Brookdale Boise Parkcenter Independent Living

Rebecca

Brookdale Boise Parkcenter was a very nice place and I was very impressed with it. It was like a resort, you walked in and there's a huge fireplace which was very nice. The staff was great. However, they didn't have a private room for my mother. They had a big activities room with bingo, they had in-room entertainment, it was like you can take puzzles and crosswords back to your room, and you can check them out like in a library. I saw some people walking around and just hanging out. They also had sections, they had a 2 story section which was kind of neat, and some of them had balconies.

If I could do it, I would move to Brookdale Boise Parkcenter. The community was outstanding by itself, everybody has a Life Alert necklace there. Within the independent living cottages, they have the ability to call for help if somebody falls. Just walking into the place, it was really very nice and well maintained. All the landscaping was very nice, everything seemed really updated and modern, and some of the residents I saw were really cordial and happy. They showed me around and I saw a couple of two-bedroom apartments that would be OK, although they were a little small. The nice thing was they have their own individual kitchens to cook in, if they don't want to go down to eat. They showed me a copy of their menu, which was pretty good.

Brookdale Boise Parkcenter was a nice place with nice people. It's conveniently located. The main guy who was going to meet us there didn't show up and the receptionist showed us around, so we couldn't get any financial information. We looked at a couple different apartments, which weren't anything special.

I wasn't quite as impressed with Brookdale Boise Parkcenter. There was a bit even less staff around than the other places I visited. The apartments were nice and well taken care of. They have a good layout and a good space for the value. The dining area was nice, large, and open. I didn't see any other common areas other than a sitting room.

Brookdale Boise Parkcenter is a place that served dinner, but it's very slow. I actually visit people who live there, so I looked around and didn't like it. The rooms were fairly nice, but it's a little smaller than my current community. One of the reasons I didn't like it is because it's not as close to activity and everything I would use.

We looked at the cottages at Brookdale Boise Parkcenter. They were undergoing some remodeling. In general, we thought that was a little too small for us in terms of what we were looking for at an intermediate stage. The layout was fine and more conventional. We saw one apartment that was in the main building. The people were nice. The dining area had a table with chairs. It wasn't rundown. There was linen on the tables. There were some people who were sitting and being served, and someone showed us a menu. They were repainting and there was a whole bunch of things going on. The facilities were a little older, so it probably needed some of that. We met with the manager and a couple of people who live in the cottages. They were very friendly and seemed to be happy.
