I had a wonderful experience touring San Leandro Living Community. The environment felt incredibly friendly, clean and welcoming from the moment I walked in. The staff were professional, highly knowledgeable, and very personable. What I appreciate it most was that they were incredibly thorough setting the right expectations and provided tons of great information without making me feel pressured to sign up right away. The units themselves are nice and a decent size. I definitely plan on revising in the future when I’m fully ready and would love to check out a third floor unit when one becomes available. Highly recommend taking a tour!

Moving my parents into assisted living was a big step, but the team at San Leandro Senior Living made the transition remarkably smooth. Today, they’re happy there. We chose this community for its clean, contemporary private suites—each with its own bathroom and wet bar—at a price well below comparable Bay Area options. Just as important, the staff consistently tailors care to my mother’s special needs. When issues arise, General Manager Glenda and Business Office Manager Lisa work with me to address them quickly and thoughtfully. Resident Services Director Olive keeps a close eye on emergency response procedures and medication management, and the staff calls me right away whenever something needs my attention. Dining is another highlight. Chefs Abel, Judee, and Anna gladly adapt menus to provide Asian-influenced dishes while meeting my mother’s dietary requirements. Activities Director Linda keeps my father engaged with field trips and even solves his tech glitches, while designing lively programs for all residents. Caregivers Nancy and Roselyn know my mother’s routines by heart, ensuring she rests comfortably and maintains her preferred hygiene schedule. And the residents themselves are wonderfully warm—greeting my parents at every meal, holding my mother’s hand, and showering her with affection. San Leandro Senior Living has become an extension of our family, and I’m grateful to have them on this journey with us.

The facility is clean, safe, and in a great location. The staff is friendly and caring. They are led by a management team of Lisa, Glenda, Linda and others. They are detail oriented and oriented to detail. If a problem arises they are quick to respond in a timely manner. I’ve been here for almost a year and have no issues. This was added one June 4th…The residents are provided with a long list of weekly/daily activities (bingo, trips by bus to stores, meals) guest speakers covering a myriad of subjects and even live performances by bands. The facility is continently located in downtown San Leandro for shoppers. Local transit and BART are within a couple blocks as well. Finally, the outstanding staff asks an and listens carefully to our concerns and input on a variety of subjects. Posted June 20th We had a “town meeting” this week. It was very informative, well-planned and open to all for input. Management asked for our input on a variety of topics, including how to improve the day-to-day operations of our facility. All inquiries were well received, openly discussed and ready for for discussion. This is a prime example that our management team cares about the residents. The meeting was followed up with a recap memo delivered to our rooms. This is just one example of management’s pledge to keep all residents informed of any follow up of any and all concerns. This is a great technique to let everyone feel important and a valuable member of our community, especially those who could not attend. In summation, our management team always has taken the “extra step” in updating and caring about the community.

Moved my grandmother here in November ‘25 and have nothing but great things to say about this place. Friendly staff, solid activity calendar on a monthly basis, and they make an effort to celebrate holidays for all residents to enjoy. You can tell they care about their senior community.

I scheduled a tour with Kashir because my mother is looking for a nice place to live. Let me tell you how wonderful and welcoming that staff here were. The tour was very thorough and the staff we encountered were amazing! My Mom was very pleased with this place. I highly recommend it to anyone that’s looking for location, cleanliness, space and more. Thank you so much Kashir for making us feel so welcomed. Sincerely, Sary R.
