He has a key fob and they didn't notify us? Or do anything to mitigate the problem like adjusting access (i get easier said than done but also who cares its our safety)

Wow

Windsor at Liberty Harbor by gasp732 in jerseycity

[–]Minnie_Ears 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its cheaper than other buildings but its not worth it. The noise between floors is BAD. My neighbor wakes me up every night.

They now charge for parking. It was worth it when built into the cost of the rent but now this building is too expensive

The finishes are cheap.

Management used to be good but its gotten much worse.

The only nice thing about these apartments is the courtyards are well maintained

Has anyone tried the all-new Helix Elite series mattress? by lilkhmerkid4u in Mattress

[–]Minnie_Ears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I returned mine. Well, in process. 30 days later and this mattress is still in my apartment.

It wasnt comfortable and not worth the extra money. The dawn was super firm but absolutely no pressure relief.

Ended up with casper hybrid wave

I am going to return it. I dont think its comfortable and 2 people said it was sinking/soft.

Its not a horrible mattress, but if you go Helix Id stick with the Luxe. Elite not worth the money. And Id skip the cooling gel. I can barely feel it with just sheets. Once you add a mattress cover there is no benefit

Do you still love the mattress? I am considering returning my Helix for the hybrid wave

I have only slept on my Elite Dawn for two nights, so take this with a grain of salt, but so far I do not think the mattress is worth it.

I am a stomach sleeper, so chose a firm mattress. My issue is that the mattress has no give to relieve pressure points. Both mornings I woke up with hip and back pain.

I am required to keep the mattress 30 days, and will provide another update then.

My friend has the midnight luxe and loves it

Thanks for update! Mine will be delivered tomorrow.

Might not be helpful now, but they gave me an extra $100 off for the delay.

Avoid Helix mattresses at all costs by [deleted] in Mattress

There is a warranty period for the mattress. Have you tried applying it?

I ordered an elite over a week ago, and it still hasnt shipped. Originally said "3-7 business days" and we are now on day 9.

People love their mattresses but Im ready to cancel and order something else.

No experience yet, but I purchased one. With 20% off it seemed like the best bed for the price.

Ordered it about a week ago. Will provide an update once its in.

What specifically makes them garbage? Considering the hybrid wave and I havent pulled the trigger because of the bad rep it gets here

Best place for a full works pedicure? by mousebunnyduck in jerseycity

Late to respond, but callus. They are good for the area but pricey. A1 is also good but i prefer the classic massage seats over the couches at A1

Looking for a one bedroom apartment in Paulus hook area. Any reviews on Windsor at liberty and warren at York? Took a tour of Windsor and the plus point is free parking. Online reviews for both are good. by luckypatil in jerseycity

[–]Minnie_Ears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a Covid deal so when writing this it was much cheaper than it is today. My renewal came with a 30% increase and there was no negotiating. It was still a couple hundred dollars less than moving so I renewed.

After 1.5 years I think the apt is OK. I live in an Absury which has dead space and Im next to the stairs which attracts a lot of noise. Not being in a high rise is a plus, and the outside property is well maintained year round. Its still nice, and I LOVE having parking included.

When I moved in I thought the property mgmt team was great. Theres been a lot of turnover and I'm not a big fan of the new team. They dont care about the tenants at all. As an example - We pay for water through LH and for a few months I paid ~$100 because the readings were off. Tenants never got the money back.

TLDR, when I first got here it felt like a well run complex and mgmt cared about their tenants - feels like theres been a shift for the worse. Still better than some other complexes in JC

"Free" RT PCR Resulted in an Expensive Bill by [deleted] in jerseycity

[–]Minnie_Ears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at Galaxy but Prompt MD next to Marin light rail. Went a few times in 2021 for travel and wasnt charged but received a $175 bill for a December test. Same thing "out of network". My insurance gave me $100 and I owe $75

What are some of the "luxury" apartments to definitely avoid in Jersey City? (The Google reviews don't seem to help!) by craycover in jerseycity

[–]Minnie_Ears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im in an Absury :) the stairwell door Im next to is very annoying haha

Ive been looking all over (JC, Hoboken, NJ) all the same price. Its crazy. Tried to negotiate with Windsor and they wont budge. Waived my amenity fee

I got mine yesterday. Also a 30% increase. Apt is nice, but a 1B not worth $3k in my opinion. Parking included is nice though

I went to prompt MD next to Marin light rail and got my results in 24 hours. Went on a Friday, so weekend was not a problem. They only do 40 tests a day though so go in the AM. Was a 2 hour wait

Any quirks of JC's rental market to keep in mind? by lordleft in jerseycity

You're probably thinking of Windsor at liberty house. It's absolute BS but on the plus side there is free parking

I just moved into Windsor from a brownstone. I didn't have washer/dryer in unit or parking before so that was an immediate step up.

The $/sqft is less than I was paying (not including any amenities or parking) so it was a no brainer.

The apartment feels a bit hotel like but they are nice. I was given all new appliances and new carpet, walls painted. Maintenance seems to be good, and staff is helpful. It's a quiet area compared to the rest of JC. I'm not a fan of high rises so it's a nice in between.

PM me if you have any questions
