I love it. It is so clean. It is not only designed perfectly for the older individuals but also the handicap person. The rent is so reasonable.
SINCERE, HONEST and GENUINE...These are just a few words to express the experience you will get at Arden of Warrenville. If you want to experience all these things when looking for your new home and you don’t want to be treated like just another “renter,” this is the place to go. Arden is interested in you as an individual and finding the right unit/floorplan to fit your wants and needs. A place to call home for years to come. They are not just getting you in to fill units like many rental communities do. They aren’t just telling you what you want to hear but genuinely want you to be happy living here. Thanks, Arden of Warrenville and [name removed], for finally giving the Western suburbs a place that treats renters with the same respect as buyers. Thank you for recognizing that many of us are not just people who live somewhere temporarily, but who want to live in a place and community that they are proud to call home.
I like the location of the apartments and the building is always very clean. She has only been here a short period of time - but during her stay so far the things that have needed to be taken care of have been taken care of quickly. I think that the staff do a great job. We would recommend The Montclare to others looking for senior living.
