Value for cost

We liked this one but decided against it for two reasons: 1. Too expensive and 2. Could not wear jeans to dinner so a bit too “fancy” for my mom

The cleanliness of this community is very good, and the staff members are absolutely wonderful. I do think it is a good value, and overall the place is nice, but the only problem i do have with it would be their rental policy. The activities are wonderful, we have happy hours and ice cream socials. The activities director is fantastic. there was two things that attracted me here, first was the residents and the staff, they are were very friendly. Second would be the facility itself, it is very nice and as well as the amenities.

Sombery Sandy Springs did a very good job with keeping the residents safe and healthy from COVID during the pandemic. They also were good about keeping the residents and family informed. The food was mediocre at best, the wait staff was very slow. When they delivered the food, it would arrive cold and they had very limited choices. They ended up living off of peanut butter crackers and hot dogs because they did not like the food. My in-laws had bed bugs 4 times. The person in charge of the facility was unforgiving when it came to the bed bug problem and it was not getting solved. In a non-COVID environment, I think she might have been more accepting, but I do not think the director is a very easy person to work with.

Very helpful in getting my parents acclimated to the life transition.

This community has so many amenities and activities. From the heated pool and multiple exercise classes to the movie theater and all-day bistro- there is no time to get bored. The people here are super nice and the staff is exceptional.

It is the next best option if I can't be in my home.

This is a fun community to be a part of everyday. The people are interesting to be with and the entertainment provided is great. We love living here.

Enjoyed the tour with [name removed]. Beautiful community with lots to offer. Location is exceptionally convenient to shopping, dining and doctors/Hospitals.

Beware! Somerby at Sandy Springs no longer employs a RN to be Director of Health. There are only LPN’s in the buildings. Other Somerby’s have an RN on staff. I will be moving my father because of this. When I moved him in I was told there would always be a RN and the nurse that left was terrific. This is a high cost facility and should have an RN.

This is a beautiful environment. There activities are plentiful and there are several options for dining. The downside is the horrible 400 traffic and they are building so much more along that corridor it will only get worse. Their prices, for me, are a bit too much. 2BED/2BTH-$4,895 per mo.$2,500 just to enter there for a residence which some others charge as well.

The property is beautiful. The 2 bedroom 2 bath independent living apartment I looked at for my mother had a full kitchen and lots of closet space. A real plus compared to other properties.

While this facility is attractive and the staff seems nice, I cannot recommend it because the food is so bad and the service is terrible. The dining experience is a major part of the day for senior residents and I am amazed at how poor it is. My mother was originally at the Somerby in Alpharetta when it opened. The food there was good. The menu was much more extensive, and the service was adequate. It is just the opposite at Somerby in Sandy Springs on all three accounts. In fact, I dread going there to eat with my Mother. We have complained, but it doesn't seem to improve. Again, I would explore other facilities, before making a decision.

Fabulous place, food and people. Very nice to have so many fellow veterans around too.

The only thing better than this 5 star facility is the 5 star employees who make this facility a 5 star community.

After much research, I chose Somerby late summer – 2014 and I am very pleased with my choice. I moved from a large house so it has been an adjustment. I love the staff! The food could be better - other than that, I’ll mark great.

Very satisfied.

When I looked for a home for my mom when she moved from Maryland to all – the two most important criteria were safety and great care. At Somerby we have found both. My mother is very happy. I rest easy knowing she is well cared for. The fact that Somerby is a new and beautiful sunny building is the king on the cake. Highly recommend!

I work with seniors and have worked at several communities in the area. After visiting this community I am pleased that the employees and building are among the best. Everyone I met was smiling and very friendly. Such a large beautiful and clean building!

Such a pleasant experience to visit Somerby Sandy Springs – even from the moment I first stepped into the lobby area. The high ceilings, comfortable furnishings and soft palette of colors gave me a sense of well-being. Every staff member that we came in contact during our tour, greeted us warmly. There genuinely seems to be a sense of pride among the employees. All of the dining and many social gathering areas are so welcoming! The units are spacious, extremely well designed, tons of natural light and nicely appointed kitchens and baths.
