As indicated by my ratings we just feel Aster is a wonderful place for our mom however the food needs improvement. Luckily mom has a full kitchen in her apartment so does not use the dining room that often but the times she has she has been disappointed. We have heard that complainant from all the residents we have talked to. We did not ask them about the food they volunteered the information. Food has no flavor very bland. From what we understand it sounds like it use to be better but has changed but cannot confirm that.

My daughter picked this community. I'd tell my friend that I really liked it here and suggest she call and make an appointment to come look at it.

I have visited several other assisted living and skilled facilities in the area and Aster Place was by far, one of the best & who we ended up choosing for my grandfather. Their staff was beyond helpful. They took the time to walk us through every step, making the admission process, costs & service's explanation, very smooth & easy to understand. The facility itself is absolutely beautiful, well kept & has AMAZING food! There are many other assisted living options in the Lafayette & surrounding area, but we were 100% satisfied with our choice of Aster Place. The entire time he was there, our family felt very secure and knew he was well taken care of. I would recommend every time, without a doubt! Thank you for caring for our family like your own.

I wouldn't recommend Aster Place currently. The community seems to have my loved one at the highest level of care, and the family isn't seeing the value from this on what they are providing to our loved one. The staff communication with the family is okay, I think it could be better though. It would be nice to see more follow through on requests from our loved one's doctor. There are three meals a day served to the residents, and there are choices for the residents to choose from. It would be nice to see the staff take our loved one to the dining room, instead of delivering meals. This would allow our loved one to socialize more with the other residents. After 7 pm you have to ring for staff to allow visitors in the building, and we have had to wait more than 15 minutes for staff to answer the call to allow us in.

The move in and move out process was seamless. Everyone made you feel welcome and would take the time to answer your questions. I wish that you only had to pay for the time you are actually there instead of the whole month. For that reason we probably will not use this location again for short term use. I was really pleased with the experience. I know my loved one was safe and that was what mattered the most.

The curb appeal truly is the way it is. What you see is what you get. It was higher rated than any other facility that we toured in Lafayette. They were very helpful. The food was great my aunt said. The only complaint was that if they do have deliver it to the room it is an extra $3 dollar charged. Overall I would recommend I have recommended this facility to 4 of my friends.

They're close to a 5/5 rating. However, they have new management that has been slow to make sure things are kept up. For instance, the bus broke down and there was no urgency to have it fixed. Employees were parking in the front lot where guests park, so there were no parking spots for guests. That has been corrected, but it took having a meeting with higher-ups to get this done. Meals are not good and not worth the cost if a person has other options. (ie can still cook and get groceries). I am very happy with the cost of rent.
Most of the staff is fantastic. They are caring and considerate. The biggest issue is they always seem short handed and not well organized or managed. While my mother get good care she doesn’t always get care. Sometimes showers are missed and when you are only doing 2 showers a week that’s unacceptable. The food is generally good.

Aster Place seemed really nice. I liked it the best of all the places we looked at. The rooms seemed bigger, and I liked the activities better.
Aster Place is beautiful, my apartment is just wonderful but the atmosphere is just not what I was expecting. The activities are still pretty limited and when I have gone to the activities I have been disappointed. There is not much communication, and maybe that is because I live in a cottage away from the main building but I feel ignored. Whenever I have questions I am not sure who to call so I wish they could hand out a staff directory or something.

Meal service is a disaster. Long waits-quality of food is poor-not sure they are really catering to desires with residents. During COVID lockdowns-some meals not even received. Lack of communication between staff and clients improve not needed.

Our loved one absolutely loves the meals and dining service, and the staff let the residents have small jobs like calling out bingo which makes them feel important. Right away they made our loved one feel comfortable and just went out of their way to make her feel welcomed into the community.

The most important thing is that he's happy. And he's very happy there, which is big for us. He has fallen once, and they called me to let me know, which was nice. He loves the food, and right now it's chef prepared. They offer a lot of activities. His apartment is good. It's smaller, which has been an adjustment for him. But he seems to be adjusting okay overall.

Aster Place is a beautiful facility with caring staff and great food. The rooms are decent sized and are pet friendly. There is a gym to work out. A locked memory care unit is offered for loved ones suffering from Alzheimer’s.

Very attractive newer place. The rooms were nice but seemed small, and storage/closet space was lacking.

Very beautiful. Main reason we did not chose this community is it is all on one level & you had to walk a very long way from your apartment to dining hall.

My dad died as a result of a fall in their parking lot. If it hadn’t been for a kitchen worker going out for a smoke, god knows how long he would have been lying in that parking lot. They are all happy happy when they lure you in- even using their residents singing to a pianist to seal the deal. They can only handle the elderly that don’t need much assistance beyond a substantial meal

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.
Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
