We visited Arbor Terrace. It was a pretty good experience. The staff seemed to be very helpful. The rooms were attractive and pretty well thought out. The dining is fine, a little bit cramped, but aesthetically nice. It was set up in such a way that people share tables. The food was pretty good, and that's why they were above most of the other places, the quality was higher. They have tours, entertainment comes in, and they have occasional classes, and exercises. It's expensive, but I looked at a number of places in Northern Virginia, and this was the best that I found.

Arbor Terrace of Herndon is very nice and have individual washers and dryers in the apartments. They serve breakfast and dinner and have a chef, not just a cook. They have a bus that goes to doctors, lunches, and events, which are included in the base fee. The rooms are nice. They have an interesting design concept: it's all glass, which gives you a nice feeling. They have a table that fits in the room and individual heating and air conditioning. The staff is great.

The Arbor Terrace was very nice, but it was very small. I do not know if I want anything that small, but it is close to my son, and it is not expensive. They were putting in a new dining room and a new theater when I was there, and I assume it would be very nice when they get it done.
