Experience at The Ivy Berkeley

Overall experience -fair. Difficult to find any place with independent living. It's really an assisted care facility meaning there is no privacy. It's because they're always checking on you to make sure you are okay. This is a new place and they are understaffed. Deliveries don't get delivered for days. There is no internal website so it is difficult to communicate. Every question/request must go through an overworked concierge. Daily schedules are posted in elevator, weekly menus are photocopied and must be retrie…

Our Dad’s 94th Birthday

Our father has been receiving stellar memory care at the Ivy Berkeley for the past 6 months. We reached out to coordinate his 94th birthday celebration at the facility, which turned out to be a brilliant success. Good food, family and lots of love. Thank you to [name removed], [name removed] and [name removed] for making it happen.

Excellent location

Generally good. Attentive staff. Decent food. Excellent location. Relatively small: 100 residents. Thus somewhat limited activities. Expensive. 7% rent increase set for later this year.

Not the right fit

We have since relocated my dad. We found the system generally unorganized - no one would show up to host activities, one server at meal times, meetings with management never led to changes that were promised, etc. It all became very frustrating for my dad so we opted to find a better fit. The facility is very clean, almost brand new. There are a variety of room sizes available.

It is a very nice facility. It just opened last year. There was a little construction happening on the first floor. Something to do with a private family dining room, if family comes to visit. Beautiful views of the bay. Nice outdoor areas.
