Recent reviews of Senior Apartments in Shelby County, TN
King's Reserve Memphis
5.0

What I like the most about King's Reserve Memphis is the peace and quiet and I would recommend this community to other families based on the experience I have had so far

Luther Towers in Memphis, TN
5.0

They are great! We love it, and our loved one loves it too! We are familiar with the location and it's working out well so far! We are happy with our choice!

Embassy Apartments in Memphis, TN
5.0

The Embassy is an ideal place for nearly anyone, but happens to have a large number of elderly, as it seems well suited to this age group. My mother, who is 81 and in excellent health, moved to an apartment here about six weeks ago. She is delighted with the security, cleanliness and convenience. The residents she has met so far are friendly, sweet and love living here. The buildings (two high-rise towers) are well maintained and very quiet, with the best location in Memphis. From her roomy balcony, Mom has a wonderful view of the city. PLEASE NOTE: My mother does not require assistance and is fully independent. The Embassy is NOT an assisted-living residence or a nursing home. Those services are not offered here. Overall, our family has peace of mind knowing Mom is in a comfortable, safe, charming place that she loves. We couldn't be happier!
