Facility is beautiful and the space is great. However, the Marketing/Admission (?) person was not organized and appeared to tell us what she thought we wanted to hear. She did not listen to me nor my husband’s questions. Inconsistency in answers.

The room that I saw at Williamsburg Senior Living Community was a good size and not cramped. It had modern amenities, the layout was nice and practical, and the staff was nice.

My mother will move into Williamsburg Senior Living Community. My mom thinks she'll be happy with it. The only thing I don't really like about it, is they only provide two meals a day, instead of three, and if you want a third meal, you pay for it extra, so I don't like that about it, but the facility itself is nice. The room is very nice, but the doorways were narrow, and she could barely get through with her walker. The staff was nice, but what the lady told us when we were there was not completely accurate about the laundrya. She said normally they charge for the laundry. I told her the other place I looked at, the laundry was included. She told me they would go ahead and throw in the laundry. Okay great, then the person that was over her said "no we can't just do it indefinitely, we'll do it for a year." So, I wasn't real happy, one person told me one thing, and another told me something else. I felt like they should keep their word about it. We met with a couple of residents, we said hello.

Our tour at Williamsburg was excellent. In fact, had my father not passed away, we would have moved my parents there. The food was very good. We found nothing about Williamsburg to be objectionable. We were very impressed with it, that's why we were seriously considering moving my parents there. We found everyone there to be very helpful.

Williamsburg Senior Living Community was closer to downtown, but they don't have a nursing home. My visit was great. I knew someone from my city was there, and she had brownies to give to a lady in a wheelchair and they were laughing and talking. I really would like to have gone there, but they didn't have the nursing home. The staff took us through all the things that we would need to see. They had lots of things planned and speakers who come in. My friend said I need to come here and she loves it, and I did consider it. They were laughing and talking and having fun with each other, but I don't want my son to have to move me again. The staff was very knowledgeable and told us about rooms. When I told them I don't like the showers, they said they would fix it, but I would have to unfix it when I left. The dining area was nice, and they could sit in groups, but they could sit anywhere. It was nice and pretty big. The chefs come to the dining area because they know people are finicky about their food. They all did a good job. The facility was good, and everything was well kept. They must have good cleaning people. We went into the rooms, and the ladies would tell us all about it. I didn't see anything wrong with any of them.

I liked Williamsburg Senior Living Community a lot. It's one of my favorites. I really enjoyed Tanya, who was very helpful. I got to meet a couple of helpful residents while I was waiting and got a first-hand impression of what it's like to live there. I was very impressed. The grounds and the way the place looked were very appealing to me. They had a library, and games and different activities throughout the week. I was really impressed with the dining room.

There were a lot of social activities at Williamsburg Senior Living, and the people were happy. The rooms were fine for one or two people, and the residents had to decorate the rooms themselves. The food was fine.

Williamsburg Senior Living Community is extremely friendly from the general manager down to the housekeepers. It’s nice and clean -- just a great living community. It has everything that my dad would want there -- a barbershop, a little place to eat breakfast and lunch, and many activities for his age. It’s very close to my house, and it’s a beautiful location. The apartment is absolutely gorgeous; the place seems to have more amenities. It makes me feel very good knowing that he’s there and well taken care of.

I liked the layout at Williamsburg. It was well-organized, very clean, and very neat, and the people were pleasant. I really did like it, and it was very nice and beautiful.

Williamsburg is very nice, and I would love to place my husband there if I could afford it. It’s probably one of the best in the city, and people care a lot. They have different programs; they have a garden for people who like to garden, and -- whatever your hobby is -- they go out of their way to try and facilitate you doing your hobby. The food is good, and it’s very home-like. The staff is very caring, and the residents seem to love them. It’s really a good place.

We love Williamsburg Retirement, and she is doing great. It’s providing her the right level of support. The room is a little small, but it’s just fine for efficiency and she is very happy with the quality of the food. They have do big rooms there, but we got the smaller ones. It’s a centrally located and caring community. The staff is supportive of the residents as well as the family. The grounds were beautiful; right now they’re re-doing some parts of the outside.

Williamsburg Senior Living Community was an older place. We saw one nice room, and we only ran into the lady who toured us. I think they had calendars of activities around the clock. It’s a large place. They have plenty of people there, and there are lots of activities for them.

