It has been an especially good stay here. The women who assist us are very thoughtful, the food is good, things clothes and bedding are kept clean. They do a great job!

5 / 5.0

I have a family member that lives at Avonlea of Sterling and she loves it. Its very 'home-like', when having dinner (the food is amazing) it's like sitting at your kitchen table at home. When visiting all the staff says hello and are very friendly. They are attentive to the seniors that live there. ...

4.7 / 5.0

I would recommend this community to others. The friendliness, cleanliness and the care my loved one received stands out to me. Everyone was introducing themselves as I walked around. The activities were shown to us, but it was very few and nothing my loved would have participated in.
