We were completely impressed with everything we saw at the Brookdale Foundation House. We liked the people, the facility itself, the decor, the layout of the common rooms, and the lobby. The only thing I will say that was better-looking in the other place we toured was the workout room. They do exercises here, mostly where you're sitting down and doing upper body exercises. They had a wonderful inner courtyard. The dining room was great, and the menu was great. Not only the rooms, but the way that their bathrooms were set up was really neat. There were lots of extra places to hang on to things. They had a really nice kitchen area with a full-sized refrigerator. They had a game room, where they did different little gambling and bingo. All of the staff members that we saw were really upbeat and enthusiastic. We didn't get to try the food, but the menu looked very good.

I like the location and the facilities at Brookdale Foundation House. The rooms are nice and well-taken care for. They do bingo, a drum class, exercise class, walking, field trips, and my father enjoys the shuttle service that would take them shopping and other places. All of them are super helpful and friendly. I like the way they do their menus and the little kitchens they have. They can also take the food to their room and I love all the chairs and how they've set it up. It's almost like a restaurant or a hotel versus old folks' home.

I've visited Brookdale Foundation House, it's a very nice and very lovely place. They have very nice amenities and nice rooms and it's a fairly large place. There's a central area where it's all kind of pretty much together, there's a library, dining room, visiting area, entertainment, and the things that they have there for the people. They've got everything that I would need, and they also provide shopping and excursions and trips and what you're going to need when you're limited on what you can do. They provided it all there. In that place, you don't have to go upstairs, you've got elevators to go up the second or third floors and nice wide hallways for people in wheelchairs. So they've got plenty of room to maneuver, it's a lovely place. it wasn't brand-new but it was up-to-date and very nice. They offered everything there, they had independent living, assisted living, and then the nursing home. It's all there. I saw some people there eating and it looked good and they're being served. It's not a cafeteria, it's like eating in a restaurant.

I visited Brookdale Foundation House, and it was great. They were very friendly, the place was really clean and well organized, and the staff was really great, too. It has pull cords in case of emergency, it has Wi-Fi, and it is TV ready. He is getting a studio apartment on the first floor, and he loved it. The bathroom was great because it has a walk-in shower. It was very spacious, and the kitchen was great, too. It has a small-sized kitchen, but it had a full-size refrigerator in it. There was a microwave, an oven, and a pantry. They had different types of rooms. They have a library and a room where you can eat with family when that opens up again. There are fireplaces all around the area to keep people warm when it is cold outside. They have a piano, I think an exercise room, a little store, and a phone that during COVID times you can use to call and talk to a person while you see them outside, like your family or something like that. But they're starting to let one person per family come in during the day to visit for a little bit, so that is cool. This one was the best option for him. It is close to where we live. My daughter lives only a few minutes from where he is going to be living. There are a lot of different stores nearby. There is a Kaiser clinic that is right there, too. It was just a perfect location.

I'm moving in to Brookdale Foundation House. I chose it because the price was better for me. I wanted a 2-bedroom, which I got. They seem to be friendly and open. They have been very good at working with me. I've eaten there several times and the food was good. They had all kinds of things going on, but I haven't experienced any of it yet. The people that I've talked to are very happy. I have no complaints.

We chose Brookdale Foundation House because we want to be somewhere in the suburbs of Seattle. A nice woman showed us a cottage that we loved, and we signed the contract. It was a beautiful place. The deciding factor was the cottage and that the location was excellent. We think it suits us very well. The cottage is spacious with bolted ceilings, a full kitchen, washer and dryer, a whole closet, two bathrooms, and two bedrooms. It was being refurbished with beautiful marble countertops. Having a garage was a big help, too.

Mom has been at Brookdale Foundation House for about 3 weeks. It was the only one that she really liked. It is very good, and we would recommend it. The staff is very friendly, and the communities are very clean. It’s a couple of miles from the mall; you could take the bus there. They do exercise programs quite frequently, and they do bingo and Wii bowling. They go out on trips; they have shopping 3 times a week.
