I toured Brookdale Brea. I thought that was an excellent location. They're very structured. I had a really good tour. They have a lot of programs for seniors with different levels of care, and the tour was very comprehensive. I got to see the living quarters, and the apartment, as well as when I went there I think it was 11:00, and I saw seniors having their lunch. And I saw what was provided. It was excellent. Seniors were getting on the shuttle bus to go on excursions. So I think it's a very well-run organized senior home and they told me that there was a resident who was 110 years old. The second oldest senior in Orange County. So I think I thought that was amazing. I saw the menu. They have the two entrees on display at the entrance of the dining area. So I saw it was very good, just the right portion, I think, for a senior. The receptionist was very friendly, and the person who provided the tour was very, very good. She explained everything in detail, and gave me a lot of information.

Brookdale Brea was on a busy street, but overall, the place was amazing. They have all kinds of stuff there. They take them to the movies, sometimes to the beach. They have bingo, people that come in and speak, and movie nights. They got stuff going every day of the week if you wanted to stay busy. The dining room was beautiful and there's a three-hour window for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. So, you didn't have to be there at a certain time. The rooms were a good size and clean. That part was great. There's one to share with somebody. It was all good. I had no complaints about any of that. The staff were professional. The place was spotless. People all seemed happy. The staff and the people in that community were friendly with each other. It seemed like a pretty happy place. They have a beauty shop where a girl comes in once a week and does manicures. They do bank runs twice a week or trips to the 99 cents store or library if you want. They got all the things going on all the time.

Brookdale Brea is very thorough and very informative. My mother-in-law was able to pick her own room and have a carpet installed for herself. She's very picky, but she's very happy with the food there. They have an arts and crafts room where she went down yesterday to make jewelry. They have a movie room where she can go and watch whatever they show for the night, which she was very pleased with. The staff is very friendly and very cooperative. They were very helpful at moving her in, getting a cart, and moving her items into the room. To me, they are very young, but they are very attentive and helpful. It's very clean. There's no odor. It smells very fresh there. Her room is very well-kept. They have a laundry room and all the machines are working. Everything seems to be in order and they give you a daily sheet of all the activities for the day.

I toured Brookdale Brea. It was very pleasant. It was very clean. The rooms were nice. The staff was friendly. I did not meet the person who set up the appointment. I don't know why she was not there at the time she confirmed she would be, but the young man at the front desk was very flexible and took my husband and I around the facility. He was very friendly. It was OK. The rooms were OK; they were nice. I wouldn't rate them like above and beyond, but if that was a place I would have to put my mom at, it was OK. They seemed to be pretty standard in terms of amenities. There was an activity room and an exercise room.

My sister is in the Brookdale Brea. The staff is excellent, they're very caring and very attentive. The residents all love the staff, which I felt was a very good indication because they felt very safe and very well cared for. She is in assisted living, there are services available if you need them. There are caregivers if you need help with medications or assistance with showers and things like that. They have a great staff, so there are multiple levels of coverage that you could have there. Every single one of them can multitask, they know their residents, and they care for their residents. They're amazing, I was very glad I came and saw them. The food was incredible we ate there, and they have a wonderful chef. Their meals are all varied, they don't have the same thing all the time, they have a wonderful menu. They also have a beautiful dining room, and they just have a wonderful situation there. They have so many activities, I couldn't keep up with them. They have a salon, they have exercise classes every few days and they do a walking exercises. This place is not the highest-priced one, but you get what you pay for. She's been there almost a year, but I met residents that have been there 3 to 5 years and they love it there.

We visited Brookdale Brea. The facility was fantastic but it was very expensive. With the level of care that my mom needs, she wouldn't be using any of those accommodations; she's too sick. The staff that gave the tour (her name was Chrissie) was very professional and helpful with all of our questions. The layout was very modern. Overall, it's a very nice place.
