Garden Plaza

Garden Plaza staff are all professional and very knowledgeable and friendly. I was helping my mother to find an independent senior living community, I previewed several places on her behalf, Garden Plaza easily made the top 3 list. My mother visited the 3 different places and Garden Plaza was immediately her top choice. She is very happy with her apartment, food, staff, activities and has made new friends among the residents.

Not a standard independent living institution

Looks like a mountain lodge. Lots of couples and wide range of ages. Many people well into nineties and doing quite well. People are very friendly, not cliquish. Food is excellent. Wide variety. Daily salad bar. Always has an extra meal selection. It’s an older place that they are slowly modernizing. Staff is great. Has assisted living facilities as well.

Good value

Staff at Garden Plaza of Valley View are great listeners who do a good job of accommodating resident needs. The apartment sizes here are ok, not generous.

Review for Garden Plaza of Valley View

A truly caring and home like community. The staff are patient and knowledgeable and know how best to deal with mom's memory and cognition issues. We picked this location because of the location, thoughtful layout, and the presence of therapy in the location. We also got a lot of positive feedback from those in the elder care community.

Great Place

My wife and I spent about two hours having [name removed] show us around and answering our questions. She did an excellent job! The staff was most pleasant and we were impressed with the whole operation. At supper that evening we discussed our tour with our son and we then took him back to G.P. to see the place for himself. He too was impressed even though he didn't get to enjoy a good meal as we did earlier with [name removed]. In every way we were impressed and [name removed] couldn't have been more helpful. Thanks to all of you for making us feel welcome. [Names removed]

An outstanding environment

Garden Plaza Of Valley View provided outstanding assistance in making the transition from existing townhouse to Valley View, including recommendations on realtors to handle sale of townhouse. The Sales Director at Valley View was particularly helpful in addressing all of the details involved in the move and the adjustment to a new environment. The community at Valley View is truly a caring, friendly and loving group of people.

Great place to live.

IT FEELS LIKE AN APARTMENT AND NOT A NURSING HOME.

Meds not correct.

After the 20th day in the Assisted Living, meds still are not administered correctly. Correct height toilet took 15 days. Director will try to deny any issues are happening; lacking true customer service and care approach. Frustrating considering the cost.

Garden Plaza

My husband and I toured Garden Plaza and thought it was very beautiful. It was a very nice place and the staff was friendly, but the place was just too big. I think it was two stories high, and it was just a larger place than we wanted. The woodwork was also very rich and dark, and I wanted something brighter and lighter.

They were very nice, and the place is lovely.

I toured here when looking for options. They were very nice, and the place is lovely. It was fantastic. Katherine has been very helpful in helping me navigate the terrain with insurance and things. It is a bit more expensive than I am sure I can afford.
