Discovery Village Chevy Chase

We visited. I think the people there were very pleasant to interact with. The food was actually better than the place we ended up going. One factor is that they were rental-based, where you paid monthly, whereas the place we wound up going was a condo. This is very subjective, but we like the idea of being able to alter the interior so it's really nice and new inside. The lady that we talked to was extremely good, very straightforward, and had a lot of information. She's very impressive to talk to. I would say the one negative thing about it is that they really didn't have a very good place to walk outside. It was right on Connecticut Avenue, which is extremely busy. It was like being right on a very busy highway, so that was the thing that really was a deciding factor for us.

I liked it a lot and if they're still in business in a couple of years, I think that's where I would end up. The lady who gave the tour was lovely. They had everything anybody could ever want and they all seemed in good shape. Everything seemed lovely. I saw the gym, the swimming pool, and the exercise facilities. I saw the rooms where they had functions, the card room, and the library. I pretty much saw everything.

I went here. I liked the way they introduced you to the place. I was met at lunch by two of the residents, one was 75 and one was 86, they talked about how they liked the place. The food that one time was very good, and they did have a menu to choose from, it wasn't just brought to me. I saw the rooms, the place was small versus something I can afford, but overall the ambiance of the place was very nice, and the people were very nice, friendly, and that's a good impression on me. It's not new, but the updated rooms I saw were fine.

My impression was very nice. They offer two meals, we had lunch there, and it was a very lovely tour. We liked all the amenities. They have 2-bedrooms with a living room and 2 bathrooms, some of them have a balcony and some do not. All the people we met were nice, and everything was good.

My first impression is very good. There is a huge lobby, a dining facility right next to it, and there's a couple of game rooms. The place is decorated very nicely. The person who assisted me was very good. The dining area looked like a nice restaurant. The food was very good. They have a library, they have religious services, and they have a bus that goes to the mall.

My mother is in here. It’s absolutely the nicest retirement community I’ve ever seen. They cater to everyone’s needs. It is very nice. People are very friendly. I enjoyed it quite a bit. My mom has been there since June. The room is gorgeous. It overlooks the golf course, and the country club. They’re all very invested in the community. They have quality programs with a lot of guest speakers. The residents themselves are extraordinary people. They’re all well-educated.
