Review

Mill Pond Senior Living is a facility that has received mixed reviews from its residents. One resident, who is not actually a resident themselves but whose 70-year-old mother is, describes the current manager as extremely unprofessional, angry, and downright hateful. This individual claims that their mother has experienced issues such as a garbage disposal backup with a terrible smell and black substance coming out of it. The maintenance staff allegedly did not return to clean up the mess, leaving the elderly woman to clean it herself while she was still recovering from an illness. Additionally, security doors have been broken for weeks, creating concerns about safety among the residents.

Another reviewer mentions that the elevator constantly needs repair, often leaving only one functioning elevator for the entire building. There are also complaints about limited hot water supply in showers, which allows for only five minutes of hot water before turning cold. This lack of sufficient water supply can make showering uncomfortable and inconvenient for residents.

The management also seems to be selective in choosing which reviews to post publicly; positive reviews are highlighted while negative ones are seemingly ignored. Some individuals wonder if their negative feedback will ever be seen by others considering moving into this senior living facility.

However, there are some positive reviews amid the negative comments. One reviewer expresses gratitude towards Miss Margaret for showing them around and remarks on the nice units and helpful staff at Mill Pond Senior Living. Another reviewer highlights how clean and smoke-free the facility is while mentioning some delay in maintenance for ductwork from a previous smoker's unit.

Several other reviewers mention that they or their loved ones feel safe and well-cared-for at Mill Pond Senior Living. They appreciate the caring community and enjoy visiting their elderly family members there. The communal areas are described as nice and inviting, allowing for interaction between residents.

While there have been some complaints about certain aspects of Mill Pond Senior Living such as maintenance issues and unprofessional behavior from management, others have had positive experiences and appreciate the cleanliness, peacefulness, and caring atmosphere of the facility. It is important for potential residents to consider both the positive and negative aspects before making a decision about living at Mill Pond Senior Living.
