I was very happy and impressed with my personal tour of Brookdale university. My guide was pleasant, helpful and informed. I felt I got a good feeling for the services provided by Brookdale University as well as the cost of those services.

Brookdale University Park

The staff is not as attentive as I had hoped. The facility is clean and the meals are okay. But housekeeping tends to be lax and the housekeepers often don't show up when they are supposed to.

Lots of Room for Improvement, Especially Dining

Apartment is OK. House cleaning is marginal, but used to be good. Dining has gone from fair to mostly bad. Most of the activities are either entertainment or resident run games.

Life at Brookdale

I have been here for a year and a half. Staff is wonderful and were very supportive after my wife passed away 7 months after. We moved in. She loved the place too.
