Carriage Inn at Katy

This community is AWESOME! The property is well maintained, they just did some small renovations. The staff is FANTASTIC and accommodating. My Dad Ken is extremely happy here and I am so happy for him

My family and I toured this community recently for our Mother. We loved the close knit feeling of the community and how you felt like home when you walked in. The staff and residents were so nice. Sadly Mom is digging her heels about moving but we hope that one day she will call Carriage Inn Home.

Our loved one is not to thrilled with the food that they serve, but they have made really good efforts to keep the activities going with all the limitations they have encountered.

We chose Carriage Inn because it was the best bang for the buck for everything they were able to offer. She is in the smaller apartment and it is adequate, the other ones are great size. I would let others know that your family has to log in from the front entrance, they cannot just walk into your apartment. There is also no washer and dryers in the apartment, you have to use community ones, but they are free to residents. I would recommend to others looking.

It a very caring facility. You can call anytime and the communication is good. The staff cares about the residence. I am very pleased with the community and I would recommend this community to others.

The staff members at this community are a ten out of ten, there are just so friendly. Anytime we have had an call and resolve and issue they are helpful and the communication is great. The rooms are good for our loved one, and we would say the food is very good.

We chose Carriage Inn at Katy because of the convenience to family, we had known people who have lived here and they always gave it high marks, and the price also was good for the family. His room size here is adequate for his needs, he also has a balcony. My favorite part about the community is the convenience to everything, it is around restaurants, shopping, cleaners, and not far from health care, everything you would need. I would recommend.

My mother in law had a large room with a patio and that was a good value for the money. The food was horrible when we first came here, but the new director turned it around and now the food has improved. One thing we did notice during our time here is that there is a lot of turnover with the staff members and management. I would recommend Carriage Inn at Katy for independent living residents, but anything past that I would not, especially not memory care.

I have lived here for 9.5 years. I think they really try to make it as comfortable as possible. You can't expect a place this old to be perfect. They take care of any problem as soon as possible.

The staff could not be more kind, helpful, and caring. I can't imagine it being better.

I am 93 years old. This review will reflect on my age and my past history. I lived in Beaumont Tx - husband died- daughters helped me tour this facility. Yes, I've made friends quickly, taught 3rd grade - yes, there are good and bad days. My responsibility! I'm grateful for food help and happy life.

It is a convenient place for me to have my mom. I am not always convinced that when I am not that they are keeping her active. The caregivers seem to be really friendly and loving, when I am there. I chose this community for its location, cleanliness, and in the beginning it was a good value. The charges have increased by 27% in the last two years, which was disappointing. I would recommend this community to other families.

It is a kind and welcoming place with good direct personal care. They had a turnover in directors that led to some uneven supervision. We chose this community for location, to be near family. The food is a little above average. They do have good variety and the dining staff are very client friendly and accommodating. I really liked the nursing staff, caregivers, the housekeeping and dining staff. I would recommend this community.

Our family took 3 years to convince our dad that assisted living was the way of life he required, but since he's been living there, he is happier, healthier, more sociable, and loves getting up in the morning. We were confused with all the services available, at first, but the staff (Especially [names removed]) took the time to explain in detail what was at our disposal. We hope to be a part of this big family for a long time.

Getting aging parents to "make the move" is often difficult and challenging, and ours were no exception. We'd been talking with them about it for over two years; mom was keen to do it, dad was determined to stay put. Still we continued to look for options in preparation for the day when we might have to act fast. Then one day, after my sister and her husband went to see Carriage Inn and fell in love with it, we were able to get our parents to visit -- then everything changed. Mom and dad moved into Carriage Inn in March 2018, and we couldn't be happier! The complex is rather unassuming, but as soon as you step inside you feel a difference--it's warm and inviting. The entire complex is clean, odor-free, well-maintained, and tastefully decorated. Mom and dad chose a 2-bedroom apartment and really appreciated being able to selected new carpet and have it painted to make it feel like home. Since the apartment has huge picture windows in the bedrooms and french doors that open into a beautiful, park-like courtyard, they are able to hang feeders and enjoy the birds whether sitting inside or out on their patio, something that was very important for them. The residents in their building have been very friendly and welcoming, and when we first visited, we asked them about their experiences living in the apartments; they had nothing but positive things to say --always an encouraging sign! And after 10 months, we have not been disappointed nor regretted making the decision to move our parents into Carriage Inn. Everyone who works there is friendly and caring, and the they all made a real effort to get to know our parents (and not just their names!). The staff is so helpful, whether answering questions or assembling bookshelves, they are quick to lend a hand or address any concerns we have. It's a great feeling to know we can pick up the phone and call the front desk for assistance on almost anything that comes up. Our dad especially has enjoyed getting to know the staff in the dining room and kitchen -- he looks forward to going down to breakfast every morning since he can have a full meal with all the trimmings, so to speak, without having to cook. All of us have enjoyed coming over to having meals with them, and have found the food choices delicious and plentiful. It's been satisfying to see them both putting on weight after not eating regularly because it was getting too difficult to cook. Our family also appreciates the wide range of additional services available should they need them, and Mom loves having regular housekeeping. In fact, for the first few month our parents kept telling us it was like living in a resort -- no cooking or cleaning! And while dad was resistant to giving up his keys when he turned 90, he's starting to enjoy having a chauffeur, too. It has been a huge relief for our family to have our parents living in a facility where they can be as independent as they want to be, but secure in the knowledge that help is just a few minutes away should they need it. Our family encourages you to check out Carriage Inn to see if it may be a good fit for your parents, or perhaps even as an option for yourself!

Mom has adjusted well and seems relatively happy. She wanted a private room and they had one available. The staff is friendly and taking really good care of mom and her needs. They will try to engage her in the daily activities. The housekeeping does a good job of keeping things clean and well kept. They will also do her laundry for her. Mom says the food is fine and have options to choose different things if you didn't want what they served. They have a nice outdoor area she will love when the weather is nice. I would recommend this community.
