This is one of the first - if not the first - Sunrise ever built. Therefore, rooms are a bit smaller than newer homes. But this is also a part of the charm in that it is smaller. At 92 mom would get lost in the long corridors of many I have seen. She is a modest woman with whom she relates to many of the simpler amenities. She can walk out of her space and into the thick of things. Staff and Caregivers are very nice and happy. The place is very clean and the food is great. What more can one ask.... Thx

My mother stayed at Sunrise of Arlington for respite care. Overall, it was good, and she actually liked it there, but how they price the levels of care was very murky. They weren’t able to communicate that, and that was the negative for me. Her room was good, nothing fancy, but initially she had to share a bathroom with someone. We had to move her to a different room because of her roommate, but other than that it was good, and the people were very caring. They had activities.

Sunrise of Arlington, VA was a nice place but very small. Though it had a homey environment, I would have wanted something bigger with more people. The staff was very nice.

Sunrise of Arlington is absolutely charming and looks like an old Victorian house. It's wonderful that for those who prefer to walk, you're always visible if you're on the stairs, which is tremendous safety. There are five rooms off of a little sitting room with a sofa, TV and a computer that you can use if you don't have your own. The location is perfect because it's about 10 minutes from my house. My dad likes to walk all the time, and this is a good place for him since it is right in the middle of Arlington. There's a kitchen sink and a place to store food, but there's no source of heat in the individual rooms for safety reasons. There's not a lot of turnaround in staff.

I liked who I met with at Sunrise of Arlington VA, and we had a nice chat. She's very welcoming, and the staff was very friendly. I liked it. The location just wasn't as convenient as we thought it would be, but it's a nice place. They had a TV area, and they had scheduled activities like Bingo and other kinds of activities that they could meet for. They had day trips to places, and they have a whole calendar with a list of events. I believe they had all 3 meals, and they're set up restaurant style. The staff was friendly and approachable. I think they have a doctor who goes there to see them.

Sunrise of Arlington was remote, and I liked one to be in the middle of urban setting. They have a good philosophy about making things interesting and focusing on the development of a person.

We visited Sunrise of Arlington and really liked the community. It was an older mansion-type setting, but my mother-in-law was from New York City, and we weren’t sure whether that would be a little too old fashioned for her. However, the facility was very nice. It was very clean, and the people were very nice. The rooms were nice, and we really liked it a lot. The saleslady was very helpful and answered all of our questions. The director called us later as well. It was a really nice experience. They had lots of activities, which was nice because my mother-in-law liked to be active, that included music and card games. They had whole boards full of different things that were going on all day. There was very limited parking, but other than that, it seemed like a nice facility, and the people we met seemed to really care and be nice. It was an older community, but it seemed to be kept up well.

Sunrise of Arlington, VA is assisted living. It was very nice, clean, and the food looked like it was good and smelled good. They had a good menu selection. The dining area was very nice, like a restaurant. They had a lot of activities. The staff was friendly. It was a cozy country type bed and breakfast with a nice a little outside porch. The rooms were very nice, like little hotel rooms, and they were clean.

Sunrise of Arlington was nice, clean, and in a good location. The staff seemed friendly and knowledgeable.

Our visit at Sunrise of Arlington was nice. They had activities like going on trips out in the city, which I thought was nice. I saw the dining area, which was nice but not nicer than the other one I visited. The food was good but not as good as the other one I visited.

Sunrise of Arlington is awesome, and we are very pleased. Some of the nicest people we could have. I had lunch and I talked to the residents, I felt like the residents were pretty happy with it. They are engaged with me, and I appreciated that. The food was certainly as good as any place else that I ate; it was like fish, rice, and vegetables. There’s a wraparound porch, and the residents use it; whenever I’m there, there’s always people out on the porch. It is summer, so they are taking advantage of the outdoors, there’s trees around, and I like that a lot. It’s a small facility, it has a little bit of an intimate feel, and it seems like the people who are there. They are very engaged because when I have been there, there has been quite a few visitors and family members who are visiting there folks; it kind of mixes up the people who are actually at the facility. They take them to movies and out to lunch. The people who are there actually put them together. My father-in-law is Jewish, we asked them if they could do a service, and they said that they could look into that. They are willing to accommodate the interests of the people at the community. It was a little more integrated into a cosmopolitan area. The executive director, marketing director and the head nurse were really smart and caring. They had a very strong policy on bedbugs, and one of the things I learned is that bedbugs are actually very common in the nursing homes and a lot of people don’t know how to deal with it. They trained their people every time they changed the linens, and they bring in dogs usually once a year to sniff the facilities.

Sunrise of Arlington is a good environment, and my mother has been raving about the food.

The place that I found for my sister is Sunrise of Arlington. The experience so far is very positive. They're home-like. The staff's work attitude is excellent. We chose this facility because it is a small facility, and the environment is like a large home. They have a very good activity program. They also have good health care program. The food is very good. There is a variety of menu. There are three meals per day. They are served in a formal dining room with tables for four residents to sit together. It is very pleasant. Sunrise of Arlington is recommended by a client's relative, and when I looked into it myself, I was positively impressed, and I'm happy with it thus far.

Sunrise of Arlington has a home atmosphere, and the residents were interacting there as we’ve got to observe some of that. It was ideal for the circumstance we had for this particular patient. The staff was caring, and people were going down for lunch.

My husband had respite care at Sunrise of Arlington VA twice. It was a very loving place. It is a beautiful home, not very big and has this wrapped around porch and all of these rocking chairs and all of these activities. It does not feel at all like an institution.
