The rooms is nothing like that picture. They need renovated. The nurses won't answer the phone I been up there visiting and the phone be ringing and they just keep talking. My sister had covid I went up there they didn't bother to tell me,no quarantine paper on her door and my daughter n law that's pregnant and I caught covid I have called the Administration 3 days in a row and he won't return my calls. I been up there and my sister was in unit 1 and put on her call light took them 45 min I would peek out they just standing around. This place is the pits.

Windsor House is a good fit for my mother-in-law. It's kind of a smaller home with fifty residents and thirty-eight rooms. We like the fact that they have a mixture of residents there. She can be as independent as she needs to be but also get the care that she needs. They have a doctor on call and nurses come in. They're very attentive to the residents' individual needs in terms of food and lifestyle, so to speak. She's in a single room; she has a bathroom and a living space. They allowed us to bring furniture from her home, and they provide the cable setup in her room. She doesn't have a need for a telephone but they would provide one, and I think there's an extra charge for that. She liked the fact that for the price it was all inclusive; there are not a lot of add-ons because she's on a very limited budget. They play bingo, and they have activities every single day that they can participate in as they wish. Every day they can look at the board with a list of activities available that week, and the residents are allowed to participate if they're interested. They have a library, which is good since she likes to read; they have a living room with a fireplace where they can sit and read; and they have community dining -- it's a nice setting. The activities are a little limited right now due to the COVID shutdown. The staff I've interacted with are very nice, and the layout of the place is very nice.

My father is at The Legacy at Southpointe Drive. It's been good. It's a nice place for him. The staff is great. There has been a lot of confusion financially, but mostly everything has been resolved. They feed him three meals a day, and he has his own refrigerator and groceries. He is able to snack when he wants, so it's pretty convenient. They have a fitness center, but because of COVID, they really haven't been able to get him up there yet. I would like to look into some kind of therapy or somebody who can help him with his exercises because he's not doing them. When you walk into his apartment, there is a full-sized bathroom to the left. It has a walk-in shower, which is important, because he doesn't have a lot of strength in his legs. To the right, there's a mini-kitchen, a sink, a microwave, and a full refrigerator. He has a bed on one side, his chair on the other, and a TV hookup. It's a nice place, but it's kind of expensive.

We saw Windsor House just on the outside. The grounds were clean. We saw two rooms from an outside entrance. The rooms were nice and big with their own bathroom, but I think you had to bring your own furniture. One room had furnishings, the other one was empty. With the price, they should provide furnishings because it's a lot of money. I only met one person, and he was very nice. My one big concern is that these things are expensive. They're right against the road, which I don't know if that's too ideal because if somebody tried to walk out or something, they could be in big trouble. There were no gates. I think they probably should have a gate. They're right on Pelham Road, and Pelham Road is a very busy road. They had meals and activities planned, but you had to bring somebody in for care. They should have a gate going to the road, so that people couldn't walk off. The building itself was good. It's nice and clean, and there's a park that you can walk on and a lot of outdoor seating. It felt comfortable there. The only one issue I had was there should've been a gate because it's a very busy road and somebody could just walk out because the rooms had outside entrances. If you're a little confused, you can just walk off and walk out into the street.
