What I like best about Brookhaven at Lexington is the apartments and the communal activities. My friend is very happy there and is very happy with the staff. I had dinner there and it was excellent. It's really an outstanding facility. They have everything in terms of activities. The reason why my friend chose Brookhaven at Lexington is because of its location. Also, it's highly recommended.

Brookhaven is a lovely community and the staff is wonderful. The administration is negligent though. The elevator nearest my mother's apartment has been broken for OVER A YEAR and the CEO of Brookhaven demonstrates a complete lack of urgency regarding this issue. If an elevator is left unrepaired for over a year, I have to wonder what other maintenance is being ignored. This saddens me because in most ways, this place has been great for my Mom but I don't think an 87 year old should have to climb up and d…

My Parents are searching for a living community to move into. This is a big move, filled with emotions and challenges. The experience with Brookhaven has been horrible for my parents. Here is why: 1) They do not return phone calls 2) They don't coordinate between their finance office and the sales office.

My visit at Brookhaven was very good. The staff was good, and a friend of mine used to live there. Their food was very good, the room was very nice, and they have a lot of events and things going on there. The whole thing was fine; I have no trouble with Brookhaven, only the money.

I liked the arrangement, but the arrangements are like being on a big ship. It's a long walk everywhere. My friends are in a cottage, which is nice, but I can't afford that, so it's irrelevant. I liked the physical layout. I found the arrangement to be interesting. The dining area and things like that.
