Customer Reviews
I've been living here for about three years, and I love it! The owner/management are very responsive to tenant's needs. While other local senior living complexes may offer more "perks" (i.e. swimming pool, exercise classes), you are also paying a premium monthly cost for all those "perks" that you may not typically use. IMHO, the rent here is much more reasonable, particularly since I would not use most "perks" offered at the other area independent living senior apartments. The apartments have in-unit full size washer/drier and stone counter tops. There is an elevator.
Reading of the main entrance door being left open did concern me since I had already signed my lease. However, over the past two weeks I've been moving light items here from my old apartment. I'm in and out at least twice a day, sometimes three times. The ONLY times the front door has been propped open is when the owner was sitting in his office just inside the entrance, with his door open so he could view who was entering ... OR ... if he was out front, again where he was in view of the entrance. I don't know how many coats of paint are on my walls, but I will say the paint job was good, I can't see any flaws. I urge any senior possibly interested in relocating to a new build to come view the apartments for yourself and make your own decisions.
I have visited residents there and think it's not really ready for rental. The side walks on several occasions were icy. The exterior door propped open each time I've visited. A security issue. The hallways and inside the apartments have one coat of paint that is inadequate. The hallways are cold, not heated. The fan in the apartment is so loud it is difficult to speak, the handicap parking is across the parking lot instead of using parking spaces closest to the entrance. All of this might change but it is really disheartening to visit there, especially because it is new. I would get it if it were student housing but not senior housing.
We are in the process of moving into Westmere Village. Everyone on the staff has been extremely helpful in assuring that our new apartment is “perfect.” The residents we’ve met have been very friendly and we can’t wait to know them better. A big shout out to Genene who has helped us with everything. Also, Joe, the owner is working hard to make sure everything is just right. Couldn’t be happier.
A lovely place to live. ❤️
