"My brother has been in Brookdale Kenmore for a week and a half now. From the onset, when I visited and walked in, I was a little intimidated because it's an urban-like situation, and when you walk in the front door, it's a little bit congested, and I wasn't prepared to like it. But both my brother and I, after being there for less than 10 minutes, absolutely loved the place. It is so conducive to a non-institutional living experience. It almost feels like you're living in a hotel or an apartment building. The people are absolutely friendly and outreaching. The facilities are great. There are opportunities for all sorts of connectedness to the community. There are events, clubs and cards, and whatever. My brother's apartment is a one-bedroom apartment, which is wonderful. Compared to a lot of other facilities, this one has its own heating-air conditioning control, its little kitchenette with a microwave, and all the accommodations you would expect, like a walk-in shower. My brother has been impressed with the food service, and I know every place tells you 'the food is great, and the food is great,' but he can't believe how wonderful the food is here. He loves it. It has a beautiful courtyard, an activity room, and a large-screen TV. It has been a wonderful experience. They have a couple of two-bedrooms and mostly one-bedrooms. Then they have suites which are a large living spaces with a bathroom, but your bed and your TV and everything is kind of in the same area. It's the accommodation that my brother left, and he wasn't unhappy with it, but the price of the one-bedroom here was the same as the suite that he left. It is unlike the rural accommodations that he had where he looked out the window and saw deer and pheasants. But it also offers him the opportunity to get out into a very walkable community with a restaurant across the street, and there are stores and things. He has the capability of getting out and being a part of the larger community as well. I was impressed with how down-to-earth and accommodating everybody was, including the CEO. I don't have any concerns at this point. They're wonderful. I've been most impressed with everybody. The only negative is because it's four floors stacked one on the other, my brother has to use the elevator, and he certainly can do that. That would be the only negative and it has an elevator, but that doesn't seem to be a problem. It's more of a problem for me because I'm impatient and I don't like to wait for it. The facilities are beautiful. The activities look wonderful. "
