What Families Think

Families describe CityView as a warm, well-located community with attentive, long-tenured staff (especially memory care staff like Dawna B. and Murielle) who help ease difficult transitions for aging parents and spouses with dementia. Alongside many glowing reviews, a notable number of reports describe serious lapses—slow response to call buttons, staffing shortages, billing disputes, and cleanliness problems—especially clustered around ownership and management changes over the years.

The Good

  • Staff frequently praised as warm, patient, and attentive
  • Dedicated two-stage secured memory care neighborhood
  • Rooftop deck with 360-degree city views
  • Below-market pricing compared to similar LA communities
  • Daily activities: art, music, outings, Shabbat services
  • Close to Cedars-Sinai and an adjoining rehab facility

The Bad

  • Multiple reports of slow or unanswered call-button response
  • Several reviewers cite understaffing, especially overnight
  • One detailed account of billing disputes and unlawful eviction claims
  • Reports of inconsistent management after ownership changes

The Court Memory Care Program | CityView | Los Angeles

Two Specialized Living Areas

Welcome to The Court at CityView, where we provide the finest care for residents with Alzheimer's and other related forms of memory loss. Geared to help these residents live life to the fullest, this separate and intimate area of our senior living community provides memory-challenged residents with all the extra help they need as a result of dementia, Alzheimer's disease, or short term memory loss.

Residents can relax in our outdoor living space while enjoying a breath of fresh air and sunshine.

My sister has had Dementia for at least 7 years. We searched for a Memory Care Facility quite extensively and City View Memory Care came in the number one choice for us, because of the amazing and caring staff, activities, large bedroom and clean facility, with a variety of programs offered. Dawna has been absolutely wonderful, paving a smooth and organized path for us to get my sister, helping to place my sister at City View. As well, Celia, Marcia, Avi are extremely knowledgeable, helpful, caring and kind. The on-staff caregivers and med Team are also wonderful. They engage with my sister and the other tenants and help to keep them safe, clean and comfortable. Thank you to City View Memory Care for making my sister feel "at home", as well as my family!

Dawna at City View Memory Care in Los Angeles has been instrumental in making the journey easier and smoother than we could have imagined, admitting my sister (who has Dementia.) She is smart, kind, caring, cheerful, and truly goes above and beyond to make sure that my sister is made comfortable and cared for and that my family and I feel confident our sister is in a safe and happy environment. The staff is all wonderful! Celia, Marcia, Avi, Mendy...and etc. all an excellent top-notch team working there.

My family’s experience with CityView has been wonderful from day one. Placing my father into memory care was one of the hardest decisions we’ve ever made, but the quality of care here has given us incredible peace of mind. From the moment we met Dawna B., we knew we were in good hands – she was compassionate, professional, and walked us through every step with clarity and empathy. The entire team is attentive, warm, and truly cares about every resident’s dignity and well-being. I’m so grateful to have found a community where my dad is happy, safe, and thriving. Thank you, CityView, for the exceptional care you provide!
