My father was in Carlton Senior Living San Leandro for a very short time. He needed to go to a rehab type of thing and the hospital sent us to a couple of residential care and they were awful. We talked to Carlton Senior Living and they had an area that was not in memory care, but a one-on-four, more intensive supervision and care. We thought my father would manage with dementia in that setting for maybe a month and then move him to memory care when they had room in memory care. However, he was only there for two hours. It would have been my first choice of where he would move, but I ended up having to take him home because he was just teeth-gritted, wild-eyed, and just nuts. He was using a walker and they can't contain him. They don't have room in memory care at the time, so they wouldn't be able to keep him in the building. It had a nice open environment, a nice big eating area, and a big sunny living room where people gather and do activities and things. The memory care was a large area with an outdoor area. The rooms would be either private or shared. They were nice sized with different options, but at the time that we needed to move him, they didn't have any space. The food looked great, but I didn't have the opportunity to try it. We thought they could manage my father in assisted living. It's not a locked area, but the administrators were excellent in trying to help us convince him, "You're gonna get stronger." We spent an hour and they did everything they could. They were very helpful on the phone a couple of other times. According to them, they have a lot of different activities going on there.

Carlton Senior Living San Leandro is right on the street, so the rooms tend to get a lot of street noise. I'd like to move my mom to a 1-bedroom, but the 1-bedrooms that were available in San Leandro were all facing the street. Basically her view would be of the street and her window would open...

Carlton Senior Living San Leandro is right on the street, so the rooms tend to get a lot of street noise. I'd like to move my mom to a 1-bedroom, but the 1-bedrooms that were available in San Leandro were all facing the street. Basically her view would be of the street and her window would open up to the street view. The room that she has at the other place has redwood trees out the back. This facility was an option, but she has a little dog and needed a little more space than a studio. The way they're set up is more like an apartment-type building, where all the 1-bedroom apartments are over the lobby; the lobby is right when you walk in off the street. The tour guide was great, and the place is kept up.

I went to Carlton Senior Living San Leandro. The people that work there were really nice and seemed really capable. The facility was clean and well organized. The people living there seemed to be doing alright. It's a pleasant atmosphere. They had activities and meal services. All of that was fine. The downside for us is that we felt like there wasn't much outdoor space. It was just one building. It had a back patio, but we were looking for more grounds for walking and doing stuff outside. We were looking for trees and views with more of a pretty natural setting. It was really urban. For the most part, they were doing everything as good as they could.

My mom moved into Carlton Senior Living San Leandro. I like the place a lot. It is clean, friendly, helpful, and just a good place. Her room is clean, taken care of, and watched. It's very good. The staff are wonderful, and they have been awesome. They're really good people. Based on my ...

My mom moved into Carlton Senior Living San Leandro. I like the place a lot. It is clean, friendly, helpful, and just a good place. Her room is clean, taken care of, and watched. It's very good. The staff are wonderful, and they have been awesome. They're really good people. Based on my experience, the food is OK. They don't have a dining area for the memory care; it's just sort of at a table, but it's fine. I'm very happy; otherwise, she would not be there. I know that they have a bingo thing. Also they take them for a ride in a van, so that's cool. It's way too much for what I'm getting, as far as what I'm paying. I know I pay for the staff, but I just think they're too expensive. For my money, when I look around, they seem to be the best. You got to pay for what you want.
