Pleasantly Surprised
reviewed on: 10/01/2021 by Kerry RI know the owner of The Lorelton and was hired to install brass railings. I was pleasantly surprised that the building was so well kept for being so old and historic. The staff and residents were all friendly. What a great idea to repurpose a school into a place for the elderly.

A Comfortable Place with a Home-Like Atmosphere
reviewed on: 09/29/2021 by Loretta CMy mother has lived at the Lorelton for nearly seven years. I am most impressed because staff members not only know my mother very well, but many also recognize me. They keep me informed about any medical issues that arise. They have always been willing to talk to and meet with me when I've had questions. Mom has a comfortable apartment. She's made friends. She enjoys going to the movies and attending the musical performances by outside groups. The Lorelton offers many other activities, too, including crafts, exercise classes, and games. I think staff members do their best to make the Lorelton a comfortable place with a home-like atmosphere.
