We visited Lyndale Abilene Senior Living, and it was very beautiful. It was not the most expensive but it was more expensive than what my friend eventually chose. They have good policies and they work well. The person that toured us around was very positive and very pleasant, not pushy at all. We didn't try the food but we talked to a couple of residents about it and they recommended it. Their apartments have most appliances like a refrigerator, stove, and dishwasher. We were there in the morning and there were several people out just enjoying visiting, and they had benches and rockers outside so it was quite pleasant.

Our loved one was very resistant going into an assisted living community but after a few days when she started to engage with the activities she really opened up and not is happy being there. She also talks about how great the meals and dining service is.

We were very impressed with Lyndale Abilene. They both have independent living and assisted living and that's what we're looking at. It's very cheerful, bright, and it's the only place we found that had a kitchen instead of a kitchenette in all of Abilene. The personnel was ver...

We were very impressed with Lyndale Abilene. They both have independent living and assisted living and that's what we're looking at. It's very cheerful, bright, and it's the only place we found that had a kitchen instead of a kitchenette in all of Abilene. The personnel was very sweet and very nice. It had a little more amenities too. They had an exercise place, a large library, and a puzzle room. My mom likes to plant and they have two courtyards there, which is good, and she could bring her plants and do gardening. They get to have a separate apartment, with a living room and a bedroom, and the kitchen was very large for that small space. It also had a little beauty shop where she could go and just pay, they let them go outside to eat or go to different places like Family Dollar, do arts and crafts, play games, and a separate place that you could use if you wanted to eat with your family members. If you had a birthday or something, they would treat you and pay for it too. That was very nice. Everybody was just really friendly. Even the residents seemed happy. They all had smiles on their faces. They had samples of food and they looked really good as well, and if the residents don't like what they're feeding, they can order from a menu and they have a choice of two meals. They are remodeling the place also, so they're painting it from tan to white. It looks so clean now and it's looking more up-to-date.

The staff members are very friendly and always very helpful. Our loved one purchased a necklace that has a button on it so if she needs any help she can push it and they will come right away. The food there is excellent, and the activities are back up and running. They have a lot to offer and the st...

The staff members are very friendly and always very helpful. Our loved one purchased a necklace that has a button on it so if she needs any help she can push it and they will come right away. The food there is excellent, and the activities are back up and running. They have a lot to offer and the staff are very good about getting the residents out of their rooms to engage with everyone. It is definitely a good value.
