It has been great. The staff is kind and attentive to their residents. They're willing to sit down and talk to them. I've gone over to see my mom a few different times and if she happens to be in the atrium or in a place like that, they're just friendly and outgoing to her. So, it's nice that they have that communication with the residents. The rooms are like in a cruise ship. They have a one-bedroom, a two-bedroom, and a studio. Mom's got a studio and it's nice. They serve three meals a day, so you don't need a whole lot. The food was really good when I tried it. Of course, there's a dietician that takes care of their meals and so they have to be careful about what they eat and what stuff goes into it. It's all fresh and it's all prepared there. If you ask for a salad dressing, they're going to make the dressing in the back. It's not store-bought. The facility has a nice quality. It's a little charming place for my mom to be. It's not rundown. The residents are happy and they have like four activities every day. They have sing-alongs and music activities. They had a wine and cheese tasting one time when I was moving my mom in there. They take them shopping, to the grocery store once a week, and on outings. She's enjoying where she's at so far.

Washington Commons made an unauthorized withdrawal from bank account a few days after I gave the business manager a check for our final month’s rent They acknowledged the error but have not reimbursed the funds after more than a month. General Manager says she reached out to accounting and there’s nothing more to be done.

This place was not bad. I took a tour, but I did not have a meal. The rooms are small, bit not too small. The staff seemed very friendly, but I only met a few of them. They are pet friendly. I have 2 cats, so that is important. I liked the place. It was my second choice. I need assisted care, and I think they have it. Not sure how much assistance I can get, but they do make the bed every day, and pick up once a week.

We're moving my dad here. The staff was wonderful and very knowledgeable about what the seniors like and what they want. They offer a very safe environment for your loved one. The community was very, very clean. I got to visit the dining room and a meeting area or a common area, and I saw where their back outdoor area is. I also saw their activities room.

I looked at Washington Commons. I like the people that I talked to and the demonstration that they showed me. The rooms were nice. They had some activities that I might want to enjoy. It was a nice location; it was quiet and everything. The staff I've talked to and everybody I've seen and talked to was nice. I enjoyed talking to them. I saw the area where they eat, and it was big and spacious.

I liked the individual cottages at Washington Commons, but I also liked the ones that were inside the building as well. I liked the layout of the two-bedroom unit. I had an associate who was living there and it's just clean and nice outside. The atmosphere was so friendly and warm. I loved the daily schedule for the residents, and that they got the athletic rooms. I loved the setting behind the trees and the dining room. It's a beautiful place.

I liked the community of Washington Commons and its atmosphere. It was very clean and very welcoming. I went in during dinner and all the residents seemed to be down in the dining hall, enjoying themselves. The dining hall was very large and open. It was pretty. The rooms were very clean, very well designed, and very welcoming as well. The person who gave the tour was very knowledgeable. They have a whole bunch of different activities for the residents. They have something going on every couple of hours on their daily activities menu (which they gave me a copy of). I think they keep them pretty busy. There are lots of different choices throughout the day like games, coffee and chat, bingo, painting classes, poker, movie nights, Bridge class, crosswords, and all kinds of stuff.

We toured Washington Commons, and it's been great. The staff has been very helpful, and very friendly. We went in, took a tour, and they were just very nice, very informative. The dining area was very good.

I like the setup at Washington Commons. They had the dining room right there, and everyone came down to eat together. The staff was very cordial, professional, and knowledgeable of the facility and what amenities they had. She did her best, and she tried really hard. I appreciate her efforts. I like the place.

Washington Commons was good. The staff was a great help. I saw a 1-bedroom, and it was good. They showed me the dining area and the exercise room. There was a sitting area and little places where you can pot vegetables or flowers outside. With the Covid, they weren't really doing much dining, so I don't know what the food was like.

We really enjoyed our visit at Washington Commons. It's in a safe location and the resident all seem to enjoy living there. The residents have 3 meals a day and the rooms were very spacious. We like this community because it seemed bright and the residents all seemed to be fairly active. The residents also are allowed to come and go compared to other places in the area we looked at. We plan to move mom in end of month and we are very grateful for all the help we have received during this transition. Thank you Barbara, Matt, Michelle and all the staff.

My mother moved into Washington Commons. I really like it, and my mother really likes it. They serve three meals a day, and they're very timely with those meals because she's a diabetic and she has to eat her meals at certain times of the day. They have nice washers and dryers, they have a nice laundry room, it's clean, and there's no smell. The employees that work there are very friendly. The first day we moved her in the first thing they said to us was, "Make sure you wear your mask." They have a nice walk-in area too. They have a sidewalk that goes all the way around the building, and if you do one complete lap it's one mile. There's a lot of seniors that live there, the apartment she's in is not very big, but it's not very small. I like it.

