The only complaint was when she had food delivered to her room, it was often cold, but that was the absolute only complaint.

Review for Bickford of Marshalltown

Bickford is decent but has a difficult time with keeping cooks. The rest of the staff is very good, rooms are decent, and they have considerable activities for the residents. Like most all senior facilities the cost is enormous and will in the end take everything they ever worked for or saved.
