This facility is our worst nightmare! Everything is super old there are holes in the walls garbage on the floor a terrible stench as soon as you walk in the door. Rooms are shared and super dated. Everything about this place is terrible. Do not let your loved one stay here!

My mom spent three weeks at Avantara Mountain View before returning home. The staff was fantastic, and the facility was clean and well cared for. They made a difficult time much easier, and we really appreciate the care she received. Thank you!

I do not recommend this facility at all. I had my dad there only 24 hours and that was enough. He was not taken care of properly.

My brother has been at Avantara Mountain View for over a year now. The staff have always been caring and open to listening to any suggestions or grievances. No one is going to be 100% happy in a Nursing Home, but I believe the staff do their very best to make the residents happy. I would like to give 5 stars, but just can't. It's a nursing home...so no matter what you do, it's depressing at times. If you are considering a nursing home, I can honestly recommend this one.
