PositiveMontvale is an extremely nice facility. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for retirement living. The restaurant is open from 7-7 and is much more accommodating than our last facility. Apartment sizes are great.

PositiveMontvale is just finishing a complete interior remodel. I thought the place looked okay before, but this is beautiful. I live in a studio and it is plenty big enough. Three hot meals a day provided as part of the expense. We eat in a dining room with a menu and waitresses serving us. It is certainly a restaurant environment. There are plenty of activities to do and when spring and summer get here I will be organizing some outdoor activities. The staff is super friendly with a great attitude. Most of the residen…
