Brookdale Mirage Inn

We visited Brookdale Mirage Inn, and everything was great. The tour and the consultation were great. The facility was immaculate. I was very impressed with the staff. They were knowledgeable and they knew what was going on. They were able to give me a hard dollar number of figures. They also gave me other options. Brookdale by far was the best place that I went to. After I went there, I had all the information I needed to decide for my loved one. I highly recommend Brookdale. Just from the appearance, it's clean, neat, and there's no odor. The seniors seem happy, friendly, and couldn't wait to welcome me and my husband. We are a senior couple, and they thought that we were moving in, and they were welcoming, nice, and pleasant. It was a nice experience. I love the fact that they have a movie theater. They had an open bar for happy hour. It was nice to see other seniors gather together to go down and eat together. It was a nice community, completely different than the other place that we went to. If we did have to make a choice, this would probably be one of the ones that are on top of the list. The staff was very friendly, very knowledgeable, and caring. That's one of the best words to describe it; very helpful with lots of information. I didn’t get to try the food, but I believe it was pretty good. When it was time to eat, there were a lot of people there eating. I have seen people taking stuff back to their rooms to have it later. They seemed very nice. They were talking and they were happy. It was always something going on there. They had a lot of activities, always something to each activity room. They had a movie theater, there were people watching movies. They had a bar, but it wasn't open; it wasn't happy hour yet. There were craft rooms, an exercise room, and a hair salon on the premises where they can get their hair and nails done. I just thought it was great, everything was right there. It made me think about my senior years, I was telling my husband, "Maybe this is not a bad option. Everything is right there. We don't have to clean; the laundry facility was there. They come and do your laundry. It was pretty nice."

I've chosen Brookdale Mirage Inn, and I'll be moving in probably after the Holidays. It has all of the amenities that I liked, plus the mix of residents was more compatible with my lifestyle. One of the things that I found to my liking is the fact that they do have all levels of care up to hospice. So, I don't have to worry about moving out if my condition deteriorates. The staff is very, very helpful and very informative. I was very, very impressed with the staff and the facility. I liked the building and the decor of the interior, it was warm and friendly. It didn't seem institutionalized, It had many interesting rooms set up for community use, which I found very pleasant. They had the card rooms, the craft rooms, and the entertainment area. They have a movie theater which is a large screen TV, but still, they do movies every day. They had a whole slew of amenities that were very nice. I looked at the menus, and they looked interesting. I liked that they can tailor the meals to any specific medical needs like I'm on a low-sodium diet, and they have that available which is a plus. They're high on the scale price-wise, but you get what you pay for.

We have moved into Brookdale Mirage Inn. We like it very much. They've been very nice. I have to say that I like it a lot. They've all been very, very nice, extremely polite, and willing to help with anything. The apartment is really cute. No matter what you ask them, they will do it for you. They've been extremely nice, and most of the people here are very nice and pretty active. I like the food, and I think it's delicious, but my husband doesn't share that same opinion. I'm big on salad and fruit. I have to say I have enjoyed the meals, and they are delicious. He's a little fussier and he doesn't think it's that great, but he eats everything on his plate. The public rooms are all very nice and kept well lit. They seem to have a very active social life here. We haven't really participated yet for reasons of our own, but they have something going, they have bingo, they have exercise, and they have discussions, and the library is open all the time. We're very independent, my husband just happens to have an anxiety disorder, so it's time to move. If there's nothing wrong with you, this is still a nice place. I did it for him, and I'm enjoying it. The staff is very nice and very helpful. They come in and they change your linens, they do your laundry, they clean your apartment, and they'll do it with a smile. They really try very hard to remember your names. It's a well-trained staff. I have enjoyed the food. You can order anything you want with the menu. You don't have to take what they are serving. You can have breakfast all day, you can have a salad whenever you want, you can have sandwiches, hamburgers, or whatever. They try their utmost to satisfy whatever you want, and I see different people are eating different things all the time. It's very nice. They could keep up the fountain in the gardens a little bit more, but the rest of the place, they're cleaning it all the time. The public restrooms are immaculate, and I ought to know because I use it a lot.

My mom is in Brookdale Mirage Inn. Where she is, they provide assistance to her and it's an ala carte kind of thing; depending on what level of care she needs. She is comfortable and she knows the people. They have a call button which is electronic and she wears it like a watch around her wrist, so if she needs assistance, she can just push that button. They come quickly and they are very good with her because she needs a great deal of assistance. I can't say anything negative about them. They offer 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom apartments, so you have your own place. She is in a 2-bedroom, 2-bath which is way too big and way too expensive. Before my father passed away, they were both here and even then, it was really too big. Now, we're looking at a 1-bedroom-1-bathroom for her. They have a pool, a movie theater, and a putting green. They have a restaurant and they offer meals in your apartment as well if you can't get to the restaurant. They also have a computer and a library. A lot of the amenities aren't open right now because of Covid, but they have a craft room and they have exercise classes.

My friend was a resident at this community and loved it. Rather upscale with pool, theater and even a cabaret. On cooler days he loved the 9 hole putting green.

Brookdale Mirage Inn was my first choice. It felt warm when you walked in. The person showed me around seemed fine and the residents there seemed happy.

I chose Brookdale Mirage Inn because the price was right. It was beautiful and still is. It has a majestic look. I've seen all Brookdales and this one is the best, without a doubt. It's a caring, close-knit group. My only complaint is the food is not so terrific. Sometimes it's wonderful, sometimes it's awful. It's not prepared well, but it's not bad food. We have a bus that takes us anywhere we want to go. It's not a bad life, in general. We have loads of activities here. There's lots for everybody if you're interested.
