Our experience

Meridian is a great value – the rooms are the largest of any we looked at, the folks are extremely friendly, my mother-in-law loves the food and it's been an overall terrific experience for her. And The cost is excellent. I definitely recommend the Meridian for others. It's also near Trader Joe's for shopping and every bank imaginable.

I’m sorry but I did not have a great experience. I was looking into places for my mom for the future so that when the time comes we are not rushing to find something, and I thought starting early was a responsible idea. Unfortunately, the tour itself did not go well. The woman asked what I was looking for and discussed budget. After I shared the budget range, she responded that I would not find anything in that price range in Orange County. After that, the interaction felt very dismissive. I understand there are

Overall would recommend

Building is very clean. My Mom has a studio apt. It is more spacious than other places we looked at and very nicely equipped with lots of closet and cabinet space, as well as a microwave and full size refrigerator.

Review for Meridian at Laguna Hills

What I will say about Meridian is that it's the most cost-effective assisted living facility in the general area. Other than that, there hasn't been a lot of positives.
