★★★★★
PositiveWilshire Estates Gracious Retirement Community
The staff are all very caring. Activities and food are getting better. I love my studio apartment and yes I would recommend Wilshire Estates to other families based on the experience so far.
★★★★★
PositiveThe management and staff were extremely kind and friendly. It is a calm and clean, happy place. We were grateful for the thorough tour.
★★★★★
PositiveGreat value
There has been a lot of transition so activities will probably improve. They are also looking for an Executive Chef so hopefully the food will improve! The value is great.
★★★★★
PositiveOur families experience
What we like the most about the community is that their staff are very friendly. There are so many included amenities, if only my aunt would utilize them.
★★★★★
PositiveIt seems a nice place and nicely run. The location seems so so ( a residential neighborhood north of Silver Spring). I am definitely considering it as a place to live in if I need some assisted living when I retire.
★★★★★
PositiveI'd highly recommend it
There has been a complete turnover of staff just in the last week. I was responding based on on the previous staff. I have not met the new people yet. As for the facility, it's very clean and there are a lot of amenities. The common areas are kept nice as well as the outside grounds. My mom's apartment is perfect for her and the bathroom is big.
