It is always clean. Sometimes, no one is at the front desk or they do not greet me and ask me to sign in which concerns me about the renters safety and security. There are many healthy, ever changing options for food. For activities, I would give this a 10 if I could. We're not real happy about rent going up yearly, my Mother's budget is static and we based our decision to come here mostly on cost.... Read more

This pace is the best in the area for price and because the apartments are huge! Even the studios are 500 sq feet which I'm feeling more inclined to choose for my 228 lb Dad vs the same price 380 studio at mt other . Very clean and bright, plus both employees and residents all seemed happy.

This community seemed to have their act together. The director came and introduced themselves. The activities person seemed good and was encouraging the residents to participate in some of the activities. The marketing person was great to work with. This community allows pets and they keep it well taken care of. The rooms were nice and I would recommend taking a look at this community.

In the process up pricing a community for my mother, Hammond Glen was the most welcoming. James is a true Asset. He answered all our questions honestly. He seemed to know his residents & employees. He is an excellent first face for Hammond Glen. He is a very strong employee. Need to update the lobby to be truly competitive.

Our mother-in-law has been at Hammond Glen only a month, so it is still early to form an opinion. We are happy with the overall environment - it is clean and well kept. She seems very happy with her apartment and has met a few neighbors. The staff has been helpful in getting her cable set up and assisting in other ways. She is still acting a bit shy, but we see some positive signs that she is socializing more, which is so important to us. Place for Mom was a wonderful resource for us - I don't know how we would have narrowed done the choices had it not been for the excellent guidance provided. Thanks to the staff and best wishes!

A very nice senior living facility. It is very clean and the administrative staff are very friendly and helpful. My mother has been there for just a few months and her apartment is quite nice. The food is very good and the activities program is okay. I recommend Hammond Glen to Seniors that are totally Independent.

Tour and lunch with Cathy Torbush was a delightful experience. One of the residents invited us to come up to the penthouse (10th flr.) to see her apartment. It was beautiful and spacious. Lunch with Cathy was great. We had the oppoortunity to meet and talk to the chef from New Orleans who was very friendly. All our questions were answered. Cathy also gave us a recommendation for someone in the estate sale business who could help us with the many things in our home that need to be disposed of in a way that would not be giving them away. Thanks again for the referral!

My mother is very happy here and I can't think of anything negative to say, the positives are shes happy there and they are remodling, so thats an intrusion on everybodys life...she's ready for the new carpet to be in. I think she likes being where she is because shes a big city girl and we tried her living in Talahassee with me and that was too small for her. Shes very close to Roswell rd. and the location is really good for her. Shes met alot of new people and shes participating. All in all im very happy with her there and I dont have to woryr about her falling, even if she did I know they would be able to take care of her.

The staff was very accommodating and helpful. They worked with us to find the best fitting options for our situation. They have a variety of different options when moving in here, one that we really like was the option to chose how many meals you would like them to provide, so it keeps the cost down. They allowed us to stay at the community for a few days to get a feel for what they offered. The food here is very good and they have a variety of meals that they bring in but they also have a menu that the meals don't change. Once a week they have a produce truck come out to the community so the residents can buy some fresh produce. They have different levels of care so loved one are able to age in place. It is a high rise with about 9 floors but it is extremely easy to navigate. We are very pleased with them and would recommend them to anyone.
