Colebrook Village at Hebron

5.0
Colebrook is a well designed, beautiful facility. The residents are friendly and care about each other. Our fabulous staff members work tirelessly to keep us involved, safe and cared for.

Commonwealth Senior Living at Haddam

4.5
I am comfortable that my mother is in a safe place. I think the staff are very nice. My mom tells me she enjoys the activities, and she likes playing bingo and cards. The food I tried was delicious, although Mom is less thrilled with it. I think it's a good place overall but a little pricey.

Atria Crossroads Place in Waterford, CT

4.2
Our first impression was with the community itself, it is so clean, very bright, open, sunny and airy. Most of the staff members have been great, but we have had a few issues that take much longer than needed to get resolved and some of that has to do with their responsiveness.
