Highly recommend

Montvale is an extremely nice facility. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for retirement living. The restaurant is open from 7-7 and is much more accommodating than our last facility. Apartment sizes are great.

[Name Removed] was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and made the tour a great experience. We were genuinely disappointed to hear that she is leaving. The property was clean, well-maintained, and very impressive. We also loved seeing the remodeling progress and are excited about the improvements being made. Overall, it was a wonderful tour experience.

Felt like home, treated like family

My mom passed away recently, but she was very happy here and truly loved living in this community. While she didn’t participate in many activities, we saw them often, and everyone always seemed engaged and happy. She loved her unit—it was bright, clean, and comfortable—and she thought very highly of the staff. The maintenance team was especially helpful; the head maintenance staff member was incredibly kind and went out of his way to assist us with things like her shower head and installing under-counter lighting. [name removed] at the front desk was also very kind and welcoming. In fact, everyone we encountered treated us like family, which meant a great deal to us. Saying goodbye after she passed was very difficult, but we’re grateful she was in a place where she felt happy, safe, and cared for.

FANTASTIC PLACE HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Montvale is just finishing a complete interior remodel. I thought the place looked okay before, but this is beautiful. I live in a studio and it is plenty big enough. Three hot meals a day provided as part of the expense. We eat in a dining room with a menu and waitresses serving us. It is certainly a restaurant environment. There are plenty of activities to do and when spring and summer get here I will be organizing some outdoor activities. The staff is super friendly with a great attitude. Most of the residents are very helpful and friendly. Montvale Senior living is a fantastic place to live.

Growing pains

Our former Manager was escorted out in less than a month. The assistant was moved up to be manager. She is young but very inexperienced. She has grown into the job rather well. I think that Arrow is too big in 4 states and wants us all alike. We have been without a chef since December. We are still very understaffed. They have made the servers cooks! There is basically no staff on the weekends. Arrow has added a receptionist from 7 to 4 on the weekend. And the administrative staff leave at 4 daily.

Staff are friendly and professional. Some bonuses, like on-site PT, are unexpected benefits. Restaurant style food service is a delight.

Review for The Montvale Senior Living

Easy to sign up and move in. Really happy with the renovated units, so warm and cozy. Food is usually good, sometimes not so great but can always order Montvales great ham and cheese omelet- you'll never go wrong there! Really happy with the layout of everything but new carpeting will definitely be an improvement!

The remodeling will make this nice looking place look fabulous. The staff is caring, friendly and available. They are always open to new ideas for activities. You get out of it what you put into it. There is always something to do if you want. Located in a very safe area with stores within walking distance.

Things to know

The place is understaffed; I have seen management company changed in July and they are more interested in show than people and INDEPENDENT Living is emphasized. The leaders do not enforce the rules. A new man moved in Saturday and he has 2 large dogs which have created havoc and he doesn't pick up after them and he was too friendly with a pretty lady and she threatened him that she would call the police. I love my 2 bedroom unit and I would hate to move again but it is in the back of my mind. I didn't look anywhere else when I selected this one.

Montvale Senior Living for my Mom

My mom moved in mid-summer after having a tour a few months prior. As soon as a studio apartment opened up my mom received a call and management worked with her to make her transition an easy one. The other residents that live there have been very kind and my mom has made a group of lady friends she has lunch and dinner with every day and if my mom doesn't come down they check on her and ask if she needs any thing and bring her up a plate. There are daily games you can get involved with my mom enjoys that and the Bible study! I am so happy my mom can get out of the house now and not only get involved with things to keep her busy but also socialize. Montvale is currently making some upgrades and my mom is very excited about that. One of the big things residents are excited about is the meal time will be available 7am to 7pm soon breakfast all day. You won't have to he down to eat at a set time (currently 8am, 12pm and 5pm). Very happy mom is at Montvale!!!
