I went to The Colonnades. The lady who took me around was super nice and helpful too, nothing but positives for her. The rooms were a little tighter, and my mom came from a big house. It looked more facility-like, it wasn't bad, it was clean, there's nothing wrong with it, but it gave more of a facility feel than the other place. I can put my mother there and make it work. They have a courtyard area.

We went to The Colonnades for my mother. It is the nicest facility, certainly the most expensive, and it's very good. The people that helped us were very nice and helpful. My mother-in-law had been there for a few years, and so we got kind of familiar with their dining room back then, but I think there's been a lot of changes. It's the most expensive, maybe too expensive for us, although it's the best.

The Colonnades was beautiful. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. The director was just amazing. We went to the library, and she explained just how things worked, and the menu. If they weren't happy with anything on the menu, they had other options for them. She showed us a couple of models, and they all seemed very safety-oriented, and COVID secure. The staff members were just super, they would stop and talk and welcome us there. They had all of the things that the other places had. It was very nice, neat, tidy, and clean. It's close to the shopping center and there is UVA a few miles up.

The Colonnades had cottages and one-bedroom or two-bedroom apartments. They let you be assisted in your apartment until it's too much of a struggle on the staff, to the point that you have to be bathed and dressed. Otherwise, you could stay a long time. It's also a long-term care facility and a wonderful place for rehab. If someone goes into the hospital and has to go to rehab, you could walk over and do not have to worry about getting transportation to go visit. They had different sized cottages. If you have family visiting, they can stay in the apartments or stay in your cottage or apartment. They have a wonderful library where people have donated their own books.

The one I visited here was The Colonnades. They were extremely nice, and it was a very nice arrangement, except that I do not think my mom was ready to move everywhere. They offered a number of things in terms of coming up, and had dinner or lunch there a couple of time. They called me for follow-ups. They were not pressuring me in anyway. I thought the amenities at The Colonnades were ideal. The one-bedroom apartment was the ideal for my mother. I especially liked that they had physician on site, whom I actually knew. Having a physician on site would be fabulous. The Colonnades was well known here, and people knew it was a really good place.

The Colonnades was not setup for people in wheelchairs. There were no automatically activated exits where the parking was. The only automatic access door was the front door. The swimming pool had high steps in and out, and I could not get out of the pool. I ended up having to have my husband and a worker pull me out of it. The rooms were fine. The activities were good.

The Colonnades was a beautiful and lovely place. Everything was very nice, and everybody was very nice and friendly. It was not as huge as the other facility that I have visited, but they divided the apartments and the cabins. We had lunch there, and the food was excellent.

My husband and I stayed at The Colonnades for about six months. It was a good facility. It was clean. The food was pretty good. We left because of the increased cost and we felt too young to live in a facility.

The facility appeared to be in great condition. It appeared to be pretty new and clean with wide open spaces and lots of light. The grounds outside of the facility were very nice and kept up. The staff I dealt with were very courteous and helpful getting us in and moving us around to where we needed to be. The facilities welcomed us and set up an area for us to perform for the residents, who were excited to have us come in. After we performed we got to talk to many of the residents about music or whatever else they wanted to talk about. The staff also showed us around some of the different sections of the facility and some of the outside areas. I do believe many of the residents in this facility are from upper class from the surrounding areas. Since this was a special event where they seemed to be ready to welcome us and were ready, I did not see any negatives there.

My experiences with the Colonnades have been mostly positive. Interacting with the residents has allowed me to gain a realistic perspective of life at this facility. I can honestly say that I believe this is one of the best assisted living facilities in the Charlottesville area. The staff is always friendly and works very hard to ensure that their residents are well taken care of. On several occasions I have witnessed situations where staff member were busy and stressed but still maintained the level of respect and care that the residents deserve. The facilities can be described as elegant but welcoming. The maintinance crew does a wonderful job of keeping the grounds looking lush and beautiful. The inside of the building is well taken care of and pleasant as well. The abundant windows make the common area feel comfortable and welcoming. The few times that I have dined at the facility have been just "ok" although I would attribute that the dietary needs of the residents. Overall, I think the Colonnades is a wonderful assisted living community.
