Brookdale Desert Ridge was fine. It was very middle of the road. It seemed to be depressing. It was stark. There was no view. It was clean. The shower was not amenable to somebody in memory care. The person who accommodated me was very nice. She was very good. The dining area was very mediocre. It was not inspiring and not welcoming. It was just OK. Some residents were watching a movie, and some were involved in a memory game.

My mother-in-law is currently at Brookdale Desert Ridge. It is very homey and warm. You just get a good feeling when you walk in the door. Her apartment is acceptable, and it's just enough for her. She has a living room and a small galley with a refrigerator, a microwave, a sink, and some cupboards. The staff is very good and they're very attentive to her. They're a little bit shorthanded right now, but everybody's shorthanded. They go to Walmart and Fry's. They have nickel bingo, blackjack, movies, and ice cream socials. They had a luau a couple of months ago and they had a senior prom last month. For the meals, they offer 3 entrees, a salad, and a dessert.

I went to Brookdale Desert Ridge. It was a nice but an older facility. The room was a nice, big room for one bedroom. The only complaint I had was there was a bit of a lift on the shower that could cause problems trying to step over. It did have nice, wide doors that would accommodate my wife's wheelchair. The staff, Allison, was very nice. I have not tasted their food, but the dining area was okay. They have a place to watch movies. They have some card tables, game tables, a place to do puzzles, and things like that.

Brookdale Desert Ridge was very pretty. They had a gym, a hair and nail salon, games, live music, and a very nice dining area. The only thing was it didn't seem like there was a whole lot of activity among the residents. They all pretty much kept to themselves, and we wanted a more outgoing atmosphere. Also, the outdoor sitting area wasn't really as nice as the other one we visited. Other than that, the cleanliness was very nice. The staff was very patient with us and explained everything in detail.

I liked Brookdale Desert Ridge. The people were very, very nice. It was housecleaning day, so they were all actively cleaning and helping people. They were also making jewelry in the activity room. The studio that we saw had a good layout. There's a theater room and a library. It was a clean place. They just didn't have balconies.

Brookdale Desert Ridge was very nice. I liked it very much. It's a smaller place. It's very nice and very welcoming. It has a theater room, exercise room, and a nice dining area. They had very friendly and very welcoming people. The lady that I met with (the director) was excellent. She's very kind and very engaging. She wanted to make sure she answers all your questions and shows you everything about the facility. You could tell how clean these places are by how they smelled, and this smelled excellent. It's in a very nice part of town and it's very easy to get to. There are quite a few places to go shopping or that sort of thing. So, it's very well located.
