The rooms are very nice. The people that work here are great.

My mother-in-law loves it over at Manor Pines Convalescent Center. I've been there 3-4 times a week, it's very nice. I haven't seen her room yet because they don't let you in all the way, but I've seen the visitor area outside and everything. The building itself is immaculately clean; she said she loves the food, and she's very happy there. The staff would call me or everything, whatever they do; they keep in contact with me so I respect that. The people are very warm.

My friend is going to Williamsburg Landing. It's close by so friends can come and visit easily. It's also a couple of miles from his two main doctors. The facility is very nice, upscale, and friendly. The staff is friendly and helpful. They have a lot of books in the library, a fireplace, and a nice community room with tables set up for games and puzzles.

Villa Rio Vista was quite shabby and kind of rundown. It definitely needed sprucing up and all of the residents were just sitting around and not engaged in any activities. It was not a very welcoming place. The person who assisted us was excellent and appeared to be very caring and knowledgeable. It's just that the place was not up to par and needs a complete overhaul. I looked at a small 1-bedroom and it was OK, but you have to walk through the common area where people watch TV to get to that room, so the layout left a little something to be desired as well.
