I liked Kensington a lot, and I liked the people. I liked the setting -- it was downtown. It was very nice, the food looked good, they had activities, the rooms were nice, the staff was nice, and it was in a good location. They had activities and services on-site. It would have been a good choice for my mother. They just didn't have any room.

My Mom and Dad moved here this year after they both had double pneumonia. They left a home where they had lived for 30 years. My Dad said he felt like he was finally living in his golden years. My mom loves it because she doesn't have to cook, clean and do laundry. The staff from the cleaning ladies to the administrator are the best in the world. They take excellent care of my parents. They have their very own 2 bedroom apt. everything is handicap accessible. I have even been able to stay the night with them. I would highly recommend the Kensington to any and all.
