Truewood by Merrill, West Covina

They went through a recent upgrade. It is wonderful! My mother has been here for almost 10 months and is thriving. She enjoys the Holiday Buffets and making new friends! The staff is helpful and always ready to help if we have a concern or need.

The common area was very open, airy and beautiful, and the unit was fully refurbished, clean and light. They were independent living so no lock downs, but had extra care available with bathing and cleaning, which she needs.

This is a great place for someone who is fairly independent. While the caregivers from [removed] are amazing, they don’t have enough staff to provide one to one care. The food is great and they always have a choice of at least two options. The director was rude and the customer service has some room for improvement. Overall, this place offers a nice environment with lots of activities for residents, but my family member needed more care.

Very nice and comfortable facility for my mom. She seems happy with the food and her room is quite large and clean. The rent is very reasonable and the location just off the freeway is convenient for visiting.

when it comes to the cleaning in my opinion the first main entrance lobby was the only area that is nice and clean. The second floor carpeted area is in bad shape, that includes the big dining area. I remember the first day walk through with [name removed], she said they were going to clean the carpets soon. However at our 3 months nothin has happened and now we notice bad odors. We would recommend families to probably walk through first before signing any documents. With the foods, at our 3 months we never saw anything but bananas and oranges low quality.

My mom was previously a resident at Truewood by Merrill West Covina for a brief time and her experience was great. Everything at this facility, head to toe, met our expectations and then some! Her stay was as good as could be expected under the circumstances. I would highly recommend Truewood by Merrill West Covina for Assisted Living.

I moved my sister and husband there. The signup and move in activities went smoothly. Helpful all around, including maintenance staff in connecting Internet and TV. At first dinner a couple of residents volunteered they had moved from another residence and were much happier.

Price was reasonable and room to haggle depending on what the needs turn out to be also adjustable as needs change.

I love it here. I feel like I have come home. The people who work here are exceptional and most residents are nice too. The food is so much better here. It is hard to explain how much better this place is. The apartment sizes are great! Much bigger than where I lived previously. They have assistance in house if needed and at very reasonable rates. I am so glad to be here.

Everyone at Truewood West Covina was helpful and the process was easy. Of course, I would recommend this facility to others.

I am very happy here at Truewood by Merrill West Covina. They make it very comfortable and [name removed] is very professional, thank you. The cleanliness and friendliness are great. The care services, meals and activities are also great. Additionally, they are pet friendly and we have a dog park here. I would highly recommend Truewood by Merrill West Covina to family and friends.

My Mother was briefly a resident at Truewood by Merrill West Covina and our experience with this facility was just great! The staff at this facility was wonderful. Communication with the family was great. We had no experience with the meals or activities, so I can't rate those. Otherwise, I would highly recommend this facility to family and friends based on their level of attention, kindness, cleanliness, and overall value!

Well they treated us great. Always friendly and the dining room was like being on a cruise. One member of the staff stood out, her name is [name removed]. This lady bent over backwards to help my Mom get settled in there and took care of everything.

This was a great placement for my Aunt. We picked this community because, I liked the ambiance. I could get her a room with an outside door so I didn't ever have to worry about lockdowns and not being able to check on her. Their pricing was fair. The apartment was roomy and light, and in good repair. They let her keep her dog. The outside was also very appealing with lots of greenery. They have a caregiving business Saving Grace available for assisted living services so she can age in place. I loved everything about it.

The ground floor has been remodeled and has a fresh look. The top floor has not been remodeled and because of that it does not look as clean or fresh as the ground floor. I am not using the care services at this time but the people that are there always speak and talk no matter if they work for you or not. There was a change of ownership right before we moved in and the staff think that there is a plan to redo the top floor also. The top floor does need to be done and the dining room could use it also. The location is great and has a very rural beautiful setting and the convenience to shopping is only about five minutes away which makes it easier for the residents. The general manager is really great with her team, she runs a tight ship and is great with what she does, the sales manager and the daily care staff, and maintenance it wonderful also and have all been there for us promptly.
