Overall a nice facility

It was a very nice place but my mother was very unhappy because she wanted to be home, but the facility was just fine no problems - well one problem they couldn't find the morphine on the last day of my mother's life. Give her some relief from pain, but the hospice worker finally showed up with morphine at the facility. Just the person on staff at that time of the day just didn't know where the morphine was but other than that, the place was very well taken care of and a very nice staff, very professional.

Our ideas and practices are anchored in

The Poetry of Aging

, our platform for living at Sonnet Hill Senior Living.
Like a poem, each person has their own pace, style and personality. We truly believe that there is no right or wrong way to be yourself.
As lifespans get longer and research gets deeper, we are able to better understand the elements of aging. And while we all have some common needs – like safety, health and comfort – we have many more dynamic needs that shift from year to year, month to month, day to day.
We design our spaces, craft our programs and train our people all to meet different needs at different times. We have a commitment to meeting our resident’s not where they “used to be” or “should be,” but right where they are at.
You are your own poem. Brief or verbose, metered or whimsical, simple or complex—no matter what your style—you are perfect in your own way.

Sonnet Hill Senior Living

The management part like Sales was excellent however that's where the communication stops. It was not a good experience at all. [name removed] only stayed there three nights and a half a day and I moved her out. The fact that you need someone to let you up the elevator, someone to let you in the room, it took me forever to find someone just to let me in the room to see [name removed]. All I could think about was what if there was a fire they do not have enough staff to unlock all the doors and evacuate The residence. The staff that takes care of the residence, I did not find them very friendly, I believe there was one person that I thought was really kind

Modern Facilities with Fine Dining

The staff is welcoming and experienced. This smaller size assisted living facility is modern and very clean. The location is close to freeway access and a local market. The only downside for my mother-in-law is not having many Spanish speaking residents.

Review for Sonnet Hill Senior Living

it's a smaller facility so there are times when the staff are slower to respond if they are helping others but overall very good. Of the food I tried I was very impressed, my mom is a foodie though and has a high bar so there are days she's disappointed with the food options but again overall I think the food is very good and I think they provide a good variety, so that means sometimes it might not be my moms favorite.- Overall very pleased with the care, staff and the facility and it is a great value for the money.

Definitely worth a look

It was very clean, friendly staff, the shared rooms were actually quite private, and the price was closer to our budget. I would recommend Sonnet Hill Senior Living as long as they didn't need nursing care because it isn't a nursing home.

Friendly and caring staff

What we really like about Sonnet Hill is the size. Not too large or small. My mom doesn't have motor skills so cannot do much to participate in the community

Tour of Sonnet Hill

Sonnet Hill looked like a great facility. It is brand new so when we took a tour there were very few residents and staff members. I think it seemed like a place that would be a better fit for younger, more independent individuals. It was a great place but just not the right fit for my loved one.
