"Dad Thrives in Clean, Friendly Community"

My dad loves it there. The staff is friendly, the place is clean, and the food is great.

"A Homelike Haven with Excellent Communication"

The Gardens at Escondido feels more like a cozy home for our loved one. The staff communicates really well with us. We've met and liked the staff on the memory care side, who consistently update us via calls or emails about our loved one. We're pleased with the care they provide and would recommend them to other families seeking a place for their loved ones.

"Uncomfortable with a Mismatched Assisted Living Facility"

We didn't think this place was a good match for our family member, and we weren't at ease about leaving them here.

"Mixed Feelings About Assisted Living"

I brought my loved one here, and just three days later, they locked down the entire facility due to COVID. A month passed, and they finally reopened, but now they're in another lockdown, and I can't visit. I'm really let down because it seemed like a great place, yet I haven't even been able to go inside.

"Cozy and Welcoming Assisted Living with Room for Improvement"

The staff here makes my mom feel really welcome and at home. She keeps saying how good this place is for her. It's surprising how affordable it is, and it's the nicest place we could find for the cost. I think they could add more activities that engage the mind instead of just social hours. More mental activities could help her improve faster. They recently switched to Gardens from Atria, but they didn't tell us about it very well. They should work on communication. The people who take care of her are very nice. The executive director seems cool and is adjusting to the changes. The facility is small, so it's great if your family member prefers a cozy place. There's not much outdoor space, but what they have is well cared for. It's very clean, and the maintenance person is really nice.

"Lack of Staff Impacts Care Quality, Exceptional Maintenance and Housekeeping"

We had many issues with the care due to not enough staff. The staff they had were wonderful. However, I felt my loved one didn't receive proper care. Maintenance and housekeeping staff were outstanding. All departments were short-staffed, an administrative problem.

"Creative Activities and Caring Staff Make Assisted Living Stand Out"

The staff at this assisted living place is really great, like a five-star rating. The food looks good and they give you big portions, which is nice. They try hard with the activities, like getting iPads so we can talk to our family when we couldn't visit. They set up outside areas once we could visit again. When they had to keep us inside, they got creative and played bingo on the iPads, which was fun.

"Mixed Experience in Assisted Living Facility"

The place was pretty clean overall. The staff was nice, but sometimes it was hard to find them. The care was decent. We felt the laundry services could be better. They always had stuff for residents to do. The price was okay for what you get.

"Friendly and Beautiful Assisted Living Facility"

This place is beautiful, and everyone is super friendly and kind to the residents. I might look for something closer to home for easier care.

"Cozy, Friendly Assisted Living with Helpful Staff and Welcoming Residents"

The building is small and charming. It’s easy to get around. The staff is really friendly and professional. It feels like a cozy little hotel. The residents are welcoming and nice.

"Friendly, Clean Facility; Extra Costs and Limited Amenities Concerning"

The staff here was really nice and it felt like a close-knit family. The building was full of natural light and the ceilings were tall, which made it feel very open. It was clean too. However, there wasn't a lot of space to go outside. It's a pretty small place with only about 80 people living there. There's no gym or pool, which was a bit of a letdown. I still need to figure out how much it costs for a one-bedroom place. I was upset to find that the rooms don't have kitchens, so Mom wouldn't be able to cook. Personal care costs extra and they'll bring food to the room, but that also costs extra. This place is certified for memory care if Mom needs it. My only real concern is that Mom might not fit in well with the older folks there.

"Mixed Feelings After Touring The Facility"

The guy who showed me around, was a good guy and he answered every question that I had. However, the place itself was pretty small. Also, the place it was located wasn't great. A lot of cars that weren't working properly were parked on the nearby road. The place didn't really give me a warm, welcoming feel. I don't think I'd feel comfortable having my mom stay here.

"Friendly Tour with Room Size Concerns"

The staff were really friendly during our tour. They took their time showing us around and patiently answered our questions. The community has a lot to offer residents, but unfortunately, the room sizes didn't meet our needs for our mother.

"Great tour, friendly staff, delicious food, but lacking kitchen for mom"

Atria North Escondido was a super cool place to check out! The people working there were really nice and they answered all the questions we had. It's super quiet there, which is nice. We got to eat there too, and the chef was really proud of the food they made. They even gave us some homemade muffins to take home! It's in a really good spot, close to the YMCA. But we ended up picking another place because my mom really wanted a kitchen.

"Nice place, but room layout wasn't right for us."

Atria was very nice. The food looked good too! We chose other options because the room layout wasn't what we wanted.

4/5.00 Published 7 years ago

"Beautiful Place!"

