We toured the Brookdale Guadalupe River Plaza. We spent an hour or so there, and it was great. We loved it, but our trouble is we can't sell my mother-in-law on it. They were very professional, gave us options, and showed us what was available. We had a good experience with them. It was an in-person tour, and the person that showed us around was very good. She knew her stuff. It was very professionally laid out and set up well. The bathrooms were nice, even for a handicap person.

Brookdale Guadalupe River Plaza's staff just didn't seem as friendly and didn't seem very personal to me. I didn't like my gut feeling so I didn't choose them.

Brookdale Guadalupe River Plaza was very excellent. The staff was very nice and very informative. They showed us around the different rooms that they have, and showed us the cafeteria. We walked through the whole building basically. We were there probably an hour or more. It's not far from where we live. They have all kinds of activities, and they take the residents to different places to eat and to Wal-Mart. They have all kinds of activities there in the home also every day. They keep everybody busy.

I will move into Brookdale on the 29th of this month. Everything looked just fine; it was in Kerrville, and I didn’t want to go to San Antonio. I got a 1-bedroom apartment with a bathroom and kitchen facility.

Emeritus at Plaza on the River was a lovely place, and the people were very nice. I knew a lot of them, but it wasn't what I needed. The staff was great. The rooms were small, but they seemed to be efficient for the residents. They seemed to have them arranged so they were okay. They were happy with them. The facility was close, which was handy. It seemed like it was nice and clean, and the people seemed very friendly. They had a bus that took the residents to different places. I would definitely recommend it if people can afford it.

I like everything about Emeritus. The smells were good. There was nothing upsetting about the odor. Their apartments were a little bit small though. Outside of that, the people were lovely. Everybody was very pleasant. All the people sitting around looked very happy. The director who showed us around was very pleasant and very accommodating.

We toured this facility, it was clean and seemed well operated. Not much parking space. The biggest thing in looking at any new facility is do your home work.
Know how your going to pay for the independent living in 5 years or to the end of living.
You will be giving up storage space, know what you will be getting rid of.
Make the move with the idea you will not have a second choice
Life will be simpler in the independent living facility, keep that in mind.
Get rid of things before you go into a new life
This is a fresh start and the old life is just a memory.

Plaza on the River is a very good facility. The amenities are great. The rooms are basically small apartments, most with porches and access to the outside. The grounds are immaculately kept and there is always plenty of activities to keep the residents busy. They can keep their own vehicle at the facility if they wish and if they do not have a vehicle there are weekly grocery store trips and trips to the hair salon. The meals served to the residents are very good. I ate there several times with my grandmother and was always impressed with the meals. The staff are friendly and attentive. My family was on a first name basis with several of the staff. Any time there was a health issue or concern about my grandmother, the staff would call us right away.

Moving to Brookdale Guadalupe River Plaza has been an excellent experience for my mother; she's settling in really well. Even with the COVID-19 restrictions, she's been able to do the social distancing but socialize and meet people. She's really happy and it's been a wonderful experience for all of us. They're doing some limited activities and they're doing Mexican train dominoes and they're doing some other exercise activities. They're still being fed in their rooms, but those in the independent living are still able to get out and walk around the property. She's waiting for the dining room to open back up at some point. She has a beautiful little apartment, she has basically a full kitchen, and it's perfect for her. The meals are way more than she can eat so she skips one meal a day and just has leftovers from her other meals; she is able to just heat her meals. It's the perfect setup for her and she has plenty of room. Because of the restrictions, there was only one of us allowed to tour the place with her. I have been in her room and down the hallway, and I was able to see the dining room through the windows.

My dad in an apartment at Brookdale Guadalupe River Plaza. The place is excellent. He has a private care nurse. He is very happy there and does not have any complaints about the food.

I personally didn’t enjoy my stay at Brookdale Guadalupe River Plaza because I don't like other people taking care of me. The staff members I dealt with were lovely and I found no flaws with them. I was not happy with my room because of the section that I was in, but the rooms in the other section were lovely. They didn’t have enough staff to assist me when I wanted to take a shower every day. Most of the staff there were really good. The food was excellent and I looked forward to every meal.
