    I did a tour of this facility for a family member and the facility is warm and spacious. The inviting lobby features charming touches like a parakeet aviary and well maintained fish tank. Very friendly and inviting and i am strongly considering it as we are assessing facilities. The staff is dedicated and attentive. The residents genuinely seem happy and the facility is within walking distance to local dining, nearby parks and trail systems. The neighborhood has a welcoming vibe. Very pleased with this place!

    Brookdale Uptown Whittier has high quality cleanliness, quality of care and management team. I have a loved one there for the past 3 months and they are doing so well. Highly recommended!

    The building is completely infested with roaches, and there's only one working elevator, which sounds like it's on its way out. The caregivers are nice, but the infestation and the building's disrepair is totally unacceptable given how much they're charging residents. California Department of Social Services has inspected them several times for these issues and given management warnings. If you have the option to move your loved ones somewhere else, do it.

    My family member resides at Uptown Brookdale and at first the facility ran well but over the last few months the food quality served is unacceptable, they will serve cold food and combinations on the menu Spaghetti with beans? My family member has been battling cancer so she pays extra to have her dog walked but staff rarely comes to take dog out which has caused her dog to relieve herself on carpet and floors. Now the apartment smells bad and the apartment is infested with roaches. The manager has been notified yet nothing is done to resolve the issue. For the amount of money that the residents pay this is just unacceptable. I wouldn't recommend this facility at all.
