Five Star Residences of Dayton Place

I picked this place because it checked off all my boxes. They are top-notch and I am thrilled to be here.

Everyone is super friendly and the residents themselves are equally helpful and welcoming. The move in process was so easy! I would recommend Five Star Residences of Dayton Place to others.

I picked this community, because of the value, moving expense covered, offered one bedroom vs studio apartment.Friendly, plenty of activities, close to shopping, and they have caring staff.

My family and loved one have had an average experience with Five Star Residences of Dayton Place. The staff are down to earth and friendly. The community has a homey feeling versus the hotel feel you get at bigger pricier communities. Overall, this is a community we would suggest you look into to see if this is a good fit for your loved one.

No one from the staff greeted my dad and told him any information without him calling about everything. There is an activities calendar, but my loved one has only been here a short time so has not participated in any yet. They were nice and negotiations for meal plans and move in dates were super accommodating, but after move in everyone was scarce. The maintenance people have been friendly. Several neighbors have brought over treats and have introduced themselves. Seems like a nice community. The cottages there are a great size and updated. Perfect for my parents.

My mom is so happy at Five Star Residences of Dayton Place. The staff is welcoming and accommodating. The housekeeping is dependable and consistent. Communication with the family is fabulous. They've also recently updated several areas (library/eating hall/bistro/exercise area), making it more welcoming and beautiful. Chef [name removed] asks the residents for weekly input into the menu planning. He's always asking/sitting with residents while they enjoy their meals. There's also awesome alternative menus always available. "Welcome Home".....that's how they greet you with your keys. I would absolutely recommend this facility to others.

The tour experience for Five Star Dayton was a 5 the first time and a 4 the second. The facility was very nice. But the admissions person was new and didn't necessarily know the answers to all of our questions that we had. Their prices were very reasonable though. They are also going through a 3 phase renovation of the cosmetics indoors. This was where my mom said she most wanted to live when she visited this summer. She loved the dining room and our guide [name removed]. They definitely changed management between the summer and when we looked again. The apartments are spacious and have laundry in each plus a large kitchen, which was nice but not needed when they serve 3 meals per day. They have cottages that share a pool, but independent living residents don't have access to the pool unfortunately.

I would have liked more information about my loved one's hygiene habits as they avoided showers. I would definitely recommend this facility. They were wonderful. They made sure my loved one was well cared for and included in activities. My loved one enjoyed the happy hours and social activities. The food and waitstaff were also wonderful. The laundry was probably what my loved one was most impressed with.

Was a nice stop on our tour visits, some things our family didn't like that the other top one in our list had to offer. Decisions to be made, everyone was very friendly and warm.

We chose Five Star Residences because the cottages here are very nice. They have cleaning twice a week. In the cottages we just get breakfast, it mostly comes from Cisco so they aren't chef prepared meals. It is just a very attractive place in and out, they take great care of the grounds.. All of the staff and people we have met are friendly. I would recommend to others.

Awesome. They have great staff that really take an interest in their clients. [Name removed] is wonderful and always has a smile on her face. [Name removed] is a great Director and goes the extra mile to do the right thing for her clients.

Most like a nursing home of any place I have seen.

Very good. I really liked it but it wasn’t in our budget

Overall, I feel that Morningstar leaves something to be desired. My room is nice, and they do keep it quite clean, the food is excellent, and the staff are very nice and helpful. However, there aren't enough staff members. I regularly have to lay in my bed and wait for over an hour for someone to help me up in the morning. I like the staff, and I think they do the best they can with what they have, but they are in sore need of more people.

My sister lives here. So far, there have been positive and negative experiences. She’s fallen on more than one occasion and the response time for the staff to help her has taken too long. When she first got moved in, her alert system wasn’t even working and sometimes she has to wait a while for a nurse to come by. The food isn’t the best either, which is sometimes the most important thing about these places. However, she likes the unit she’s in and she seems comfortable in it. They do help her get to and from doctors’ appointments and they have a bus that takes the residents to the supermarket. Overall, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend this place to others.

MorningStar has been a generally positive experience for us. They are doing well there as far as getting my loved one settled in with oxygen and medication and getting him comfortable with his surroundings. [Removed] has been particularly wonderful with my loved one. The facility is clean, comfortable, homey, and I love the diversity of the community. We have had some issues such as money being [Removed], questionable housekeeping, and communication that could use improvement, but overall, I know that my loved one is secure, safe, and not going hungry.

I looked at Morning Star when I was looking at different living options for my parents. When I went on a tour, I was just lost. We were over in one part of the facility, and then we were in another. It was just too confusing, and I could just imagine my parents getting lost there as well, so I chose another community.

My mother in law is doing fantastic since her move into this community. Everything about the place is great. When my husband and I arrived to tour Morning Star, as soon as we walked in I told my husband this was the place. All of the workers are so friendly. I would recommend this community to anyone looking for assisted living and independent living.

The staff at Morningstar at Dayton Place are wonderful. Everyone we met, from the managers to the housekeepers are incredibly caring, helpful individuals. I can't say enough about how warm and welcoming they all are. In addition, Morningstar is very attractive, has spacious apartments, a wide variety of activities that are well attended by the residents, and a wide variety of tasty meals in the restaurant style dining room.

I am happy to see that my parents are happy here.This is a nice community with excellent staff who are helpful and caring to their needs. We like knowing the community is clean. The menu could use a little help. The are liking the activities.We would recommend the care and the value for other families.
