Review for Merrill Gardens at Greenville
Management can always be counted on. Last year we were without power for several days. Staff came in and slept in the building, took food to people that were unable to climb the stairs cooked outside on grills, had pizzas delivered, etc. Recently there was a gas leak because a workman broke a pipe. They made sure we all got out of the building., arranged for us to go across the street to another building until it was safe to come back. they had arranged for buses to bring us back to our building and they had pizzas waiting for us because they couldn't use the kitchen.

Good news about Merrill Gardens
The food is very good to me even though a lot of renters here complain. There are numerous activities that everyone could find something to do. Trips, games, Happy Hour, birthday celebration, etc. everyone is friendly. Workers make an effort to remember everyone's name.

Excellent facility all around
I visited with my mom and was impressed all around. The staff was friendly. The residents were welcoming. The food was excellent and there were lots of options. Everything was modern and clean. The shared spaces were very nice. There seemed to be lots of activities. The price was reasonable for the amount of amenities included. My mom has since moved in and hasn’t been disappointed.

EXTRAORDINARY SHOWING
[name removed] walked us through and showed us every aspect of MERRILL GARDENS, including the storage available to renters. Her knowledge and enthusiasm increased ours as well, and made us truly excited about the prospct of renting there. Though we are not ready, because of her excitement about the whole operation, we are equally excited and delighted knowing about this option. She also spoke highly about the family that owns all of the apartments throughout the country. The are fortunate to have her as a spokesman for their company!
