I live in a villa in Somerby of Mobile. It's a very nice place, they have houses with the villas, and those are privately owned, then they have a big building, they have independent living and people who need a little bit extra, and they have a facility where they take care of people. They have great food, you pay for your meals when the meals are included in your rent. The staff is mostly very, very young, and they are quite capable, they do lots of different things. They provide housekeeping weekly, someone comes to your place, or your apartment, and they're there for an hour and a half and they clean, and they do beds which is very helpful. I have my sheets changed weekly and it's very nice. In the past, they've had a lot of trips and that's come to a halt during the COVID thing. I think they're going to cut back on elaborate trips. They'll still go around Mobile, they go to the symphony, they go to a lot of art things on Sundays when the galleries are open for show. They have a regular exercise program, they have art, painting, they have two different painting groups, and they do crafts. We have a bottle of wine on Mondays, we go and join in drinking some wine, and join the neighbors. It's an active kind of place.

If we plan on moving into a senior community, it will be Somerby of Mobile. The staff was excellent and the activities were all very nice. They have bingo, shuffleboard, a swimming pool, trips, and movies once a week. We saw a studio apartment, which was very nice. There was a small kitchenette and a large closet in the studio. We also visited a 1-bedroom, which was very nice as well.

You get the typical sales pitch like a used car sales person would give. Promises that don't come to fruition after the paper work is signed. Rooms are decent like a motel. Dining room repeats itself after a while loaded with cream sauces, lots of pasta and no protein to speak of, gets old on the buffet table. How many times can you order a burger before that gets old. The buffet looks like it has sat and the bacon at breakfast is burnt and greasy cold. Dinner is served at lunch time and dinner is a brunch. Maintenance is slow to respond, I mean like 3 weeks for the cable box, 30 days for Comcast to connect it. Asked 5 times for a washer dryer to be replaced, that was 6 weeks. Staff in lobby was friendly, activities director couldn't be bothered if you needed extra handling. You must like parlor games or alcohol and smoking for the gambling trips. Depressing even on the independent side with everyone crippled in someway. Housekeeping was skipping the cleaning when they think you don't pay attention. The pool is only for aerobics, you can't go alone and no one on staff has time for you. The pill nurse had an aid that didn't care when she got there or if you were having issues to notify staff, even after being told about it. One aid responsible for bathing and meals would get there 20 minutes before kitchen closed so no time to bath over a week. They breached the contract and took appliances out of apartment before lease was up. Some there that make comments about your clothes as if they were in grade school. Unless you like a boring regimented lifestyle with parlor games for entertainment, this would not be the place for an active person or at least have close relatives that can keep an eye on things and take you around, but then what is the point?

Somerby of Mobile was a large community with lots of amenities. They had a nice library area, swimming pool, covered parking available, and so on. The club house was large, with room for lots of different activities. The person who gave me the tour was friendly, knowledgeable, and very clear in her explanations. She was very accommodating in showing us several living options. We also ate there, and the food was good.

I've already bought a property at Somerby of Mobile to build my own home. It's a gated community, and it is perfect for what I want. Everybody is very friendly. Everything that I've heard is fine, and they have everything that I need, but I'm not living there yet and I won't for another five months until they build the house. They have a swimming pool, exercise rooms, all sorts of activities, movies, trips, and transportation. They have everything that I want.

Somerby of Mobile is a very modern and clean place. I went there, and the place was great. They have independent living and assisted living. The marketing person was very informative. He called in a nurse, and we discussed the situation; that is how we came to the conclusion that they cannot help us because they don’t have a nursing home.

Somerby of Mobile was awesome as well as their staff. What I liked most about the community was the fact that they took everybody out for a tour once a week. They took the residents to the places where they needed to go. They also had a swimming pool where everybody could get in and swim.
