I felt Brookdale Valparaiso was adequate and would have been my second choice. The apartments were small. The person we met was friendly and helpful.

Brookdale Valparaiso has all kinds of various activities to help people with their memory skills, they have singing and baking, and they visit various local sites like stores, churches and local museums. My mom has been there for 5 years, and we're happy with it. The food is fine, and they have a variety like chicken, beef, fish, various vegetables, and dessert. It's not a 5-star restaurant, but it's very good.

Brookdale Valparaiso was great and seemed really nice and relaxing. If I were to go some place, this is where I want to go. We like it a lot for our cousin. They have a side that is more for people having issues with memory, which is what I would choose for my cousin.

The apartments at Brookdale Valparaiso were nice. It helped mom have her own space. She’s always wanted to be on her own. Food was touch and go. Some days it was good, but the food I ate was great. Mom has some food allergies, and they were very good at not giving her those specific food. The care at this facility is phenomenal. They were absolutely perfect with my mom. I could not ask for better people to watch over her.

I visited Brookdale Valparaiso, and I liked it very well, but the price was just out of my range. They were very nice, and the rooms were very clean. They had a lot of open spaces for play time or gatherings. They individual rooms were small, but I did not see any problem with that, because when you were feeling down, you did not really need a large room to lay in; and when you were up, you could be out of your room and socialize more. There were a lot of opportunities to socialize there. They had exercise classes where they do chair exercise. There were a number of living room areas that were available. I never tried the food, but I did look at the menu, and it seemed like it was good food.

I chose Brookdale Valparaiso because it is small. The facility is OK. The dining room is bright. It looks clean. The staff has been very good. So far, I like them. The rooms are pretty small.

I went out and checked Brookdale Valparaiso. It was very nice. It was just out of my mom's price range. I was impressed with just about everything that I saw. The rooms were very nice. The dining area was nice. Their activities -- they had everything posted, plus they had it in each resident's room so they would know what activities were going on. The staff was very nice and helpful. They had breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I was told they could have snacks if they wanted them, or they could have some in their rooms if they wanted that.
It was very clean. I thought everyone that I talked to that was in charge and the other staff were very knowledgeable and very caring about their job and the residents there.

We really like this Sterling House the best. It was well-maintained and very clean. We were first met by a sales director, and she was very nice, very knowledgeable and very caring. The facility was newer and the residents there were more of the age of my mother-in-law. I think she would have fit in just fine there. The room was clean and everything was very accessible.

Sterling House in Valparaiso, Indiana, is a wonderful place. I volunteered there for for about 6 months. The facility itself is very clean, and doesn't have that musty smell like most assisted living homes. I also noticed that the staff was extremely friendly and treated the residents with respect and kindness. They have a variety of programs and activities for the residents to participate in, from bingo night, to outings on the town. The rooms are very nice and the food was pretty good. Most of the residents I talked to seemed happy with their treatment at the facility. Overall I would give Sterling House a 4 out of 5 stars.
