It seems to be going well there. My parents are starting to participate care of some of the activities they have, such as game time and watching documentary films. Also getting to know some of the other residents too. One of the two elevators has been out of service their whole time, sometimes making it tedious to go up and down floors; but in theory work to be completed this week. They seem to like the food and dining set up too.
Business response:
Thank you for your review. We're glad your parents are enjoying activities and connecting with residents.
Was able to have my mom cared for while I recovered from an injury for a two month stay. She received excellent care, better than other facilities we tried for respite care. The facility was clean, the staff caring and there was enough activities for her to stay engaged. I would have kept her there if the pricing was more affordable for the long haul. That said the pricing is competitive for the area. All elder care facilities cost way more than they should.

We are delighted to hear your mom received excellent care during her stay. Thank you for recognizing our caring team and clean community.
My father had to move abruptly because of storm damage to his house where he was still living independently with progressing memory issues. I toured half a dozen places in a week’s time and of all the places, this one stood out. The staff are incredibly caring and helpful and have already gotten to know my dad personally.

I am very happy with the facility and the staff staff. They are very nice and friendly. I did find, on the day we moved my mom in, there was no one really there to give us any direction and we didn't really know what we should do. They assumed that we should know what to do, as we did not. But when we asked any questions, they were extremely helpful to give us answers to our questions. The young people that work in the dining room are extremely nice and friendly. But there seems to be a disconnect between them in the kitchen... read more
Facility is very tidy and located near several churches, drug stores. There is a bus that goes directly to Harvard Sq. Staff are very kind and speak to residents like adults. I would recommend The Residence at Watertown Square to others.
The place is just ok...needs strong leadership. Feels the mbs have taken too much control...with the budget, but not with operations. The recruiter oversells the place, especially in the area of food.. A nice community with room for improvement. It has good potential...just do a good diligence exploration to be sure it's the right place for you
My sibling is a resident at The Residence at Watertown Square. This facility is an extremely friendly place. They make the new residents feel very welcome. We are happy to have chosen The Residence at Watertown Square for our loved one and would recommend the facility to others looking for a facility for their loved one.
My mother has been frustrated with the food. There are not enough green vegetables and the kitchen runs out of certain items on a regular basis.
