Critical

not really a senior living place it has both regular residents and seniors and not really any amenities if that's what you are looking for? It's just an apartment in the middle of South Pasadena and it smells funny in the building...old carpeting.

This community is everything and more!!!

I cannot say anything negative about Golden Oaks. The staff and the other residents are all nice. The food is good. My apartment is great it has a full kitchen and a lovely balcony. This community is perfect for my need. I am within walking distance from everything, the library, hairdressers and restaurants. The community is clean and gets my recommendation.

In the time of need I was asked to help find a new home for my friend. With the help of A Place For Mom I was able to locate a nice community and get her into an apartment with new carpet. My friend brought her daughter for a tour and they both liked this place. It is a clean, welcoming community with nice and courteous staff. There is a library and senior center nearby which my friend liked. This community is in a good location.
