We're hoping to get my sister in Brookdale Mandarin. They could improve in being more responsive to questions. We're going back and forth on whether or not they'll take her secondary Medicaid insurance to help her pay for room and board. The staff at the location is saying one thing, and the insurance provider is saying another. So it's just really their knowledge of which insurances they can accept and which ones they cannot. The tour experience was perfectly fine.

I liked Brookdale Mandarin Assisted Living. It was clean and it looked like a four-story hotel. They had lots of activities and lots of staff members. The apartments looked nice. The staff member during the tour was knowledgeable and friendly. They have a swimming pool, they do your laundry, they offer three meals, and have snacks available throughout the day.

I was very impressed. It's a brand-new, lovely community. Amenities are pretty much what everybody else has. They do laundry and linen, provide food, but the rooms aren't quite as big. Also I wanted to be close to Mayo Clinic and Hospital because I have been told by the doctor that I have a type of cancer. However, it is much further away in comparison to the other communities.
