Seabury at Friendship Terrace

Seabury at Friendship Terrace was a nice-sized community. The location was perfect for me. It's very close to the Metro and buses. My friends could get here without a problem. There was enough parking for cars. It would be close to my book club, my sewing group, and other activities that I do, so the location was very key. The room size was fine. It's a place that provides dinner, so the kitchens were very small, and that suited me just fine. I can take care of my breakfast and lunch. The idea of having a community to sit down with was appealing. The apartments were sunny. The bathrooms were large enough. I really liked the walk-in showers. I didn't have to climb over a tub. They had formed a singing group. They had a library, a community room, and enough green space outside. They were allowing cats and dogs. It was quiet. Everything was a fit for me. The price was lower than one would expect, which was a big deal. The staff members were great, very friendly, and informative. The facility was immaculate.

I went to Seabury at Friendship Terrace. They were very friendly. I got the information about them from my coworkers and at the church. It was very highly recommended and so I went there. The staff was friendly. Everybody was very eager to help me out. They showed me all the places. I liked the room that they showed me. Unfortunately, I could not make it because I was 61 at that time. I'm not 62, but I loved the place. It had a lot of senior activities. They told me that once I'm 62, which is going to be September, I can apply. I liked the fact that they had spiritual meetings and activities and they had activities that I could join like exercise. It's near the metro, and it was clean, very comfy, and very homey, especially the living room.

The Seabury at Friendship Terrace was a nice facility but they just had an efficiency available when we visited. They didn't have a lot of 1-bedroom apartment units there. Everything looks really good though and the people were very friendly, even the residents were very friendly. It was just a little too small for my father's living conditions so everything he has wouldn't possibly fit in there. Everybody was just very welcoming, very warm, and the community has a welcoming atmosphere. That was nice but it wouldn't be a good fit for him. The one-room that we visited was very clean and very neat. It was very organized and nice. They had a list of the type of activities that they had and they showed us an activity room where they have different things in. I think they were just really getting back to doing more activities because of the pandemic. They just really got back into the swing of things, but we didn't see anybody actively engaged in any activity. They had sent me something in the mail and I saw what the menu looked like from that. It looked like it was a good, nutritious, planned diet that they have for the residents but we didn't get to taste anything.

Seabury at Friendship Terrace takes good care of its residents, including my mother. This retirement home was one of the first communities in the DC area to have an onsite clinic for the covid vaccine (2nd week of January, 2021). And by March, 90% of residents and staff were fully vaccinated. This must have taken great foresight and planning. Staff members are helpful and friendly. Thank you, Friendship Terrace Retirement Community!

The rooms are small. The staff is friendly but overwhelmed and ineffectual. The activities advertised are not what you actually get. There was supposed to be regular bus service to the store, but if not enough people show up they just cancel leaving residents without an option. There have been two bedbug infestations and other problems. The management says it will talk to you, but then they never follow through. Very disappointing. Also prices keep going up while services seem to be going down.
