Brookdale Niskayuna is located in an area where there are some shops. It's a very pretty area where it's located. You walk in and it's very welcoming. The tour was terrific. I was taken around with the assistant director to the different areas. It was a good time to go at 11:00 because they were getting ready for the first lunch, so I was able to walk through the different areas of the community. The colors are very upbeat, very inviting, and comfortable to walk through. The eating areas are very homey, and it's like a dining room experience. Other parts have activity rooms where people can go and play board games or arts and crafts. I met several of the people who lived there, and they were sitting and just chatting. It's very relaxing, very warm, and nice. I saw two of the types of rooms available. They have a little kitchenette. What it is is a microwave, a sink and a small refrigerator. No toaster oven allowed and nothing like that, but you can have meals delivered to your room if you choose to. All the meals are included. I loved it right away. They said if Mom just wants to come and have lunch, she's more than welcome. She can come with me or one of my other sisters, just to let them know. They were great. It was great. The people that lived there were just very friendly. It was good. The staff who assisted me was great.

I had a good tour experience at Brookdale Niskayuna. It had small grounds around it, but the building itself was very nice, warm, and friendly. It had access to the outdoors. You could go outside and sit in covered areas or walk around in the garden area. It had a very homey atmosphere, friendly staff that I spoke with, and very adequate facilities for our needs. I saw an efficiency room that would be adequate for my husband. It had a nice large bathroom area to get a wheelchair into. And the room itself was adequate for him to move around in a wheelchair. It had windows and they said we could put bird feeders on the window, so he will be able to continue watching birds and feeding them, which was a nice surprise. The two staff members that I met were very friendly, very competent in their knowledge, and they were able to answer questions quite readily.

Everyone, from the Director, Sales Manager, Nurses, Aids, Therapists, Receptionists, Kitchen Staff, Maintenance and Cleaning Staff were very kind, caring, accommodating, went above and beyond and always with a smile! Both my brother and myself felt very comfortable with the homey, friendly atmosphere at Brookdale and would highly recommend it for a loved one!

My brother-in-law's room at Brookdale Niskayuna was nice and of decent size. They cooked for him, cleaned for him, and helped him with showers. The safety of the residents was utmost. There were railings all over and elevators. There's a nice social area, and he enjoyed the company. The food was pretty good. The place had a nice ambience. It was nicely decorated, and it was kind of like a hotel. It was clean, well-appointed, and decorated very nicely. When you walk in, it didn't smell medicinal. They were careful about who they let in or if we wanted to take him out, that kind of thing. They had bingo and different activities.

I toured Brookdale Niskayuna and met Pam (the person who took me around) and Lisa (the receptionist) and they were both so friendly and so welcoming. As far as the place itself, I thought it was cozy. I liked the fact that the dining room had enough space. I liked that they were refurbishing with new furniture. The places where they go and chat and watch TV were just very, very bright. I liked having all those windows and there was nothing dingy about it. I liked the fact that the main room where they would do their bingo and happy hour on Fridays or any of those other things was not so large for an elderly person to get lost. We had lunch and it was delicious. We met the nurse as well and she asked questions to my aunt and was just so sweet. I also liked the apartments, but the bathrooms were small. The sink was just a sink. My aunt likes to put things out on the ledge, but there's no place to do that.

My mother is now at Brookdale Niskayuna. The community is beautiful, and they offer a lot. It's a lovely place and they offer varied activities for the residents, which I hope my mother will soon be able to participate in. The staff are wonderful. The room is very nice. She's in a studio apartment, and it's lovely. My mother's experience with dining there is pretty good. They have chair exercises, they have bingo, they have crafts, and they have trips to Walmart and Dollar Store. There are various things. They have a lot of activities.
