"Affordable and Friendly Assisted Living; Older Building Could Deter Some"

They're really nice and helpful. My sister likes it there. We chose it because it's cheaper than other places we looked at. The building is old and might not appeal to everyone.

"Facility Withholds Refund After Resident's Passing"

My mom passed away. Her fee for the month of June was taken. Despite many tries, I haven't gotten a refund for the month my mom was charged for but couldn't use because she passed away. I emptied out her room on the day she passed. I needed the money to pay for funeral costs, but I didn't receive any of it back.

"Unwelcoming vibe and disorder at Marietta Life Center."

You should definitely steer clear of Marietta Life Center. The individual we had planned to meet wasn't even there, and the person who was there didn't recognize us. Worse, there was a large, unleashed dog just running around the place. The whole place felt dark and unhappy. We had such a terrible gut feeling that we left immediately.

"Costly for Its Offerings"

Marietta Life Center costs a lot for what you get. They should try to make it less pricey.

"Ill-Equipped and Understaffed: Not Safe For Elderly Residents"

I'm totally puzzled by the reviews of this place - must be workers who have posted them. The joint is old and in need of upgrades, not to mention the staff, who don't seem to have the training or basic social skills. My mother-in-law and I visited this place earlier in 2018. They've got workmen there trying to fix things up. The whole staff are from overseas. There's not a single qualified nurse around, unless your doctor arranges for home healthcare to stop by. They don't even have a shuttle bus to go places. The new owner is really trying to make it look nice, but the guy doesn't have any background in healthcare. I really can't suggest this as a proper place for anyone's elderly family.

"“The Unvarnished Truth of This Care Home""

The REAL DEAL with this assisted living home is that the staff are disrespectful. They only have a nurse for a short time one day a week. The therapy services they claim to offer are not truthful. These services actually come from an external source that a true medical professional needs to approve. There are no in-house care services. This has to be assigned by a doctor and also comes from an external company referred by the doctor. The monthly cost starts at which you have to pay in cash. They don't accept Medicare or insurance - it's all private payment. The staff don't know how to appropriately interact with residents. I've even seen a staff member lift a woman's shirt in front of men without giving it a second thought. The activities provided are boring. They DO NOT PROVIDE any transportation, so you have to take your loved one to the doctor or pay for a ride. You should definitely visit in person to check it all out!!!

"Marietta Living and Ana: Exceptional Care for Residents!"

I’ve never written a review before, but Marietta Living Center really deserves one. About six months ago, my mother-in-law needed assisted living. I looked at several places near Marietta and chose one, but it didn’t work out after a few weeks. Then, I spoke to the owner at Marietta Living, thanks to a recommendation from a saleswoman while I was buying a powerlift chair. The owner invited me to tour the facility that same day, and I was impressed by her genuine care for the residents. The place felt warm and welcoming, much more like home than the other facility. I asked some residents about their experience, and they all said they loved living there, which was a great sign. The owner and the staff have taken amazing care of my mother-in-law, and I can’t recommend them enough. She treats every resident like family, which is hard to find these days. I give Marietta Living a perfect score of 10 for their wonderful work!

"Feels Like Home, Great for Family Members!"

This place feels like home, even though it’s now an assisted living center. They have activities, but my mother-in-law can’t join in due to her health. The food looks good, and she seems fine with it. I would definitely recommend this community to family and friends.

"Dad Is Thriving"

My dad is doing well so far. The care is excellent, and the staff are responsible, attentive, and communicate effectively. The community keeps things clean, and my dad enjoys fresh meals with plenty of options. I recommend this community for a positive experience.

"Communication Needs Work at Marietta Living Centre"

Marietta Living Centre could improve communication, but overall, I'm about 3 out of 5 satisfied with the facility.

"A Safe and Loving Home: Marietta Living Center Review"

My family really likes what Marietta Living Center does for my mom. She likes the nice people and good food. Her room is comfy in this pretty old house near the square. But what's best is how they help her and the manager, makes her feel special. Most importantly, they keep her safe and she's getting healthier. We're lucky she's here.

"Wonderful Place for Mom's Care and Happiness"

We were looking for a safe and happy place for my mom, and a friend told us about Marietta Living Center. We got to tour the facility and speak with the caregivers, who seemed very caring and knowledgeable. We also talked to two residents, and they were really happy there. When we asked them if the staff was kind and quick to help, they both said yes. The center is beautiful and close to us, which is a big plus!

