I visited this facility

I toured Boardwalk Apartments. They have a rec room, but they've got no other amenities. You guys do your own cooking and everything in the room. They don't have a central eating area. One thing I noticed when I was there that day was a lot of people were in wheelchairs or walkers. I had an appointment and I got in. The staff didn't have paperwork available, so she quickly ran a copy of something up, bunching numbers by hand on the paper, and then she was kind of hurrying to show me the room like she…

I am currently a Boardwalk resident in Olympia Washington. I want to comment on the Management Team at Boardwalk in Olympia. The management staff are simply amazing in their efforts to make this community the best it can be. The management staff are examples of people that go the extra mile to make Boardwalk a vibrant and safe community. Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication. Dean

What I like the best about Boardwalk Apartments is they were super quick and very efficient and really helpful with my mom, with getting all of her documents that she needed together. The gal that runs the place is nice. I know it has a courtyard. Other than that, I don't know the other facilities. It's near restaurants and about five miles away from a hospital. The apartments are not very big. They're small.

My sister-in-law is in Boardwalk Apartments. The rooms are small, but it's affordable. It's a beautiful location. I didn't deal with the staff too much. They had a potluck, bingo, and a crafts show. The day that we were there, they had a costume contest. They were really busy. The only thing was that the trash was across the street. There are two sets of apartments, one more of an Alzheimer's wing, which is not that bad. The other one is more independent living and she's in the independent …

The Management and Maintenance Team are not like your usual team. They have such an amazing energy working together that with any interaction with any of them is fantastic. They truly care and work hard to keep the community going. Many get confused with independent living and assisted, I have witnessed family members expecting the same level care as assisted and being down right disrespectful towards they staff, yet they continue to smile and help. Don't know how they do it. They are the unsung hero's wh…

There are many decent, friendly neighbors here. But morale in the building is currently very low. There is a large homeless population in the immediate vicinity and friction between the homeless and the elderly residents is high. The building has locked outer doors needing a key card, but that doesn't keep the homeless out. There are drugs and weapons coming into the building in the guise of so-called "family members" and "caregivers". Management seems powerless to keep them out. All of the…
