    Review Summary

    The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.

    Residents and visitors alike have shared their experiences at Riverwalk, a senior living facility known for its excellent care, diverse activities, and scenic location on the Hudson River. Many appreciate the caring staff, the variety of backgrounds and nationalities of the residents, and the facility's commitment to providing a comfortable and engaging living environment. The facility offers independent living with over 100 residents, providing two meals a day, housekeeping, and laundry services. The introduction of a new chef has been positively received, with improvements in food quality and choices noted.

    While some find the cost of living at Riverwalk to be on the higher side, others believe the value received—especially considering the amenities like daily meals, bed-making, and laundry services—justifies the expense. The facility's location is highly praised for its beauty and convenience, offering easy access to the city for appointments or social outings. Additionally, Riverwalk is noted for its warm water pool, physical therapy, and occupational therapy services, enhancing the quality of life for its residents.

    However, not all reviews are entirely positive. Some criticisms include the need for more staff in the kitchen to expedite meal service and concerns about the facility's cost. A few reviewers also mentioned the older, converted apartment building's aesthetic and functional limitations, such as heavy windows and an outdated heating system. Despite these drawbacks, the sense of community, the staff's friendliness, and the facility's cultural and heritage emphasis are frequently highlighted as significant advantages.

    Overall, Riverwalk is described as a place where residents are treated like family, with a staff that establishes close friendships and takes their work seriously. While it may not be the perfect fit for everyone—some citing affordability issues or a desire for more activities—the majority of feedback underscores a supportive, engaging, and caring environment for seniors.