Washington Commons is outstanding. It is an excellent community. The staff is wonderful. Matt was excellent. He even paired us with a resident ambassador. The whole experience was outstanding. We were very impressed by what they provide. We were looking for a one-bedroom apartment; it was lacking a little bit of closet space, but everything else looked wonderful. The place was very clean. The dining area was very nice, and it was like a restaurant with waiters.

I toured Washington Commons. It was really nice, the people seemed nice, there was a lot of activity in the evening, and the people were out taking to each other. The staff has been very nice, patient, and informative. The room had just been vacated, so it was not fixed up, but it was nice. The dining area was really nice and the food seemed OK. We looked at the menu.

Washington Commons was very nice, but they did not have a kitchen. They provide three meals a day, and the food was good. The staff was very nice, very polite, and very informed. They offered laundry, housekeeping, meals, and security. The facility was very pretty and very nice. The food was OK, not the best.

Washington Commons is a fabulous place with a tremendous activities schedule. My daughter ate there, and she said it's fabulous how they take care of their guests. I would rate the staff a 5. A place is a place, but a home is a home, and the staff is what makes it not just a place but a home. They have all the facilities as well.

Washington Commons would be a good place for my mom but not for my dad. The 2-bedroom unit was very nice and really big. The whole place was large. The person who contacted me and assisted me was super nice. There was a large and nice dining room, and they serve an appetizer, the main entree, and then the dessert. The place looked clean, and it would be a good place for a more independent living person.

I liked Washington Commons a lot. I was shown a small room where you could put a twin bed, a reclining chair, and a chest, and it had a balcony with a view of the garden. I also saw a one-bedroom apartment with a nice-sized bedroom, living area, and little kitchen. Every day, there were a lot of activities to do, and they had a bus that would take you shopping. The place was very active.

The person that we talked to at Washington Commons was extremely nice. It was a place that I would like to go. There was only 1 apartment with 2 bedrooms and a kitchen. The other rooms had a kitchenette with a sink and a microwave oven; that’s it. We are not allowed to use a stove, and that turned us off. But the place was very nice and very pleasant. We had lunch there, and the food was very good. I think they should have more apartments where the residents could cook.

It was very good, but my mother needs a little more care than what they can provide at Washington Commons. The staff was nice, very knowledgeable, and very professional. I had a very good tour of the place, but unfortunately it was just nothing that my mother would fit into. The dining area was very nice.

Washington Commons was a beautiful place but large. They had all kinds of activities every day, like bingo and outside activities. They served all three meals, had laundry services, and had somebody that did hair. They had somebody that came in to help them with their medical needs and transportation to places that you might need to go.

Washington Commons was excellent. We had a good visit. The lady that showed us around was charming and told us everything that we needed to know. Their apartments were wonderful, nice, and big. We visited one of the ladies there, and her apartment was very charming and as nice as could be. We really enjoyed our visit.

Everything is very nice at Washington Commons. They have their own chef, and the food is very good. They have tons of activities like bingo and exercise. I don’t know anything for them to improve on, but I would recommend them.

They didn't have a kitchen in Washington Commons. It's a nice place, but I like my own little stove and refrigerator. The staff did a good job. They tried to show me stuff that they had, but it's just not for me. You would go down to eat in their dining area. The rooms were really nice, and they had a very beautiful dining area. They had shopping, movie day, and museum day.

The staff of Washington Commons is absolutely wonderful. They do a really good job of taking care of the folks that live there. My dad has his own place, he can come and go as he pleases, and he has kind of a whole community of people. They also serve food three times a day. They offer a variety of activities. There is bingo as well card games going on, and they have outdoor games like once a month. They have something for the whole community to participate in. It is like a big family

I was very impressed with the décor and the spaciousness of the building at Washington Commons and also the people there seemed to be very active and enjoying themselves. It was mainly the location and the building seemed really nice. The people were very friendly as well. They have bingo, they also have get togethers and have cooking demonstrations. They have a lot of different activities. My mom doesn’t really like a lot of activities, but I'm glad that they offered them. She does go down to the dining room and meet her friends for lunch and dinner.

I went for a visit at Washington Commons and I was impressed with them. When I sell my house that's where I'm going. They have studio room and one bedroom. The staff are very nice. I was able to eat there a few times and the food was very good. I was impressed. They have bingo and card plays. They also go to places like the grocery store or to the doctor. I've talked to a lot of residents there and they were nice. They all seemed to like the place.
