Our Experience

My sister was previously a resident at The Broadmoor and her experience at this facility was great. The staff and residents were kind, friendly and helpful. The meals were of good quality. The move in and out processes were easy. We have recommended The Broadmoor to others.

The Broadmoor is a converted hotel that is in an old building. The location is very nice, but the rooms were grim.

My review of The Broadmoor

I rate them a five on everything except friendliness. On that they get a ten!!!!! My loved one's circumstances were such she was there a little more than two months. It was an interim stop between acute care and home. They knew that. She was sort of a grump, but everyone treated her well--staff and residents. I am grateful to The Broadmoor for my loved one's positive experience.

The Broadmoor was a very good place. We were met by a gentleman who runs the office and he gave us a little talk about it. Then he took us around and showed us the garden area and patio area. It's a very busy area of town. There were streets on both sides of the building. It's rather busy but it's a good location for transportation and getting around San Francisco.

The Broadmoor or BUST!

The Broadmoor is probably THE best place you can go. yes, there are other places out there, but what they have to offer - even the staff are alone, it's worth being here. the staff care about every single person, and they show that through their words and actions. there are so many activities and things to do, I can hardly find the time to sit down! when I lived in my old apartment alone, I really didn't do much; I would often sit at home all day. just this week alone, I've spent four days on different outings. if …

I visited this facility

I went to The Broadmoor on Tuesday, the independent living place downtown at 1499 Sutter. The people were very nice. I finally got a hold of someone to make sure I could go in so I went down and went in. The property is older. It reminded me of my first apartment down in downtown San Francisco. They were nice though. They gave me soup and a sandwich for lunch. The property is older. The public area, the lobby, and the dining room area were pretty nice. The rooms are older and a little darker due to how the lighting…
