My mom is at Brookdale Montrose. The housekeeping could be better. The charges are exorbitant compared to other Brookdale facilities. Theirs are completely doubled. The meals are OK once they settle with a chef. We had a lot of chef switches so that for a while the meals were not very good, but they're adequate now. They provide medication oversight and assistance in transferring. They will do a shower with Mom, they will assist in feeding her, and in getting her to activities. For those who want to participate, they have Friday evening music, a happy hour, crafts, movie nights, exercise, and a walking group.

My mother is now located at Brookdale Montrose. She has been there for a week now. Mother is having a hard time adjusting, but the staff has been very supportive and attentive. Her room is very nice. They remodeled it. It's a one-bedroom with a living room, a dining room, a kitchen, and a balcony. It's very nice. So far, we're very pleased. They have a small dining room for assisted living, but they can also use the main dining room if they'd like. She can eat in her room also, if she wants to. The food is very good. It's hot. It looks very nutritious, and it's coming on time. We haven't gotten that far into my mother's stay there, but they have daily activities starting in the morning through the dinner time. They have walking, and they have a van that takes people for scenic rides if they'd like. They schedule all sorts of activities. They always have something going on in the main lounge. Also we walked in on a recognition of staff, where all the residents could come and have refreshments. It was just really nice. The facility is nice, neat, and clean. You see staff out and about. They're friendly, and the grounds at the entrance are very nicely done. They have a courtyard in the back, and it looks like they have a lot of flowers. She is getting good care.

We toured Brookdale Montrose for my mom, and I would say it's very nice. The place was very clean. The people were professional. The rooms and the apartments were spotless. The one who toured us was very nice. I would say the facilities are very clean and very well kept.

My brother is at Brookdale Montrose. They were very helpful in getting us moved in, and they gave us a break on some of the rates (at least for a while). They also helped get us hooked up with an organization for the aide. However, I just got an incorrect bill from them the other day, which basically had been paid, but they charged us more than they said they were gonna charge us. I'm in the process of dealing with them now on that because it's incorrect. They have independent living on the first floor, assisted living on the second floor, and memory care on the third floor. He's on the second floor. It's a little bit older than I expected. It wasn't a new facility, and he is in a wheelchair. It's not totally ADA accessible. The doors aren't wide, so he has a hard time getting his wheelchair through the doorways, but the facility is fairly clean and he says the food is pretty good. The care seems good so far. He's under quarantine, and nobody could go to activities. This place looked newer on the virtual tour, and then when I got there it was older, and not ADA accessible. The bathroom was really tiny. He can barely get his wheelchair in there. He can't even turn the wheelchair around. He literally has to go in forward and then back out.

Brookdale Montrose was excellent. We went to the intermediate care facility. They were very professional and very well organized and offered several levels of care depending on what was needed by the individual. It was very nice, and I was very glad to meet the individuals there. The staff was very caring. They seemed to be more highly qualified than some of the other places that I've seen. They had a good quality staff, at least those specifically responsible for the individuals that were there. Overall, I was very impressed with the facility. They offer quite a variety in their food. We toured some of the rooms and each floor had a different level of access and were guarded.

Brookdale Montrose has some of the largest apartment styles for Independent Living that I have seen. The two-bedroom we saw was beautiful, smelled great and was about 900 square feet! The best part is that their Assisted Living floor plans are identical and have full kitchens. The vibe we got when we entered the building was most unique. I did not expect to see to many active and happy faces. We visited on a Wednesday and there were tons of people in the common area where there was a popcorn cart and a bookmobile set up. Their activities director was so sweet and went through all the different programs my Mom might enjoy. I am very impressed with Brookdale. They know what they are doing.

Brookdale Montrose was fantastic. It was a beautiful place, and the rooms were great and bright. The staff was very nice, and they had a room where there's an outside entrance so I can take my dog out in the middle of the night when he has to go. Their meal selections look very good as well as their activities. Their religious aspect as far as being able to take you to church was very good. I can't really find a complaint with them, and I really enjoyed my visit with them. It's good.

Brookdale Montrose was absolutely beautiful. The rooms were small but very accommodating and clean. I was really disappointed that she could not get in there because she does not have the money. The staff who accommodated me was very nice. They had so many activities, like watching movies, knitting, painting, or just sitting outside conversing with peers. Their dining area looked very clean and nice, like going to a restaurant.

Brookdale is excellent, and that’s where we recommend they go. It’s reasonably priced, clean, and with good food. They have a veteran’s breakfast once a month, and their chef is excellent.

Brookdale Montrose is very good for my parents. The staff have been extremely sympathetic, helpful, and very respectful of my parents. The rooms are spacious. I’ve eaten there three or four times as a guest of my parents, and the food is good. The dining room is very nice and looks like a restaurant. There are many different clubs and crafts, sporting events, and cocktail hours. My parents are pretty mobile, so they treat it like an apartment. They’re not totally dependent on the community for their social life. They go out a lot and have many friends who visit, aside from family. The place has a large community room, a card room, a library, and it’s located very close to a shopping center. They provide transportation for shopping and cultural events. They have a small family dining room off the main dining room, but we have a big family, so that room is not big enough. We’re very, very lucky to have our parents there.

Brookdale was very clean, and the people were very friendly. They had nice-sized apartments. We had a luncheon there, and the food was very good. There were a lot of programs for them to participate in. The staff really explained everything to us and gave us a lot of information. They gave us opportunities for him to visit us for a period of time, which we thought was very good. They take residents out twice a week for shopping. They have a library, a pool, and billiards room, plus all kinds of exercise activities that residents can be part of; you can participate as much as you want or as little as you want. If necessary, you could have your meals delivered right to the room, which is more like assisted living.

Brookdale Montrose was very nice. The lady that took us around was very good. I just got off the phone with her. She had invited us to a barbeque there. They seemed interested in caring for someone who has dementia.

My aunt has her own little apartment here. The rooms have a living room, a bathroom, and a kitchen with a little dining area. She can go down to the little dining room, and sometimes they have some activities down there. My sister said she liked the place when we were visiting my aunt. It is a nice area, and it’s close to the mall and supermarkets.

It was very, very nice, and they were very helpful. We found the rooms attractive, and they seemed to be a good option to really consider. I thought the facility was very secure.

My father is currently here and we are very happy with the facility. He is very happy too. Many people had recommended the facility and that was the main thing as to how we knew about the facility. We are very happy with the staff, the food, the room, and the level of concern they had for my father when he had a problem and he had to go to a hospital. I take every opportunity I can to tell people what a great place it is.
