The Wellington at Arapaho was the best out of all the places I visited. I liked the courtesy and professionalism of the staff. They were willing and very honest about everything. Overall, I just felt like I trusted them, and that was probably the place I would pick for my mom. Meals were optional. You can come and go as you please. They had a shuttle to take the residents to places. The room that I saw had a small fridge, a microwave, and a little stove top. The washer and dryer were just down the hallway. They had a courtyard and walking paths around the building. The senior citizen center was just half a block down the street, which is such a convenience because you can have all the recreation centers for the senior citizens by just walking half a block.

My dad was at The Wellington at Arapaho. It was like a family there. The staff were very caring with the residents. I liked the location. It was very close to me. I also liked that they had a lot of activities. Every Friday, they had some kind of happy hour. It wasn't necessarily an alcohol happy hour. Instead, they would have either a watermelon activity, like a Hawaiian theme or other things like that. They had transportation. They went to places, such as the store or somewhere else they wanted to go.

My mother is at The Wellington at Arapaho. I like it. It's modern and pretty big sized. She is in a wheelchair, so she has plenty of room to roam around in. I like it better than the facility where she was previously at. I've been happy with the services. They tend to my mom's needs, they take care of her, they tell her what they're gonna do before they do it. For helping her out of the bed, getting her dressed or going to the bathroom, they always tell her upfront what they're getting ready to do, and I like that idea instead of just grabbing her and pulling her up out of bed. I like that. Her other place didn't seem to do that as much. They have socials every Friday at 3:00, so she gets to meet other people in there. They seem to be having weekly activities. She gets her hair done there, which she likes. It's convenient. The food is average.

The Wellington does a good job interacting with their residents. My dad was on the Independent Living side, until he needed more assistance. They provide a comfortable environment. The staff I have interacted with are very nice, pleasant and really care about my dad's well-being. The activity directors TRY to get him to participate in activities. They provide 3 meals a day, weekly laundry service and daily housekeeping.

The Wellington at Arapaho were very welcoming. I think it was like the second one on my list. I got to meet the majority of their staff, I met all their nursing staff, caregivers, I met the manager. I've seen people in passing, they were all very nice and welcoming. It was a pretty big facility, pretty, up to date, and their apartment was nice. It was also in a good location and wasn't too far from where I live. It was a nice facility, it just came in a little bit higher. It was well kept. The dining area was pretty big.

I have two friends from church at this facility. The people who work there are so very helpful and accomodating. Bryan B. and Brett who are involved with management are incredibly caring and helpful. We started in the Assisted Living area during the covid crisis so it was difficult for everyone because of the isolation. But the staff worked so hard to make it as good as possible. Later one of the residents moved to independent living and the other stayed in the assisted living area. And again Bryan and Bret have been extremely caring and helpful through all theses changes. The rooms are great, some with walk in closets. The activities are limited due to the covid, but they do what they can. I would highly recommend this facility and the people there.

I had to be very persistent to be able to view The Wellington at Arapaho. The person that showed me the place didn't really know anything about it. It's not as well kept as many of them. I got there on a weekday, so there weren't very many staff members around. The facility itself didn't seem quite as nice as some of the other places I visited, and it's a little more rundown. They showed me the memory care side also.

Everything at The Wellington at Arapaho was excellent. The residents all seemed happy. The staff was nice and courteous. The tour was excellent. I saw the people eating, and the food smelled great. They had an area for arts and crafts and puzzles, and a little fitness room where they could do PT.

The one that I like best is called The Wellington (The Wellington at Arapaho). The people who live there were super nice. I would recommend this community. They have the 3 meals. They have all kinds of things for the people who live there to do. They have a lot of options for the people who live there. They have pretty much everything. They have lots of activities. They have games, and they have exercise programs. They have pretty much all the same things all of them do -- e.g., places where they can get their hair done. They have all different types of games. My mom has already decided that she likes The Wellington.

I signed up with Wellington; they have assisted living and independent living, and right now I needed assisted. Everything looked good to me. The staff was confident and nice. They had two dining areas, which looked very nice, and a lot of activities, like trips to the store.

My mother has been living in Wellington since the end of March. I’m not entirely happy with it right now. I was promised something that is no longer being offered, and it was making me upset and hindering my mother from being as independent as I’d like her to be. The facility has been going through remodeling since we’ve been there. They’re taking out the carpet that I like and putting in ugly ones. The facilities are nice for independent living and not so nice for assisted living, and my mother lives in the assisted living. She reports that the vegetables are often overcooked, which a lot of the seniors liked, but any breads or desserts are very good. There’s a salad bar and dedicated servers in the building. She’s very happy with the lady who does her hair.

I visited The Wellington at Arapaho. The staff was wonderful. They showed me around while they were in the process of remodeling. The rooms were small but very nice. The price was good.

I chose the Wellington because of the price and what they offered. Everything is fine except that the food gets a little bland. I have plenty of room here. The staff is very good, everyone is so friendly. Their activity directory is one of the best.
