Bellarose was lovely. It's a new facility, but they didn't have a ground floor apartment available. The person I met with was very nice. It was a lovely facility. It was just the availability of first floor apartments is hard to come by and it was a little bit more expensive than what I'm paying now. Meals were included, and there were activities. There was a pool and a gym. The apartment size was average and there wasn't a lot of storage, but they had their own washer and dryer in each unit, which was nice. Everything was clean and new. The staff was very nice and very helpful. They weren't letting anyone in the dining room at all. I had a brief tour of the vacant apartment they had, but they were still on pretty strict lockdown. They had a pool.

We have chosen Legend at Mingo Road for my sister-in-law. I visit there a lot with friends. It has always been a warm, really pretty place. I feel my sister-in-law would be comfortable there. It's not a really big place. Nice residents. I heard the food is good. It looks like my sister-in-law is going to have a nice view. It's very small compared to what she's used to, but it's still a quiet place. I like that, too. The staff who helped me and talked to me was very nice and helpful. The building was lovely.

I went by Legend at Mingo Road when we were touring for my father-in-law's move, and the striking thing about there is walking in and going into one of the rooms to view the room it smelled heavily of urine. The facility looked great, but that aroma of urine is a quick turnoff. Because of that experience, I make sure that people know that's not a good place to go. They could've cleaned it up, and they may not always smell that way, but it sure smelled of pee when we went. The staff was friendly and positive. I even commented on it, "It smells like pee in here." They had a television room and it had books in it, but they didn't have a lot of communal gathering areas from what I saw. They did menu type style meals. The place was acceptable, but not the best.

Mom moved into here in January 2019. We're really happy with it and we like it. The room is nice, we're happy with it. We're also happy with the staff They do bingo, and things have been changed because of Covid. They used to do field trips and used to go to Walmart. I know they do have a man that comes out and plays the piano every couple of weeks. Mom enjoys that, but most of the activity she's not really able to participate in. The food is good. Some is better than others, but for the most part it's pretty good.
