My Grandson is going to perform
reviewed on: 07/27/2017 by AnonymousI really love living here I lived in another Brookdale Community and this is by far a better choice. First it's very close to my daughter which is important too me. There is a beauty salon in the building but my daughter takes me out to get my hair done. There is so much to do I've played bingo and cards but I didn't care too much for that. However in the 2 months that I've been here I've read at least 2 shelves of books in the library. The food is wonderful here but one thing I don't like is that the waiting staff does not clean off the tables after the first shift is done I do it myself. Other than that the staff is wonderful very helpful and the housekeeping through out the place is very good.

reviewed on: 03/02/2013 by A Place For Mom CustomerVery close to my home and could provide transportation to my follow-up appt at Kaiser Fontana. The facility itself needs better maintenance and cleaning overall.Cobweb's on the ceiling in the main lobby, stained carpets in some hallways, the elevator looks like it never gets cleaned or vacuumed and there is a lingering odor throughout the facility. I went by on another day to get paperwork and was taken care of by a pleasant young gentleman named Michael. I think he is one of the managers. He made me feel very welcome and assured me that they could do whatever I needed to make my stay comfortable and invited me come back for a second tour to see rooms other than the original one I was shown which was at the far end of a hallway across from a room that had the door open and had the worst order coming from it. Overall, this facility is not as clean or well maintained as it could be but I am still considering it due to they being able to provide transportation to my follow-up appt and it being close enough for family to visit.
Welcoming Community
reviewed on: 07/26/2017 by AnonymousBrookdale Riverside is a beautiful and welcoming community. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We choose Brookdale Riverside because it was more affordable and their fees were more specific about what they actually charged for. The communication is great between the family and the staff. My father -in-law seems to be acclimating to the move. When he first arrived he really liked the food, now not so much. I think he is bored with the food. There are snacks and refreshments available for the residents between meals. They do offer activities, but my father-in-law is not the type who is inclined to participate in activities. They are in transition of getting a new activities director so maybe that will help to get him inspired to try out something new. Shopping trips are available for the residents, my father-in-law has utilized the bus to Dr. appointments and the bus driver is great. We feel very good about the choice that we made.

New owners!
reviewed on: 01/23/2017 by AnonymousWe are not happy with the Brookdale. They made a lot of promises before move in that now they say because of budget cuts with the new owners, they can not do. The rain from the storms has been getting into the resident's apartments and all they do is give the towels! The billing has also been all problems and it is impossible to get through to the corporate office. Before move in, we had to clean the apartment it was not ready for us.
