Review for Brookdale Glen Ellyn

I would rate them 5 stars for what they offer for independent living. This a more minimal amenities facility. The staff is willing to work with you for a great living experience. I live in a large 1 bedroom apartment that's 850 sq. ft. Great room.

Warm, caring place!

When I first started looking for myself, I loved the feeling of the community. I’ve now lived here for 8 months and I’m more impressed each day. It has such a warm feeling, the staff is kind and responsive. When I had a health concern, the dining director sat down with me so I knew exactly what I could eat for the week ahead.

Senior Living Perfection

I moved my mom into Brookdale in June. The whole experience has been easy, professional, friendly, and amazing. The facility is immaculate and has basically everything that you could imagine to make life interesting and fun at a senior-living facility. There are tons of activities every day and there is a daily bus for shopping at some of the local stores like Kohls, Target, Jewel and Walmart. There are medical professionals who come on site weekly and monthly. And the food is really really good. Like, unexpectedly…

Brookdale Glen Ellyn was definitely the place for me.

My daughter did research at different places for me. We chose this location because it was by far the best and being here for three years, it is still the most amazing. The staff is the most incredible and inspirational people who show us kindness, compassion and caring everyday. Our cleaning staff are the most dedicated and keep the building spotless. The servers are patient, friendly and easy to communicate. The menu/food has many varieties and flavors which is always good to the taste. Our specialty cooks b…
