We visited Brookdale Memorial City and we did not like it. It was depressing. The food service wasn’t up to par, I didn’t like the hallways, and they have separate laundry rooms instead of having laundry machines in your unit. The person who gave us the tour was Joanne and she was fine. They also have a terrible parking problem. The rooms were nice though. They do some activities like bus trips and things. There’s just something about the place, like a vibe, that we didn’t like. The person who gave the tour did a really good job. They need to close the walkways because the walkways are open. It looks like an old apartment complex that has been converted.

Brookdale Memorial City was fine, but the rooms were a little dated. The two-bedroom had a full kitchen, but the kitchen and the bath were both outdated. They have a laundry facility, but it's not in the apartment, which is a drawback. They have a nice dining facility and beautiful gardens, but not a lot of the rooms looked out on the gardens. I didn't notice any patios or balconies on any of the apartments, and most of the walking is outdoors, because you're not enclosed when walking from building to building. They have a movie theater, a game room where you can play cards or checkers, and a library.

Brookdale Memorial City was beautiful. We really liked it, but it's too far away. I liked the rooms and the amenities, but mom didn't like the idea that she would have to eat somebody else's food. I told her she didn't have to eat that, but the fee automatically came with $300 that she could spend on food each month. The rooms were nice and had regular-sized kitchens, which I liked. It's a lot more expensive because they're going to give her food when she's not going to take it. The staff was very nice and very professional.

Brookdale Memorial City (formerly The Terrace at Memorial City) was very nice but too expensive. I met the salesperson who gave us the tour, and she was delightful. It was very large, almost like being on a cruise ship, and very luxurious. It was one of the nicest I've ever seen. It's beautiful, and I would recommend them. I just wish I could afford it. They had a pool, gym, community room, church services, Uber driver, free meals, maid service, and laundry service. It's like a hotel.

Brookdale Memorial City is located just blocks from Memorial City Mall. This is an interactive location near Memorial Hermann Medical Center, restaurants such as the Cheesecake Factory and entertainment facilities. The area is busy, but the facility is tucked away off a main road. This senior community has pizzazz. There are amenities throughout that make this home an upscale living facility. The facility is clean throughout, and healthcare options are available to fit all the needs of the residents. There are therapy sessions available as well as skilled nursing. This is a facility that cares about its residents and providing optimal care. There are activities here including many outdoor activities that allow the residents to experience the great outdoors without leaving the property. Everything needed for seniors to live a well fulfilled life is here including many social activities and outings. Gourmet-style meals are provided and prepared fresh and on site. During mealtime, I witnessed family members of a few of the residents dining with their loved ones. The family-style atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the residents appeared to be happy during mealtime. The residents were also friendly when I passed them in the hallway. Many were being social with one another and most of the staff members were friendly and engaging as well. This facility is top notch as far as care. Everything is organized and explained during the initial visit to make sure the potential resident and their family have all questions and concerns addressed. I recommend this facility for any senior looking for upscale social living where the comforts of home meet high end style and service. Brookdale Memorial City is a first choice facility with the best of amenities for assisted living. The cost to make this magnificent community a permanent home is a little pricey, but the extras can be amended so that it can fit into most moderate budgets. This is retirement in style. Seniors here live out life to the fullest, and the management seems to go the extra mile to assure that residents remain active, healthy, and comfortable. There is 24 hour concierge service, and staff available seven days a week.
