Not the right fit

Her room was small for her cost. Mother was not fond of the meals. Cleaning wasn't done as said it would. Only 1 elevator felt kind of shady. They didn't have an activity person until she was leaving. And WORST. Folks move in sell their properties. Then EVERY YEAR Cost goes up $[removed]or MORE... THE MAIN reason she got out after the MANDATORY 3 MOS.. SHE was BLESSED to be able to keep her trailer MAKING sure it was a good fit. Also from an outsider.. Many folks appeared that they should NOT be living in thi…

I want to share my positive experience regarding my search for independent senior living and the exceptional care my family received. I initially started my search online. I reached out to A Place for Mom. I was immediately impressed by the prompt, professional, and thoughtful support from [name removed].

Overall would recommend

The staff have been helpful and courteous. The facility is clean. The only complaint I would have is they didn't have the ride service for a while. They got someone new to fill in. I would definitely recommend them to others.

I visited this facility

Holiday Essex House was a very nice place and well taken care of. The people were very nice. Everything was right where it needed to be. They did a really good job of explaining everything to us.

I visited this facility

We chose Holiday Essex House for my father because the pricing is right. They're on the lower end of the spectrum. It is kind of a nice, wide, open place. There were people all around. The facilities were really nice and well cared for. The staff was very helpful and very knowledgeable. We're actually going back today to sample the food. We saw people sitting outside, walking around, and out in the hallways.

This is a very nice facility. I just don't think I can afford it. I like the idea of 3 meals a day. They also provide transportation for doctor's appointments and other outtings.
