I toured Brookdale Southside. The apartments were well-maintained. The staff is very friendly. They have a beautiful activity room and they have a calendar of activities. They have a theater room, a craft room, and a library. There's a one-bedroom with a screened-in balcony. They had a full kitchen and a nice-sized living room. It had a washer and dryer in that room, and they have a nice-sized bathroom with a walk-in shower. The people there seemed very happy. In the dining room they have four-people tables. It was large, very light, and it's very clean.

I'm staying here at Brookdale Southside. The food is pretty good, but they are understaffed. They should improve their staffing. But for the most part, the staff here is friendly. We do all kinds of trivia, bingo, and travel. I have a studio room and it's just fine for me. They usually clean once a week, but that's when they lack staffing. If somebody calls in sick or it's a holiday, then you're out of luck.

I went to look at Brookdale Southside. I like the layout of the facility and the dining area. I was impressed with the rooms, the room size, and what you get for your money. It's a nice community. The apartments had a stackable washer and dryer. They have a kitchen with an oven that was available, too.

We toured Brookdale Southside. We did not care for that one. It felt more like a hospital. There wasn't a lot of staff, and we didn't see a lot of interaction going on. The staff who gave the tour were very helpful and very nice. The rooms were a good size and they had a very nice layout. It had that hospital feel. It was less like a community and more like a hospital.

Brookdale Southside's layout was a little better. The layout of the whole building itself with the ease of getting from one place to the next was pretty good. The staff were friendly. They were excellent interacting with the people. We didn't have any issues with any of the staff understanding my mother. Down in Miami, I visited some here, and there's a limitation with the language Spanish, but not up there, and so I was very pleased with that.

Brookdale Southside has a bright and cheerful attitude. It seems to have everything that one would need. The apartments are roomy, very nice, and very bright. It has a good atmosphere. The place is very clean. It is very, very good. Cleanliness is excellent. For activities, I think there were some paintings.

My parents will be moving into Brookdale Southside. Everyone was extremely friendly. The sales rep that helped me was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. She was very appeasing to do whatever she needs to do to make sure that everything will be comfortable for my parents, and I really appreciate that. That's what made me decide on that one. The apartments were very roomy. I looked at the two-bedroom villa. It was just exactly what they needed to make the transition easier, from coming from a home to a smaller facility. The square footage is just right. It was extremely clean. The grounds were beautiful. I think they're going to be very happy there. The dining area looked very nice. There were a lot of different activities going on when I got there. Some people were in the lounge area. I'm looking forward to going back over there within the next hour and a half to see all the different things they have to offer.

I am a resident of Brookdale Southside. I like everything, it's pretty good. The only problem I got is with the expenses. I enjoy all of the activities that they have. I'm in a poker group, which I enjoy, and bingo games and stuff like that. The food is average. My apartment is very nice. I got a 1-bedroom and it's very adequate, nicely arranged, and laid out. I got a balcony, and it's nice. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. The facilities are nice.
