"Friendly Staff and Clean Community, But Dining Service Can Be Slow"

Most of the staff members are really friendly, and the place is clean. We've seen the staff be very helpful to residents who can't help themselves, especially in the dining room. The meals seem pretty good, but sometimes the dining service is slow and not so great.

"Assisted Living Facility Delivered on Promises, Highly Recommend"

I think others should consider this community based on my experience because they did what they said they would.

"Sales info differs from reality, but still recommend for care."

The things they say when you sign up might not match up with what you actually see. Make sure you keep checking so your family members are getting the care they need. I'd say it's alright for others to check out.

"Safe and Cheerful Assisted Living: Highly Recommended"

We picked Sunrise because it’s close by. The place seemed clean and happy, and people said good things about it. The rooms are a decent size, not too small compared to others we saw. What really mattered was how they handled things during the pandemic. They kept everyone safe and secure, and they did a really good job. I’d definitely suggest it to others.

"Great staff ratio and suitable for self-sufficient residents"

We picked Sunrise of Decatur because it has more staff per resident due to its smaller size. I had good experiences with the staff both in person and by email. The size and layout of the facility are perfect for his needs. The rooms are just the right size for him. He mentioned the food can be unpredictable. Since my dad can take care of himself, waiting for any extra help isn’t a big issue. I would suggest it to others who are looking.

"Personalized and Friendly Assisted Living Choice"

We checked out many other places, but we picked Sunrise because they seemed really capable, caring, and friendly. The building itself is nice too. The rooms are a good size, no issues there. They offer a menu with different choices, though I think there's too much starchy food. My favorite thing about this place is its size. I visited some bigger ones, but this feels smaller and more personal—you get to know everyone. Overall, I would recommend it.

"Cozy Assisted Living with Attentive Staff"

The staff is friendly and attentive, and the facility is clean and cozy. It might not be as fancy as newer places, but it feels like home.

"My Visit to the Community"

This place feels like a beautiful old Victorian home. The person who showed us around was friendly. It was peaceful during our visit. However, my loved one wanted a more lively community.

"A Tour with Pros and Cons"

The folks I encountered at this place were friendly, and the surroundings appeared tidy. They seem to have some pleasant perks. However, I wasn't a fan of its proximity to a busy road.

"Friendly, Clean, and Worth Touring"

We toured this place for my mom's care. The staff were nice and friendly. We were happy because the community was very clean. They have a variety of good activities. We would recommend this community, but families might want to visit first because of the cost.

"Not a perfect match!"

This place is really nice, and I enjoy being around the people here. The staff is super helpful and friendly. The residents seem really happy. However, it’s just too far away, and they don’t provide all the services my mom needs.

"My Visit"

The staff was ready and on time for our tour. I got the useful information I needed. The apartment was not the right size for us, so we needed something larger. That's why we didn't choose it.

"Perfect care for Mom!"

I couldn't ask for a better group to care for my mom. This place is amazing in everything they do. Mom is still getting used to the community, but everyone is helping her adjust. The community and her room are always clean.

"A Lovely Community Tour"

I had a great tour of this community. The guide was friendly and helpful, and they answered all my questions. The place looked nice and well-maintained, and the staff was courteous. It was a lovely tour.

"Fantastic place with friendly staff and great activities!"

The staff here is super friendly and always willing to help. The food is really good, too! The building looks great, is nicely decorated, and feels welcoming. The grounds are beautiful, making it a nice place to spend time. Everyone on the staff offers so much positive support. There are lots of different and fun activities to enjoy. Overall, it’s an excellent place!

"Tour Impressed, Food Untested, Worth a Visit Before Deciding"

We really liked what we saw when we visited this community. The person who gave us the tour knew a lot, and the people we met were friendly. Unfortunately, we didn't get to try the food or see any activities. I suggest taking a tour and talking to people before choosing a community.

"Attractive Facility, But Lacks Supervision"

After taking a look around this assisted living facility, my feelings were split down the middle. The memory care part of the place left me feeling let down. It seemed like the residents were left to wander about without any proper supervision. The place felt a little too packed with people for my liking. And from what I could see, there simply weren't enough staff around to take care of all the residents. On a brighter note, the community looks nice, and the workers seemed kind and approachable. However, it simply didn't feel like the right place for my mom.

"Very nice place"

" "TERRIBLE! INDIFFERENT, PROFIT-DRIVEN SUNDECATUR""

TERRIBLE! The management at this facility is in need of change. They only care about money. They discourage care staff from performing tasks unless they can charge you for it. The maintenance is subpar and they fail to communicate at all. The marketing department will show you the limited positives but won't tell you about the less-than-adequate care services. You almost need to visit daily to ensure that your loved one is surviving with minimal care. My experience has been mostly negative. Don't waste your money with SunDecatur. The upper management is only concerned about revenue. TERRIBLE!

"Great Tour, Fine Facility"

We visited this place while exploring options. The tour felt great, and the facility was fine.

"Helpful Despite Challenges"

Certainly! Here’s the revised review in 8th-grade level American English: They were really helpful, but unfortunately, I moved my parents during a tough time (right before Thanksgiving when they were short-staffed). As a result, we had to wait quite a while just to place our dinner order, for instance.

"Caring, attentive staff in a lovely environment"

We’re really happy with our experience at Sunrise of Decatur! I love that the staff truly cares about each resident as a person. They don’t just use a one-size-fits-all approach; they really focus on what works best for each individual. The place is beautiful and always clean, and everyone on the staff is super friendly!

"Positive Experience at Maplewood Assisted Living, Kudos to Staff"

I really liked the place, especially the common rooms and what they offered. The one-bedroom with a den was kinda cramped for two people. But Garnet and Shannon, who assisted us, were fantastic!

"Great activities, but only private pay options available"

I really liked this place and wanted to move my loved one here. It’s a nice place with lots of activities, way more than at a personal care home. The only problem is they don’t have many funding options; it’s all private pay.

"Mixed feelings about in-house health service at assisted living facility"

I liked the place, but the health service there wasn't good. We couldn't choose which service to use, and their nurse couldn't help with a wound, so my relative had to leave. The staff were kind and thoughtful, which we appreciated. Also, the food was delicious, and they had activities for residents.

"Excellent Care and Friendly Staff at Sunrise of Decatur"

We really like Sunrise of Decatur. The workers are nice and seem to care about everyone. The place is nice and clean. We don't smell anything bad, and the folks in the Reminiscence unit look well taken care of. The boss is always ready to help, and his new helper is super friendly.

"Pretty Good but Just Wasn't Right For Us"

The place was pretty good but didn't really suit our needs. Once I saw the cost, it just confirmed my thoughts.

"Perfect move for Dad he's thriving at Sunrise of Decatur"

We chose Sunrise of Decatur because Dad was at a Sunrise independent living place in Boca Raton before. They made the move easy, and we all feel welcomed here. It was the right choice for Dad; he’s doing better here than he was at Stratford Court.

"Good facilities with spacious rooms and activities available!"

I talked with the activities director and saw several rooms. The two-bedroom seemed nice and spacious. There are also big rooms upstairs for activities outside of the residents' rooms. I'm not sure about the pricing yet, so I will need to follow up about the costs and other details.

It's decent - fits the budget.

"Beautiful building, common areas very nice, but pricier."

The building is beautiful, and the common areas are very nice. The rooms seem a bit smaller than Brighton Gardens, and it’s a little pricier. Everyone felt like they were giving a sales pitch, but they were friendly. It’s about equally distant from me, but farther from my brothers than BG. They offer plenty of food choices, although toasters aren’t allowed.
