I have been living at Merrill Gardens for the past three weeks and I am very pleased with it. The food is delicious, the staff are friendly and accommodating, and the facility is beautiful. There are plenty of comfortable places to sit and socialize, including a fireplace lounge area, bistro, patio, lobby and dining room.
