★★★★★
PositiveEveryone was very hospitable. My friend and I were there for Taco Tuesday and met 2 enjoyable ladies. We took a tour around the facility and my friend thought it was very clean and had friendly people everywhere. I had previously taken the tour with [name removed].
★★★★★
PositiveSo far I would rate every aspect a 5. The staff has been patient & helpful during my move. Things in the apartment have all been refreshed or replaced with new. The staff & residents are very friendly. The level of care toward my well-being has been great. I'm enjoying the food & the variety of choices. There is no lack for activities & once I'm more settled I hope to enjoy more of them. Value wise; it's proving less expensive than being in my own home.
★★★★★
PositiveExcellent facility with warm common areas. Rooms are spacious and very well designed. Food was very good and social offerings were plentiful. Only concern was there is independent living, but no onsite assisted living or memory care. Planning for the future and don’t want to make more moves.
★★★★★
PositiveThe short time I have been here, very satisfied. I would absolutely recommend to others.
★★★★★
PositiveMy tour was conducted in a friendly, organized manner. I felt welcomed and comfortable asking questions.
★★★★★
PositiveI would give a 5 to 1 - 7, and a 5 for value as long as the prospective tenants are Veterans. Brookdale is pro-military, and gives a good discount for veterans. So far we are thoroughly enjoying being here. It's almost like immediately being among old friends.
