keep an eye on her. They have a lot of activities there. Her apartment has a nice view and is a two-bedroom. It is set up like a home away from home. We feel very comfortable having her there.

It was a very nice and clean facility. The person who showed us around was really nice. The building seemed nice; however, I think it was a little bit more compact than the other facility. Their rooms were nice and clean. Even the room that they had available was also very nice. Overall, it was a nice facility. One of the reasons we didn't go with this one was because it's really far from home. It's about 30 miles and it wouldn't have been an easy drive. This facility is not that accessible to us.

It was close to where my mom was residing so we chose this for her. The care, the amenities and the surroundings were better than the other places. They had a lot more planned organized activities, better quality and more attentive staff.