"We were very pleased with the care and cleanliness"

My uncle lived there for a year, and we visited often. The place was always clean, and the staff was very attentive to his needs. They were friendly and helpful. Most importantly, my uncle was happy there.

"Perfect Place for My Mom!"

My mom has been at Marietta Living Center and it's truly a great place. The management team is amazing, and their care shines through everywhere. With its cozy kitchen on the main floor, shaded front porch, and a super comfortable TV room, this place really feels like home to her. At first, Mom wasn’t happy about moving, but the Marietta Living Center helped ease her worries, and now, as she says, she's 'a very happy camper!' I looked at about 25 places before finding Marietta Living Center, and I knew right away it was the perfect spot for her.

"Untrustworthy staff and substandard living conditions at this care facility."

This place feels sketchy. I'm not sure where to even start. Ants crawl on the counters where the residents' food is served. The residents seem miserable, just wandering around looking unhappy. When I went to see my relative, an aide named [name] was totally engrossed in her phone, ignoring a man who looked like he was choking. The management is not to be trusted. They're sneaky and seem to care more about money than people. It's obvious they're trying to hide a bunch of things. Don't be tricked by their phony smiles. They're just bad people. It's really sad to see the residents living like this.

"Sham Assisted Living: Ants, Unhappiness & Greedy Management"

This place smells fishy and it's not just the kitchen. They have ants running around where they serve food to the residents, talk about unsanitary! Folks living here always look really unhappy as they trudge about the place. I went to visit my family member, and saw a caretaker named [name removed] on the job. She was far too busy with her phone to notice an old man struggling nearby [details removed]. Now don't get me started on the management, they're not even funny. They cook up plans just to make a quick buck. The lengths they go to hide their mess, you’d be surprised! Don't fall for their deceptive grins, these folks are wicked. Their sneaky ways are just pathetic. I pity the folks living here.

"Balanced Care with Room for Improvement"

They do an excellent job of managing my mom's diet for health reasons. That's the best part. However, I believe they could offer more hands-on activities for the residents.

"Balancing Diet and Activities in Assisted Living"

They do an excellent job of managing my mother's diet for health reasons. That's the best part. However, I believe they could offer more hands-on activities for the residents.

"Caring Staff Treat Residents Like Family"

Our father lived at Marietta Living Centre (MLC) for about five years. We’re from Denver, CO, and due to health issues, we couldn’t visit him in Marietta, GA. So, we talked to Pat on the phone once or twice every day. These calls were very important to us. Sometimes he couldn’t answer the phone himself, so we would call the staff, and they always helped him. No matter what they were doing, they treated us kindly and never made us feel like we were bothering them. He often told us how well he was treated and said he felt loved by the staff because they spoke to him so gently. He really came to love the staff like family. Throughout his time at MLC, he never complained about anything—he even loved the food! We want to thank the General Manager, for taking such good care of our father with respect and kindness. Her caring attitude clearly inspires the rest of the staff. We’re also thankful for the Medical Technicians. They treated our father with dignity and kept a close eye on his health to ensure he got the care he needed.

"Nice place for loved ones!"

Marietta Living Center was the best thing that happened to my mom and us. Their care, service, cleanliness, attitude, homemade meals, staff, and management made it feel just like home. It's a beautiful, cozy, and friendly place. We wish all of you the best and thank you.

"Home sweet home!"

Feeling right at home. We toured the facility last week while searching for a place for my mom. Everyone was nice and friendly, showing genuine care for the residents. All the staff knew everyone and their specific situations. Thank you for the tour, and we’ll be back to check her in next month once I take care of some family issues first. Thanks.

"Wonderful Care and Staff"

My loved one was in this facility and I can't express my gratitude enough to the staff. I had to go there every day for a month before my mother passed away. The aroma of freshly cooked food was welcoming. Everything was clean, the staff friendly, and they were always ready to answer questions. Mother was truly loved and taken care of. Thank you for the amazing work you did for us. May God bless you abundantly!

"Wonderful, caring staff—perfect home for Mom"

My mom lived at Marietta Living Center for the past two years. She recently passed, and I can’t say enough good things about the staff. They got to know her and took time to talk with her. They treated us like family, which isn’t something you find everywhere. They were always attentive, and if she had a rough day, they were patient and supportive. The food was delicious, and the place was always clean. Everyone was professional and kind. We couldn’t have chosen a better place for her. Thank you for all the kindness you showed us.

