Review for Solstice at Grand Valley

I had a few questions after the first few weeks, but got my answers readily and communication is great. The residents were very welcoming and engaging. All the staff have been great. I would recommend to others.

Changed ownership

There was an ownership change and the food quality went down, also there was a water main break that displaced my father for 3 months which was hard on him.

Family's experience

My parents are not enjoying the dining, they say the food is not good. They like their apartment. They also had an issue with the cleaning staff did not clean their apartment for 2 weeks. My mom has been asked by the staff to look out for or care for another resident that may have dementia. My parents have not come to live a solstice to look out for other residents.

do a good search before turning over a small fortune every month for your new home

What they tell you during the tour is quite different from what happens after you're hooked in here. They are very quick to tell you, after you are here, we are INDEPENDENT living, not ASSISTED living. Some of the staff are helpful, friendly, and enjoyable. MOST are not. The food and meals are a joke the cafeteria is always freezing cold. You have to wear extra clothing when you go down there to eat. Food is always served cold,. EVERYDAY they are "out" of something, even to running out of food before everyone is se
