Not a great place or luxury place but very convenience, great location close to everything schools, shopping centers, trolley. Apartments are big, only one bedroom for two people. The manager is a very responsible person and like any other human, she tries very hard to keep up with everybody in the complex. Nice place to live.
Dear Canterbury Court Staff, Thank you so much for making Canterbury a wonderful place for my husband and I to call home we truly love it here. Staff is always helpful and friendly. We love living here! We appreciate everything . Thank you again.
My mom was here when it was still Brookdale. Staff was friendly and helpful. When someone first enters it would be nice if they had more "greeters" to make that transition easier. My mom was not able to get up on her own so having someone check on her would have been helpful. They were suppose to be checking but maybe documentation by the door would help for accountability. Overall staff was very kind.