"A Homey Place with Happy Residents"

I visited Marietta Living Center to find out more for my aunt. The first thing I noticed was how beautiful it was. It felt like a family home, not just a center. Everything was clean, and it didn’t have that bad hospital smell. The staff was really nice and answered all my questions. The residents looked very happy, and I was glad to see they have a lot of activities for everyone. My aunt decided to move to Florida to live with her daughter. If she had stayed in Marietta, I think she would have been really happy at Marietta Living Center.

"A Cozy, Friendly Home for Loved Ones"

I visited Marietta Living Center for my loved ones, and the place is BEAUTIFUL and CLEAN. It feels like a cozy home, and the director and staff are super friendly. They provide excellent service and meet all needs—three homemade meals by an experienced chef, medication management, and they helped me stay within my budget. I strongly recommend Marietta Living Center. They also have fun activities and offer personal one-on-one care, treating my loved ones like family, not just like a business.

"Wonderful Home for Loved Ones! "

This place is amazing! My family member felt right at home. Everything is always clean and the staff and management are super responsive. Thanks for taking such great care of them!

"Strong Odors and Stains, Wouldn't Consider For Loved One"

When we checked out this place for my family member's potential care, I was totally unimpressed. The facility wasn't kept up well at all, with a noticeable smell and stains on both the walls and the furniture. I wouldn't even think about having my loved one stay here.

4.5/5.00 Published 10 years ago

"Comfortable, Happy Environment with Caring Staff"

I've been visiting this place once or twice a week, and I have to say it feels really nice like you’re at home. The landscaping is pretty, the rooms are good, and the residents seem happy. The food is decent, and the staff is attentive. They’ll give your loved one the care they deserve.

"Avoid This Shabby And Gloomy Assisted Living Facility"

Quite gloomy, reeked like it hadn't been tidied ever, and the folks living there just looked gloomily the same – continuously zoned out on their TVs. I wouldn't wish for my biggest enemy to live here! Moreover, this place is totally worn out, nothing similar to the photos on the internet!

"Steer Clear of Marietta Living Center"

The Marietta Living Center is definitely not a spot I'd suggest. A family member of mine stayed there a long time and I noticed a constant turnover of staff. I'm only able to use 200 characters for this review, but trust me, my string of concerns is way longer. If you choose this facility for your loved one, I suggest frequent, unexpected visits. Really see the kind of "care" that's being given, not just to your family member but to everyone there. In their entire stay, I never once saw a proper Marietta Living Center nurse overseeing the med techs. Caregivers seriously need more resident handling skills, especially when it comes to dealing with dementia behaviors. All the negative reviews you see on this site? I fully back them as they're spot on. I honestly feel like this place needs further investigation and monitoring.

"Dismal Conditions and Neglect at Assisted Living Home"

The quaint, old-fashioned house is simply a façade as underneath it, the facility is in a state of disrepair. I have been visiting my family member pretty often and it's clear that the place is understaffed. Numerous times, I found myself wandering around trying to find even a single staff member. I discovered medication left on my mom's bedside table. Laundry is often neglected and clothing regularly goes missing. Any special requests go unnoticed, like my mom not drinking coffee. Simple things like changing her soiled underwear aren't done and many residents reek and wear the same clothes for days. Activities are non-existent. Everyone just sits around mindlessly watching television. I recall a resident next door to my mom crying out for a painkiller for an entire hour. I eventually managed to move my mom out but got burdened with several fees and penalties.

"A Warm Welcome and a Sparkling Clean Home"

When I first stepped into Marietta Living Centre, I was impressed by how clean it was. I was greeted by several friendly faces, and it was hard to tell who worked there because everyone was chatting and helping each other. It just felt really nice!

"Could Use More Engaging and Stimulating Activities"

We really liked the director at Marietta Living Centre. They keep the place super clean and create a cozy home-like atmosphere. The only thing is, they could be more involved with the residents and offer more fun activities. The food is okay, and the landscaping looks great. The community has a nice curb appeal, and the rooms are comfy. The staff is super attentive and handles maintenance issues well. Overall, it's a great community. I'd recommend it to anyone who can visit often and provide mental stimulation for their loved ones.

"Great place, but pricey fees may strain our budget"

This is a nice place with a good location, but the typical fee-for-service pricing makes it a bit risky for our budget.

"Friendly Staff and Home-like Atmosphere"

Really liked this facility. The staff was friendly, and the residents were well cared for. Also liked the "home-like" atmosphere. No deposit required. They do respite care, but it's based on room availability.

"Feels Like The End, Yet Has Potential For Comfort"

It feels a bit too much like the end, but it has potential to be pleasant...
