Overall Review of The Harrison

differentiator 14 reviews mention this

Restaurant-style dining stands out

Dining is a major talking point, with residents describing both strong meals and occasional misses.

Several residents say the food is good and they can usually find something they like, and others mention specific touches like a salad bar. A few reviews also complain that meal quality has declined at times and that some options for dietary needs were limited. The community also offers restaurant-style dining, room service, and guest meals as part of its listed dining approach.

  • An open-plan living and dining area with cozy seating and wood flooring.
  • A cozy living and dining area with stylish furniture and a warm ambiance.
common 26 reviews mention this

Staff feels friendly and responsive

Residents and families frequently describe the staff as friendly, polite, and helpful.

Across many reviews, people mention warm, welcoming interactions at the front desk and during everyday care, along with helpful communication during visits and move-in. Some residents add that specific team members were attentive and supportive, and others highlight caring collaboration with families. A minority of reviews contradict this with complaints about not getting timely help or feeling that care communication could improve.

common 16 reviews mention this

Building layout and cleanliness impress

Residents often comment on cleanliness and an open, bright feel inside the building.

Many reviewers describe the community as clean, well kept, and bright, often calling out the open atrium and viewing areas. People also mention spacious rooms and indoor common areas that make it easy to see what’s going on. A small number of reviews raise serious cleanliness concerns, including reports that go beyond typical day-to-day upkeep.

caveat 9 reviews mention this

Communication and medication timing vary

Communication can be inconsistent, including issues getting in touch and medication timing concerns.

Some families say they receive good updates and clear information during care events, including being informed about falls and facility status. Others report difficulty reaching staff, onboarding confusion about who to contact, and delays related to medication delivery. In these less-positive accounts, the concern is not just communication style, but whether staff respond quickly enough for day-to-day needs.

caveat 5 reviews mention this

Maintenance and staffing concerns recur

A recurring concern is that maintenance requests and staffing coverage don’t always meet expectations.

A few reviews describe maintenance items not being fixed after repeated requests, alongside issues like delayed cleaning updates. Others mention concerns about limited transportation availability and staff coverage, and at least one review reports severe pest and infestation problems. There are also reviews that say the team tries to address issues and keep the place clean, but these caveats appear often enough to stand out.

common

Pricing is below county and state

Pricing for studio and apartment options runs below county and state comparisons.

The listed monthly price range for studio through two-bedroom apartments is positioned lower than both the county and state benchmarks used for comparison. That doesn’t guarantee every experience is the same, but it does mean the sticker price is not described as an above-average cost relative to those benchmarks.
