Most reviewers highlight recent interior renovations, good food, and a full activities calendar, though a handful of serious complaints about care lapses and an outdated memory care space stand out against the largely positive tone.

AWFUL...After moving my 95 year old mother into memory care and the facility getting BEDBUGS and them not doing anything about the problem, we moved her out. DO NOT give ALTA VISTA your business. It's all about the money for them.
