Recent reviews of Independent Living in Boxborough, MA
Sunrise of Newton
5.0

I have been here since [date removed]. Every day I feel loved by the staff. I have notes because I can't member names and that embarrasses me. The food is better than I can prepare myself. This is a great place to be.

Scandinavian Living Center in West Newton, MA
4.8

The whole place has a very friendly atmosphere. SLC offers a lot of programs that are open to people who live in the surrounding community, so the residents feel like they are still part of the community. The food is very good. I would recommend Scandinavian Living Center to others.

Cadbury Commons in Cambridge, MA

Our experience with this community was good, overall it is kept pretty clean. The care services are pretty reliable, the activities were however a little bit weaker. The food at this community was very good, and we really liked the responsiveness of the staff and the availability the memory care unit had

Nice place, great people. The only downside to the place is the individual hvacs are old, and need replacement parts that apparently are very hard to get. So the heat is always on.
