PositiveMy loved one is currently a resident at Palo Alto Commons and everything about her experience at this facility has been great so far. Things seem to be working out well for her. The move in process went smoothly. The food is excellent. Communication with the family could be better, but is by no means insufficient. The housekeeping is okay, I have heard no complaints. I would recommend Palo Alto Commons to others.

PositiveWe took a tour of Palo Alto Commons during our search for a facility for a loved one. The staff at this facility were extremely helpful. They also offered many activities for the residents to participate in. Great place!

PositiveThe Palo Alto Commons Assisted Living section has proved to be an excellent place for my sister with early dementia to reside. It provides all of the services she needs in a very friendly as well as professional atmosphere.

PositiveThey took very good care of my mom at Palo Alto Commons. She recently passed away but I was very happy with the care they provided for her. They did a good job of making sure she was comfortable. They were very attentive and responsive to her needs. I liked that they had plenty of staff and did not seem overworked like they were at the previous community. There was a nice big beautiful courtyard. And they have a little aviary inside one of the common areas. I would definitely recommend this community to others.

PositiveMy mother stayed in the elite care needing a lot of assistance. We were happy with her care.
