My mother stayed in American House Westland Hunter for a year. It was very clean. People were engaging. It was a very nice apartment. The staff and services were exceptional. They were very, very helpful. They had limited activities because it was during COVID, but they took them out to the stores for shopping and out to lunch. They did bingo. They had karaoke. They had a bar night, where they served them alcohol. They had movie night. She had her own kitchen, so she really did not use the food much.

The staff and residents of American House Westland Hunter were very friendly. The lady was very professional. The residents were outside of their apartments/rooms taking part in an activity or socializing in various areas of the building, and that was very nice to see.

We visited American House Westland Hunter. The reason I like that one was because the place was clean, and I like that they have different activities for the seniors. The staff was friendly. I like the setup. The place was friendly, and it was welcoming. The director came in and introduced himself to me. It was organized, and it was decorated nicely for the holidays. They had a salon, a workout room, and different activities on different days. Also, they have outings outside of American House.

American House Westland Hunter was gorgeous. The rooms that we looked at weren't occupied, but they were great. The staff was great too. There weren't any people in the dining area, but it was nice, clean, and some people were cooking there. I believe that those were the meals that they were taking upstairs. They have activities, a bus that would take them to the store, movie nights, and card playing. The rooms were small, but they get the job done.

My visit at American House Westland Hunter Senior Living was nice but short. It didn't have the 2 bedroom apartment that I wanted, and the rooms were too small.

I think American House - Westland Hunter is overpriced for what they offer. The staff who gave us the tour was very informative and very nice. One of the things I did not like is they do not have apartments, only rooms. They have a lot of activities and a community television but no TV in the rooms. Every day they have something going on.

American House had friendly people, and it was very clean. The people were also very attentive. They seemed to always check on their patients to make sure everything was OK. The food was good, and the activities were great. I saw a one-bedroom with a walk-in closet and walk-in bathroom. It had brand new carpets, a refrigerator, a stove, and a sink. Everything was perfect. They had bingo, date nights, and movie nights.

American House was located close to some of our relatives. It smelled nice, and the lunch was reasonably good, but I am not sure that I was really impressed with the rooms that were offered. It was a three story building, and my mother-in-law is paranoid about elevators, which is a negative. They have activities, but I am not sure that they are going to be of interest to my mother-in-law. She is rather elderly, so she doesn't do crafts any longer and has trouble getting around. It is a matter of interest, and I am not sure it's American House's fault.

My mother was looking at a place close to the area, and we found American House. I saw there were interactions with some of the staff, like they were listening music and stuff. I noticed there were residents working on crossword puzzles, and some were playing cards in the lobby.

All I can say is everything is good at American House Westland. I have no negatives to say about it. The rooms were very a good size. The menu was good, as well as the food. The staff seemed like they go above and beyond. The residents get along well together and are very supportive of each other. It was a very nice and pleasant experience. They are doing some construction, and they are changing and upgrading the place. They are improving the place.

We choose American House for my client because of its price and location. The staff is good and the rooms are okay. It is a nice facility. The rates as compare to other places are better, but it is a costly thing for our senior. If they are looking and they have the money to afford it, I will refer them to that facility.

We just dropped in American House without an appointment and it didn't look very clean to me. The assisted living people did not eat with the independent living people. The staff was okay but they didn't know we were coming and they were not wonderful.

My dad has been living at American House before we transferred him. The staff that took care of him was good. My mom lived there too before she passed away. They had activities which were good but my dad was just not interested. They also had a van that took them out shopping sometimes.

When we inquired at American House, I was impressed with the facility. I liked the surroundings and the area. The staff seemed to be accommodating. I also liked their activities for the residents. However, I was in an electric wheelchair and their handicap facility didn't fit me. We could get into a room, but, the shower wasn't that accessible.

I liked American House. I wished my mother could have stayed there because I knew it would have been better if she was there. They had a large dining room. They had apartments with stoves and refrigerators. They had transportation. They took their residents on trips. They had people come in to do their hair. However, she couldn't afford to live there. I would recommend them to others.

From what I saw of American House, it seemed like a decent assisted living facility. They often had events going on for residents. There were also occasional trips to the store, movies, and even a boat ride. The staff seemed helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable of the residents and their families. The food didn't seem that great but it was not some awful cafeteria food. The staff helped a good deal and showed up when called/needed. As with any place like this there was a issues time to time but nothing significant. The facilities were nice. Both interior and exterior looked new and kept up and provided a nice atmosphere. In general the residents seemed satisfied but most of that depends on their own mental state. Some nice extras that I saw was the salon that they have for appointments once a week and the drop in doctors, physical therapists, and other medical professionals.

I looked at many places before I chose the American House for my Grandmother. Their staff is amazing, they really care about the residents. They are reasonably priced, it's very well maintained, the menus are very well planned and offer choices to the residents. They have many activities and plan trips for the residents. If there is ever an issue they promptly take care of it. They offer good advice for residents families about programs that could help out for whatever type of situation you may come across with your family member. Over all I would highly recommend American House assisted Living facilities.

This facility is nestled in the community of Westland, MI a western suburb of Detroit, MI. It is surrounded by well groomed lawns with many large trees on a boulevard of newer condominiums, walking paths, and is close to shopping and public transportation. Upon my many visits to the facility I was always greeted by welcome smiles from the staff and other residents. Upon entering the vestibule, each visitor must sign in with their name, time of visit and the name of the resident you are visiting. You must also sign out when you leave. Once approved you are let in to the "Grand Room" with adjacent dining area. This well appointed living room is to be enjoyed by residents and visitors alike. I noticed a few residents playing a friendly game of cards at a nearby game table ( there were several ) other residents enjoying the companionship of each other while working together on a jigsaw puzzle and still others sitting comfortably while chatting with their visitors. It is well lit and cheerful. On my many visits I witnessed the phenomenal care given to the residents from the Nurse Assistants, Housekeeping and Management staff. The facility provides the residents with 3 nutritious meals, well planned weekly entertainment events and scheduled outings to local interests for those that are ambulatory. Each suite though not large boasted a small but modern fully equipped kitchen, living/dining area, safety grip bathroom and bedroom. Many residents enjoyed the flexibility of preparing small meals and or heating up left overs brought by family members. The price was excellent and based on the level of care each resident needed; from minimal care to more advanced care. We shopped other facilities in the area but for the amenities we found at American House Westland-Hunter Senior, they could not be beat. Thumbs up!
