I loved everything about Atria Park, they were just awesome. They were everything we were looking for in a facility. The staff was super helpful and they were very one-on-one and attentive, which was great.
Read moreMy mother moved into City View several months ago. She is definitely enjoying living there. The people who run it and work there seem to have a genuine liking and concern for the residents and are always looking for ways to improve the experience of each individual resident. My mother especially enjoys the roof top views of Los Angeles, as well as the view from her own room. She is also pleased with how well kept and clean City View is. I have eaten a number of meals there with my mother and I find the food to be very tasty, healthy and well prepared. They take special note of the diet issues of each resident.
Read moreThere are lots of activities for the residents here. The facility is very bright, cheerful and full of light. I love the atmosphere here. The staff is great and the residents seem very happy and active. They interact with each other well.
