PositiveReview for Holiday Willow Grove
Staff are nice. Care is good. Food has gotten better, activities are ok but unhappy how it seemed that prayer group that was started was not welcomed at WG. Cleanliness is ok. MiL was disappointed about only elevator was inoperable for over a week (9 days).

Cockroaches in my dad's apartment ; he had 8 dead ones when we moved him out! He was constantly complaining of roaches. We sprayed they sprayed once a month! Food was tasteless. Very small portions served. Fancy names poor quality .The maid only spent 15 minutes cleaning the room and changing the bed once a week. Staff were friendly. Room size was nice. The bathroom was not cleaned correctly.

CriticalNeed better communication
Communication was not that good. Maybe a staffing situation when we were registering. But even now, staff is minimum with help. Kind of attitude of "that's the way it is". The elevator was out for 5/6 days last week. They delivered food to people but no communication and/or updates on what/why was going on. Just "that's the way..." .

She loves her one-bedroom apartment as far as the size and that it has windows that look out on the woods. She finds some of the staff very helpful. She doesn't care for the food.

CriticalReview for Holiday Willow Grove
The apartment itself is pretty great in size and they live in there comfortably. The activities are good too. However, the staff don't care about the residents, the food has gotten really bad, they don't provide the cleaning services that are paid for (though the facility itself is kept clean). We're looking to move them elsewhere

PositiveMy Holiday Willow Grove experience
Staff friendly & caring. We have a great 2 bedroom corner apt. with lots of windows. Very clean (remodeled after burst pipe a few yrs ago). Food 80%. Only one chair exercise class by a real person. Others are on You Tube - but it's a good 1/2 hr workout. There is Bingo 3-4 x a wk., Corn hole, Rummikub, Mexican, Rosary Communion, 4pm service on Sunday, Bible Study, prayer group, Monthly book group, arts & crafts. etc. I do cook some despite no stove. I have a toaster oven, crock pot, rice cooker (it can boil eggs).…
