I am/was a resident of this facility

Balfour Riverfront Park offers memory care, assisted, and independent living. I'm in their independent living section. The number one thing that I like here is the community. We're from all over the country, mostly because our children or some relatives live out here in Denver. Denver is beautiful and has beautiful weather. I like the staff because they're very caring. I even wonder if Human Resources, before they hire somebody, asks if they love their grandma because they are very patient. The staff like each other, we like them, and they like us. It has nothing to do with the actual physical building and what it offers. It's really the community. There are so many activities here. I was just doing water aerobics this morning. The food is good, and they're always open to suggestions. They accept recipes that people offer and work with them. The security is good, too. Several times a week, they have transportation out somewhere, like to a museum, shopping, and all kinds of places. If you wanna go specifically for a doctor's appointment, they'll take you. There are several drivers, and they would take you within a 15-mile radius. This place is very posh and very classy. There are even fresh flowers on the dining tables. I get what I pay for, and I pay a lot. They discourage seniors from driving, so to park in the garage here, it's $400 a month. However, they have a driving service within 15 miles, and we're right downtown and just three blocks from Union Station. For two years before I moved here, I lived downtown and learned how to ride public transportation everywhere, so I am happy here.

I visited this facility

My visit at Balfour was very positive. The location appealed to us because it was in the heart of Denver, so that was the reason we chose this community. It has a friendly atmosphere and there are outside activities that we could go to. We like the park because we have a dog and there's a coffee shop around the corner.