I thought this place was really nice and the staff took good care of it. They had a great layout for everyone living here, and they were very professional during our tour. I appreciated how clean everything was and that they had lots of activities for the residents. Unfortunately, it didn't quite match what my mom needed.

"She's adjusting wonderfully and making friends"

At first, my mom wasn't too happy about moving into the memory care unit. But now, she's settled in and making friends. She goes on outings and walks. They've moved her to the first floor with residents who are more active. I'm glad to know she's well taken care of and safe. She really enjoys the food there.

4.5/5.00 Published 7 years ago

"Feels like home!"

I've been really happy with the care my loved one is getting from the staff. She's doing alright so far, still adjusting to all the changes. I feel much better now knowing she's safe. She chose this place because it's smaller and feels more like home.

"Mom’s Happy Home with Caring Staff"

My family and I really like Atria Escondido for our mom. She stays in the part of the place where they help people with their memories. Everyone working there is super nice and kind, and they make sure my mom is well taken care of. At first, we were worried she might not get used to living somewhere new, but in just a week, she was doing just fine, all thanks to the people there. Now, she’s really happy and the care she gets is awesome. She has a lot of fun with the activities and trips they go on. The workers watch what she does every day very closely and make sure everything about her care is just right for her. We’re all super pleased with how things are going.

"Welcoming Assisted Living: A Clean, Pet-Friendly Community"

During our visit, the people who worked there were friendly and knew a lot. The place looked clean and spacious. Also, they let you have pets, and they can take you places if you need it.

"Excellent care and support for loved ones"

I really like the care my mom gets here. She enjoys the staff and is happy with the attention they give her. The food looks great, and they keep her busy with activities with the other residents. We would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for great care for a loved one.

5/5.00 Published 7 years ago

"Overall, we are happy with Atria’s activities and meals!"

Atria is just as great as advertised. We’ve encouraged my mother-in-law to join activities and be more social. The meals are okay—better quality would be nice, but they are sufficient. They had a lot of fun entertainment for Valentine's Day this month. Overall, we're happy with how things are going.

4.5/5.00 Published 7 years ago

"Great place so far, my mom is happy!"

I live in a different city from my mom, but from what I've seen, Atria North Escondido has been a great choice. My mom likes it, and she says the meals are really good. The place is also very clean compared to other places I visited. Overall, we are very happy.

5/5.00 Published 8 years ago

"A great choice for us!"

The staff are amazing and they encourage my loved one to join in the daily activities. She is in memory care now, and we couldn't be happier with this decision. The community is clean and well-kept. She enjoys the exercise class, and I would recommend this place.

4.5/5.00 Published 8 years ago

"Great food, fun activities, and amazing, caring staff!"

The meals are usually fine, but the chef is great, and the desserts are fantastic. I enjoy many of the daily activities they offer. They celebrate birthdays and other events in the community. I don't think you could find a more caring or genuine staff.

"Nice Facility with Caring Staff"

My husband is still getting used to the place, but overall, it's nice, and I'm happy. I do have a couple of problems with the workers because they talked to his doctor without telling me. I didn't like that. But the place itself is clean and good. I feel better knowing he's safe and looked after well. The food is good, and he likes it. It's a pleasant place with friendly folks.

"Great Assisted Living Experience at Atria North Escondido"

This place was really nice and clean. The people living there were friendly and seemed happy and relaxed. They seemed to like where they were living. he, one of the staff, was super helpful and answered all of our questions. I think my Mom would be happy here and get the help she needs to be independent again. We put down a deposit to reserve a studio.

"Atria North Escondido Meets Our High Standards"

We have high standards, and Atria North Escondido meets them. Everyone is super nice and helpful to seniors. They make it feel like home. They have movie nights and sometimes people come in to sing. The food is excellent.

3/5.00 Published 8 years ago

"Not a great experience, can't recommend"

My thoughts on Atria North Escondido aren't really good. An Atria worker evaluated my husband and said he couldn't join Atria until he was in better shape. At this point, my husband couldn't walk and couldn't follow the physical therapist's directions for therapy.

"Great staff, but few activities in mental care unit"

Things are going very well with my Aunt at Atria North Escondido. The staff is excellent, and she has no complaints about the food. However, in the mental care unit, there aren't many activities.

5/5.00 Published 8 years ago

"Great support, but services need improvement"

I appreciate how they help residents adjust and deal with any issues they might have. However, I think they could improve their services.

"Subpar Food and Slow Service at Atria North Escondido"

Atria North Escondido is a decent place. My mom really appreciates how well they clean her space. However, she isn't thrilled with the meals they serve, especially when the soup is ice cold. Service can take ages sometimes, and we're guessing this might be because they don't have enough people on the job. The staff, though, are really friendly and they are always trying to make us happy. They have lots of activities, but my mom doesn't really join in. Overall, I guess it's an OK place for her.

