I toured Bickford of Iowa City for my dad. The staff were friendly, warm, and welcoming. It is nice, clean, and is like a complete circle (not long hallways).

I would tell others the community was wonderful. I like the personal touches the community did for the residents and families. It was a smaller community all on one level. I wouldn't change anything about the community.
