Brookdale North Loveland

4.6
I would tell others that the staff here really bonds with the residents, always going the extra mile for them. I would say that the staff majors in caring. The facility offers 3 different sizes of rooms depending on what you may need. The cable is available, but not much else.

Brookdale Fort Collins Assisted Living

4.5
The pharmacy costs that weren't explained to us. The activities have been much less than what was explained to us. I have tried to help with activities but the people in that department are rarely in their office. You have a great staff and the facility is very nice.

Brookdale Mariana Butte in Loveland, CO

4.9
Our experience has been wonderful. The staff is friendly and very helpful. They took the extra time to make sure my mom adjusted from independent living to assisted. The staff always contacts me if they have any concerns about my moms health .