My mother is in the assisted living at Williamsburg. They have been most cooperative and helpful in taking care of my mom's needs and in working with her medicines. She has a one-bedroom with her own bathroom and a kitchen with a microwave oven, sink and cabinets. The dining room and the living room are all in one big room, and she has closets. They do exercises, play bingo, and have various groups come in to sing, dance, and make Christmas ornaments. They have a lady there that comes by and does their nails without charge. We are very pleased with how they treat my mom.

Williamsburg seemed to be a very nice community. It’s well-kept, and she’s very pleased with the care. The rooms were a little bit larger. She gets housekeeping twice a week. She seems to be pleased with the dining room, and the food is pretty good.

My Mom has been a resident here for several years. Until recently, I would agree with the glowing comments. Nice facility, affordable, clean, activities. Will say that since new management, I have heard NUMEROUS complaints about the food and the fact that the managment team responds in an arrogant manner to complaints. These people may be old but, they deserve respect and to be listened to. Not told "if you don't like it give me 3 months notice, and leave". That is not an answer, that is a Blow off. I too am concerned about the lack of dietary structure by a real dietician. News flash, these people like to eat, let them. There are other meats on earth besides pork and chicken. Potatos and rice are not vegetables, they are a starch.
They have a tenant meeting on Tuesday the 12th of May. I am seriously considering going in order to get both sides of the story. If I do, I will re-post with results.

I found one, and my mom moved in already to Williamsburg Senior Living. I chose it because of the atmosphere, the location, what they had to offer, the people, the management, and the pricing. They are very helpful on giving some information and details of what they have to offer. When she first got in, they really helped her along to get established and have her settled in. They provide transportation and give them medications delivered there and things like that. The apartment she has looks nice. It's called a studio apartment with a nice kitchen, dishwasher, refrigerator, and microwave. Some places we looked at even for more money didn't have that. For the money, they had more to offer as far as the appliances and the layout. They got bingo and cards. They have ice cream and coffee in the evening. They bring them to the mall. Probably once a week, a bus brings them somewhere like Wal-Mart, the casino, or a store. She's been there for a month and a half, and so far so good.

My mother is living here now at 92 and enjoying the social aspects. She is not too excited about the food and I do have some concern that the food director is not a registered dietician. The facility is the most reasonably priced facility in the area and the staff has been great except the General Manager has not addressed a serious issue regarding the resident in the unit above my mother. The woman starts playing loud music at 4:30 in the morning and also late at night. It is taking a toll on my mother and I am worried it will begin to affect her health. The GM has been avoiding the issue but we are meeting with him tomorrow to resolve the issue.

I'm at Williamsburg Retirement Community. This place is surrounded by many stores and restaurants. Food is fabulous. There is an activity calendar put out each month. There are different social events taking place. Regarding services, they are great with their cleaning, and they clean the apartments every week.

She's already been placed at Williamsburg Retirement Community. The staff are awesome. They are great and very personal. The rooms were very large with lots of storage. The food is very, very good. They do have buffet style with white table cloths and flowers on the table. Their dining room is very elegant. They have bingo and trips to Walmart. They have a hair salon. They do exercise, do get togethers, and play games.

The people seemed happy there. They had one-person bedroom. But they did not have any skilled nursing available.

We opted Williamsburg Senior Living Community for our mother after several initial visits to the facility. The staff is friendly and engaging with good supportive service. The food was always freshly prepared with a loving, homely touch. They offer a lot of activities for the residents and some of them will take advantage of that, but it seems that most of the residents prefer to stay in their rooms and to themselves. Our mother has the privacy and independent lifestyle she loved with the advantages of a nice touch of personal housekeeping care and active community events. The place is well taken care of, and feels very homey, with many sitting areas, gathering space, and public rooms that feel like living rooms. They always decorate for the holidays, and the place seems festive whenever I visit. The individual rooms are fair sized: not huge, but big enough for everything the residents need, with closets, bathrooms, and small kitchen units with the bare essentials (fridge and microwave). The residents all appear to feel comfortable roaming and using the community as they please, they "get" that it's their home and that the common areas designed so that they and their guests could have a comfortable place to retreat and socialize.
