Recent reviews for assisted living in South Phoenix

Atria Park of Sierra Pointe in Scottsdale, AZ

4.6
Best is the staff is great and friendly, they care about the residents. Also the rooms are very good sizes. Worst is it's expensive, worth the money as far as value but still expensive.

Legacy Retirement Residence of Mesa

4.1
I would say it is definitely a community you should consider. The evening and night staff were not as attentive as they should have been. They were not consistent with a night-time regiment and did not check on him enough during the night.

Robson Reserve at Sun Lakes

5.0
Their meals were outstanding! We love love love The Renaissance! Unfortunately my mother-in-law couldn't get along with her neighbor so it was her problem, not the communities, but we decided to move her out. We're still sad that it didn't work out.
