Holiday Chateau de Boise

Betty

I liked Chateau de Boise because their dining was in a large, open, oval-shaped room, with lots of oval-shaped windows. You get a feeling of the outdoors while dining. I know several people there, and it's more of a homey atmosphere rather than an institution atmosphere. Everyone was extremely helpful and friendly. They have a workout/fitness center, Bridge, and other activities I want. I especially liked the ground floor, they have sliding doors, and you can just take your pet right out the door.

Chateau de Boise was an awesome place. The staff was very nice, friendly, and helpful. We ate lunch there, and a couple of residents who sat at the table with us were very nice. It was a very nice place. They got back in touch with me and tried to help me a little bit. The studio apartment was clean and nice. They had a couple of different sizes and layouts. The food and service were good. In the game room, they had a long board on a table with horses on it simulating horse racing, and they were all laughing and had a lot of fun with it. They also had several puzzles set up on different tables. They had a library, room with some exercise equipment in it, a special dining room area to the side if you wanted to have a guest or a birthday party, and a laundry room with ironing boards.

I toured Chateau de Boise and I liked it. I liked the apartments, but they had no openings at that time. They had a lot of activities. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Chateau de Boise was very good. The dining area was really clean and easy to get to. The rooms were really nice, good, and clean. They're doing maintenance and taking carpet out of some other rooms, which is good because that means they're keeping them up. Everybody was really nice, and the cleaning ladies know everybody by name and not by room number, which was good. The only thing was that when you first walk in the lobby, it had a funky smell which kind of put me off, but I liked everything else. The grounds were well-maintained, they'll take you to the bank, and there's a bus that'll take you to trips every morning. There were a lot of people sitting and being social in the open areas. There were quite a few women in alcoves playing cards and different places where different people were doing different things.

My friend is in Chateau de Boise. I like the living accommodations and the fact that she will have meals, so I do not have to worry about her not eating. I checked many of them before I put her in there, and I liked that one the best. The food is great. She does not have any complaints. She really likes it there.

I am living in Chateau de Boise, and I love it. I’m one happy camper. It’s a beautiful place, the food is outstanding, and everybody is friendly. The surroundings are very pleasant, and there are a lot of big trees. I have a one-bedroom apartment and a patio with a view of a nice lawn and big trees. All in all, I'm happy where I am.

The apartments at Chateau de Boise were large, and the layout was really nice. They had several 1-bedrooms that had a living room area. Even the studios were nice, big and open. The staff seemed friendly, but they didn't have a lot of staff because they're independent living. They had a craft activity going and quite a few different activities available. There was a movie room, a little exercise room, a laundry room, a dining room, and a hair salon.

My mom moved into Chateau de Boise. I think it's a really good community, the people are extremely friendly, they're very helpful, and I think their sales staff is very good. They explained all of the costs, the fees, and I think that aspect went pretty well. My mom thinks the food is pretty good. When we moved in everything was painted and re-carpeted, and it was very nice. I had to do some extra cleaning on the heater and air-conditioning unit, but that was OK. Other than that, we are still waiting on one lightbulb. I think the residents are really caring, they watch out for each other, and I think it's a really good, family environment.

I liked everything I saw in Chateau de Boise, everybody seemed happy. The apartments looked fine, and the dining room looked clean. Everybody was getting ready for activities, and they were taking the residents on a bus trip to Jackpot. The staff that I met seemed friendly, and everything looked clean and nice.

Rachel

We went to Chateau de Boise, and I think it was very cordial and friendly. It was a little bit dated. They did not have a full kitchen, and my father is looking for a full kitchen. The staff was fine.

Melody

Chateau de Boise is not a place where I would want to live. It was kind of old and I wasn't comfortable there. The staff was friendly enough, but the interview wasn't all that great. He seemed to be encouraging me more to eat there and the only people that were in the dining area had walkers and wheelchairs. The food wasn't that good. The place seemed to be dark, dingy, and it had an old feeling. It was like being in a nursing home. The staff member was cordial, but the interview was very short. I had to wait 15 minutes for him to become available and yet I had an appointment with him. I just was not impressed.
