Brookdale West Palm Beach was exceptional because it was a specially built unit, I guess way back they only had one of those and it was nice. It overlooks the pool and water. The apartments as such were adequate. But this particular unit was exceptional. I have three cats, and they were very accommodating. They said I could bring all my cats with me. And it had a washer and dryer in the unit. It was nice. The other couple of apartments were adequate for somebody. And I think the people were very nice and super clean. So I really like them. If I would have gone, that would be the place. The staff was very sweet, very nice, and very accommodating. She was very busy, but she did take her time to take us around and answered all our questions. And so walking away from there, I was very happy. They gave us a little cake to take home with us, so that was nice. The dining room and everything were nice and clean and airy, which is very important to me. It was not something tucked away somewhere in the corner, but the dining room was very bright and open.

The tour at Brookdale West Palm Beach was satisfactory. They showed me the living quarters and walked me around the whole complex. I liked it. The staff was very nice. The rooms were excellent. The rooms were nicely set up. It was one bedroom with a kitchen, a living room, and a bedroom. They had a rec room. The staff showed me a room in the lobby. They provide your breakfast and dinner.

My mother is in Brookdale West Palm Beach, and she's very happy there. Her apartment is nice. She's been there for five years now. The staff has been very attentive. The food has been very good, and she likes it very much. She is in a one-bedroom apartment and it's rather large, and she likes it very much.

I have toured Brookdale West Palm Beach. It's a beautiful, resort-style independent living. We toured the 2-bedroom and 2-bath apartment and it was very spacious. It's very, very amenable and it had a washer and dryer inside, which was nice. Everyone was friendly and informative. We didn't try the food, but we got a tour of the restaurant. We saw the whole area and we saw the menus.
When we walked around, there were people either playing cards or mahjong. There were people by the pool. We went through the fitness center, no activities were going on at the time but I think that they just had their exercise programs earlier in the day when we visited. It was all very nice, the library and the fitness center. My husband and I were very impressed.
Upon driving up to the place, it looked like they could do a better job on the landscaping. It was kind of shabby but nothing horrible but it wasn't as nice and lush, as I would have maybe thought it would be. Even a little bit of the driveway in the parking lot area, the pavement was cracked and crumbled. Just a little more work and the front exterior, I think, would do. Once we got inside and we saw the facilities, everything was very nice, but the outside needed a little bit of work.

I went to Brookdale West Palm Beach. They're nice. I saw their workout area. I saw two different apartments. I saw the dining facility, the game room area, and they have a nice, big pool. Plenty of activities, game nights. The staff was wonderful.
It is very dated, the ceilings in the halls are really low, the windows on either end of the hall, they don't have blinds, curtains, or anything, and it looks kind of institutional. The apartments had a funny smell. I'm not sure what it was, but it was pretty dark and dated. My brother is active, he drives and stuff, so if you wanted to go out and go shopping, I wouldn't even feel safe for him to be in that part of Okeechobee. It's not a good area at all. There's no cute shopping or restaurants he could go to.

I thought that the people in Brookdale West Palm Beach were caring people. They seemed concerned with my father-in-law's needs and willing to work with us on his needs. The person who gave us the tour was very professional, and they seem like they're willing to take time in answering all my questions. They're doing some construction in there, and they have a dining area. We looked inside. We didn't go in there, but it looked very clean, and it was set up for social distancing. They have painting -- a lot of residents there like to paint -- and they have a computer room with available computers. I think it's a really good place. They're under construction right now, and they're remodeling the main building when you come in -- where the administration and the welcoming center is. It was all being remodeled when I was there a couple of weeks ago. The apartment was updated and very clean. They offered us a meal. They said we could come back sometime, and they'd offer us another meal.

We have chosen Brookdale West Palm Beach for my mom because of the price, the staff was very nice, and I like the size of the rooms. However, it's a little on the old side, and it's under construction right now. They pretty much have everything I needed.
They have food, the convenience of a locked facility, and things like that. But they are re-doing it at this point in time, and I'm not pleased with a lot of what I'm seeing. The staff who attended to me were very nice and very congenial, but I didn't meet a lot of them.

I visited Brookdale West Palm Beach. The people were very nice. The apartments were nice. I could see that they were doing renovations to make the facility better. It was a good experience. They said that the big problem was, it was just tied to the wrong direction. I did not want a half hour drive in the traffic and out of traffic to see my son, then back in to where I'm staying.
The apartments that I looked at were clean. I appreciated that all the facilities included there had washers and dryers. Everything was clean and up-to-date. Their amenities are under construction. They were renovating it so it is hard for me to give an exact idea of what I thought about them. To me, it was crowded and surrounded. I would say that the community itself is like an LA sits in the city. That's not really what I want. That's my personal choice. There was an apartment complex right there, a trailer park across the street, and a 55 plus community. You get out of the immediate community and you are then in heavy traffic as compared to other cities I was used to. I've driven around New York, Washington, and Philadelphia, and all that, and it wasn't that bad. I didn't try the food.

