    My mother has been at Merrill Gardens at The University since February and we have found it is a great place for her. We know that she is safe. There are many interesting activities for her, if she wanted to participate. I encourage her to. Her favorite thing is people watching. From the start, I found that the staff and residents are very helpful and will go out of their way to help. Merrill Gardens is a very bright and warm place. We love all the beautiful flower arrangements, that make the place very cheery and happy!

    I'm so very glad that I found Merrill Gardens at the University for my 93 year old mom. It was a BIG move for her, leaving her hometown in Michigan after 93 years - with no family members within 2,000 miles of there - to move to Seattle where 4 households of family members are very close by. We have found the location amazing: so close to University Village, parks, farmer's market, medical offices, the university area, restaurants, grocery stores and quick access to the freeway and downtown. The setting is lovely: First floor with the lobby, library, dining room, and bistro are is so open and light with HUGE windows looking onto the serene courtyard with beautiful plantings and flowers. There are several grrreat walking possibilities: 1/4 mile around the block and 1/6 of a mile around the courtyard (however many times you want), and the Burke Gilman Trail and Ravenna Park nearby. My mom LOVES her apartment: A balcony was very important to her and she loves hers. The all day dining option and the food quality is very good and the staff are incredibly sweet and accommodating. And the residents are mostly just down to earth, friendly, good people. My mom feels very at home here. And kudos to the entire staff who put on such wonderful all community events. My mom says she is very happy here and would recommend living here to people who are looking.

    My mom has resided at Merrill Gardens for almost 5 years in Independent Living. She loves it! The staff is wonderful and truly cares about the residents. You can see it in their interactions. She enjoys the food quality and appreciates the ability to make special requests. The facility is well maintained including a lovely recent renovation to the common areas. They are communicative with family members and have been great with any changes to her care needs.

    We helped a friend relocate from his apartment to Merrill Gardens at The University. Sometimes people view moving as if things are not going to get better. The staff at Merrill Gardens made it a positive experience. Our friend messaged me “I am luxuriating in my new apartment.” So many of his concerns, cleaning , food prep and transportation to medical appointments were taken care of. The other residents were welcoming, interesting and happy. We are not ready to move in just yet but we have our name on the future resident waiting list.

    The staff, the facility and the residents all make Merrill Gardens at the University a very, very happy place. It’s so open and cheery. Almost like a vacation resort. People are smiling and like to chat. My friend had moved in there and I’ve already put my name on the list to eventually move there too. It’s the best senior living facility I have ever seen!