"Great move to Atria: Better life and more fun!"

I am very happy with Atria for moving my father. The tour was more thorough than other places I checked. His life has improved, and he's enjoying himself!

"Great care from Atria North Escondido, very pleased family"

We live in Louisiana, so it's great to know that Atria North Escondido is taking really good care of my parents. Since we’re far away and can’t be there, we’re very pleased with their care.

"Caring Staff, Sneaky Add-ons"

They really look after my father-in-law. He's had a couple of falls, but they promptly get him to the hospital and keep us informed about his meds. Only thing: wish we knew about those add-ons before signing.

"Friendly Staff and Clean Spaces at Atria North"

My mom's only been at Atria North for a month, but we're really happy so far. The one-bedroom place is huge and super clean when she moved in. Everyone who works there is friendly and eager to help. I noticed the dining room servers knew everyone's name and tried to make things easy for the residents. The housekeeping staff does an awesome job too.

"Mom feels really comfortable and settled in"

"Tight Parking and Smoke Sours Otherwise Decent Facility"

The living spaces and amenities were decently spacious and clean at the facility. However, it's a smaller community with not many activities or extras. Parking spaces for the residents are really cramped and scarce. Plus, the spot to smoke is situated directly by the main doors – seriously off-putting.

"Very Happy and Satisfied"

The only problem was that my husband needed a shave and hadn't been shaved in a week, even though they usually do it. The staff is awesome and the place is really clean. We are very happy with them. I would highly recommend them.

"Very nice place with friendly and thoughtful staff!"

They were really nice when they called and set up a tour for us right away. Everyone has been so friendly, outgoing, and thoughtful. The place is very nice, and the staff is excellent. It's been a great experience, and I would definitely recommend Atria North Escondido.

"They are doing an awesome job!"

They are doing an awesome job! The place is clean, and the staff is super friendly. She really enjoys the food. So far, we don't have any complaints. I'd give them a high rating.

"Extremely pleased with Atria North Escondido"

I was really impressed with Atria North Escondido when I first toured it, but I wanted to wait until my Mom had been there for a while before writing a review. I’m still very impressed with the care and the facilities. The staff is caring and clearly happy in their work, which is hard to fake over time. The only smell I remember from the tour was the pot roast from lunch, and it smelled amazing. The rooms are big and cozy, and I liked that we could furnish the room with Mom’s things. It didn’t feel like a "rest home," but rather a real home. I’m still very pleased with Atria. I was especially impressed with the management staff and how they teach, not punish, their staff. I think Atria North Escondido understands that if your staff is happy, your clients and residents will be too. I really hope that if my family is ever in the same situation, they find a place like Atria North Escondido for me.

"Super Friendly and Helpful Staff"

They were super friendly from the beginning and very helpful. I live far away from my dad, and I like that they always keep in touch with me. The place is very clean and really nice. Most importantly, my dad is very happy there. It's been a great experience, and I would highly recommend Atria North Escondido.

"Decent Place but Could Improve"

This place isn't the best, but it isn't the worst either. The food is a big issue. They have a daily menu, but a lot of it my mom can't eat because of what's in it. She mostly has to eat BLT's. We see a lot of people taking a few bites and then pushing the food away, so it’s not just us. They try to accommodate, but there aren't many options. The people are nice, and the room is nice. They are a bit understaffed, and the staff is often running around. The three most important things are the staff, the cleanliness of the rooms, and the food.

"Lovely Rooms, Affordable Choice"

The cost here was higher than the other place we considered. But I really preferred the rooms at this facility—they looked great. In the end, though, we had to choose the more affordable option.

"Nice Gaby Doesn't Match Silverado's Care Level"

This is really nice but her care wasn't as good as what Silverado provides. If we had chosen Escondido, we would have picked Silverado.

"Escondido Senior Living: Facilities, Activities, and Comfort near Freeway"

This place is located near a freeway in Escondido. It appears to be specifically built for seniors. There's a nice garden and patios outside for hanging out. They organize exercise classes and walks on a daily basis. There's a TV room where fresh popcorn is served. The dining room is well-kept and clean. They also have a hair salon for residents. The studio is equipped with a microwave and a fridge. The bathrooms in the studio have grab bars for safety. The one-bedroom unit has a spacious bathroom.

"Clean Facility, Confused Manager and Few Activities"

The place was neat and tidy. However, the manager seemed confused and there weren't many folks moving around. There weren't too many activities or trips.