Brookdale West Palm Beach has very nice people but I didn't like it at all. It lacks some cleanliness. The staff was very nice, the lady we talked to was very sweet and it looked like they got along well with the residents. The apartments weren't really bad, some of them were renovated because they're in the middle of renovating them, and they're spacious. The place itself needs cleaning. Their amenities were good and they had quite a few. They have pool activities, they have multiple other activities occurring every day, and they also have multiple outgoing trips daily. There's also a physician that comes to the community. All they need to do is just clean the outside of it, that's all they need to do because everything else is really nice. I know they've already renovated some parts of the building, like they've removed the carpeting and put down non-skid tiles. But the outside of the building, some of the walls black marks on it, the parking lot was full of water on some areas, the parking cement blocks were out of place and shifted to the side with leaves all over. It just needs some TLC. I was also taken aback by the neighborhood, it's not some of the better ones.

I was very impressed with Brookdale West Palm Beach. The community was good and the staff was very good. The place was very nice. I thought that the apartments were much larger than what I would have expected. They all had kitchens and laundry facilities. They were very nice. They invited us to lunch and had lunch with us. The food was good.

Brookdale West Palm Beach was fine. The apartments all looked fine too. The pool was empty. Nobody was in the pool and no activity was going on, which is why I thought it was a little too quiet there. The staff was very pleasant and very polite, although we did have to wait quite a while for them. We had an appointment but they were running over and we had to wait about an hour. The dining area looked fine. The community was very nice. However, it would be nice to have a little more activity, places to go, and things to do there.

My mother is doing good over at Brookdale West Palm Beach. She has the aide service that helps her out. The staff is very good and very professional, and they take very good care of her. They have private apartments or you can move in with another person. They have a schedule of activities. They have a library, they have exercises, and they play cards. They're really expensive. She's paying $2,000 in independent living, and if she goes to assisted, it's $3,000.

Brookdale West Palm Beach is nice, but it's kind of out of the way from things. The person who accommodated me showed me around, I saw the dining room, play room, and so on. They have a swimming pool, a library, a card room, and they also do crafts and that type of stuff. Their dining room was small, and I'm not sure if all the people would fit in there at one time.

Brookdale was old but clean and seemed well run. We stayed there for a few days. The food was pretty good. They had a pool, and exercise rooms. They had card games, happy hour, and trips.

Brookdale West Palm Beach seemed to be fine. The staff member who assisted me was a good tour guide. They have activities like cards and other games, they also have a swimming pool. There were people sitting around the lobby, but there was no activity going on. It was about 3:00 p.m., so nobody was eating, but their restaurant was very nice. The waiters were dressed up nicely. I did eat there because they gave us complimentary lunch for looking around the premises. The food was fine, not big portions though, but it was adequate. They have a lodge and smaller rooms depending on how much more you can pay. The room looked OK, but it was smaller than what I'm living in now.

We liked Brookdale West Palm Beach. They offered us the food, and you could choose from a menu. It was really fantastic tasting food. The apartments were a nice size, and we liked it. We liked the garden area. It was like it was locked around the square like area. It was a very nice atmosphere. The clients over there seemed to be friendly and nice. We enjoyed it. The food was restaurant style which we really liked. The staff was very kind and considerate.

My mother has moved into Brookdale West Palm Beach. So far, she’s extremely pleased. Everything is going well. They’ve been very helpful, very friendly, and very supportive of any of her needs. It seems to be pretty well kept. The apartment that she took was much larger with a full kitchen.

Mom was at the independent living at Classic at West Palm Beach. Since she was in their independent living area, she wasn’t getting the supervision she needed. My mom has dementia, and one time she went down and saw a doctor there instead of her doctor, and the next thing I knew, they ordered all these tests. I didn’t find out about that until I started getting the bills. She went down supposedly to get a flu shot, and I was never able to find out if she really got one because they don’t keep records of their independent living residents. They couldn’t give me the name of the company who gave the shot. I was very unhappy with that. I was fighting constantly with their housekeeping with regards to cleaning. Those were kind of things that I was running into there a lot. It's a good place, but they didn’t take extra little steps for my mom.

The person that took us on a tour at the Classic was very patient and she answered everything. I found the rooms to be very spacious and lay out very well. I thought the food was terrific. My mom was interested in any social activities. She liked the exercises classes and the trivia competition.

Classic at West Palm Beach was one of the facilities that’s not too expensive although I didn’t like it. The rooms were small and the facility is old although it’s well kept. Walking by the dining area, I saw that it was nice. I didn’t see any activity when I went there, but they do have an activity room. Based on the price, I think they need to upgrade it.

The Classic is my favorite so far. It's absolutely lovely. The facility looked clean. The people looked nice and well-dressed. They did have a swimming pool and activities, like music. I took my parents there for lunch because I thought that was a place that they should see. The food was lovely. The staff couldn't have been more helpful. The girl who showed us around was terrific. She told me everything. The apartments that we saw were smaller than my parents are used to, but they understand that when they do this kind of move, they're going to be smaller. We looked at two-bedroom and one-bedroom apartments. My parents won't be considering their two-bedroom because they think it would be too much for them. The one-bedroom was terrific and we saw different versions of them. They all have washers/dryers and closets, so that's nice for them! On the whole, I like the idea of an independent living having assisted living accommodations. So if my mom needs assistance, she can have that in this facility. That's important for me! Because once my parents move, I don't want them to have to move yet again. I absolutely recommend this place to others.

I looked at The Classics and I liked it very much. Their one-bedroom was a little small but their two-bedroom was really nice. I saw their calendar and it looked like they had a lot to do. Everyone was very friendly and I would recommend it to others. They have nice independent living and I thought of putting my father there.
