Jie’s apartment was clean and had everything we needed. Checkin was keys in a combination lockbox downstairs. The apartment is on the third floor (no elevator if that is a concern - we were fine)
There was a window air conditioner in the living room and the main bedroom, a ceiling fan in the bedroom and an extra box fan. All were used to cool the apartment down on a 90+ degree day and did ok keeping things comfortable after that.
If you are driving, parking is crazy in Jersey City, but this is not Jie’s fault. There are half a dozen different regulations that apply to street parking spots in the area around the apartment (metered or unmetered). The metered spaces are managed by ParkMobile, which you can pay for via their app. Those spaces within comfortable walking distance clear out during the day time but there are different wacky regulation signs that may keep you from leaving your car long-term - no parking between 10am-12pm Tuesday and Thursday, no parking between 3-5pm Tuesday and Friday, no parking without residential permit between 3pm-9pm Monday-Friday etc (these are all real)
We found a couple of pay lots that operated 24 hours near Journal Square PATH station, between 10-20minute walks to the apartment.
This location is fine if you are without a vehicle to manage. There are a couple of buses across the street to take you to the PATH station up the road, but you could walk to it as well. PATH was easy to use to get to and from Manhattan.
