The availability of activities such as a heated pool, large putting green, and fitness room with a supervisor was also highlighted. Additionally, they commended the well-trained and friendly staff, as well as the amiable residents.

Another reviewer echoed these sentiments, remarking on the beautiful decor and attractive living facilities at Westminster Towers. Although they noticed ongoing renovations and apartment upgrades during their visit, they overall considered the facility to be satisfactory. The amenities provided, such as crafts, bridge playing areas, and reading rooms were mentioned. Furthermore, they found the dining room to be appealing and enjoyed the quality of food provided. Adequate parking spaces were also considered a positive aspect.

A different individual lauded Westminster Towers' apartments and amenities such as an indoor pool and general aerobics classes. Close proximity to family members was another advantage mentioned by this reviewer. However, they did not provide further details regarding their experience at the facility.

Unfortunately, not all reviews were entirely positive towards Westminster Towers. One person commented on the decline in quality over four years due to staff turnover, decreasing meal standards, and rising fees. They perceived a lack of focus on residents' needs by new administration personnel which seemed to adversely affect both employees' morale and resident care.

Another dissatisfied family member cited increased rental prices twice within one year as problematic for their relative's current apartment situation at Westminster Towers. They also voiced concerns about limited meal options with only one daily sit-down order from a menu while expressing desires for breakfast service or cafeteria-style meals instead. Additionally, they noted missed opportunities to enhance outdoor space attractiveness within the facility's courtyard and raised concerns about limited elevator access in the event of a fire.

Another reviewer who visited Westminster Towers felt that it did not meet their expectations. Although they described the facility as clean, well-maintained, and having friendly staff, they ultimately concluded that it was not what they were looking for.

One individual shared a similar sentiment, stating that Westminster Towers had a lovely dining area but did not fit their requirements without providing further details.

However, there were still several positive reviews. One individual praised the facility's single-floor layout, which would facilitate easy evacuation during emergencies. They also lauded the courteousness of the staff and appreciated the availability of mini-buses for shopping trips and transportation to medical appointments. Furthermore, they found the security system to be reliable and mentioned quick staff response times when assistance was required.

Another individual provided high praise for Westminster Towers, noting its cleanliness and helpful staff. They particularly enjoyed the quality of food offered at the community.

Finally, one family member recommended Westminster Towers due to its value for money compared to other options in the area. They highlighted its convenient location connected to a church and stated their overall satisfaction with recommending it to others.

In conclusion, reviews on Westminster Towers have been generally positive, with residents expressing contentment with various aspects such as spacious living areas, recent renovations, amenities like pools and fitness rooms, friendly staff members, and enjoyable activities. However, some reviewers lamented declining quality standards over time or expressed concerns about increased fees or unsatisfactory meal options. These mixed reviews provide prospective residents with a broad range of perspectives on Westminster Towers' offerings and inform them about potential areas of improvement based on personal preferences and expectations.
