Summary

What residents praise

The staff are responsive and personal

Residents repeatedly name front-desk, maintenance and management staff who solve problems quickly, help through moves and make the building feel welcoming.

Shared spaces support work and community

The 24-hour gym, coworking area, rooftop and resident events are frequently cited as useful rather than decorative amenities.

Journal Square is close at hand

Residents value the short PATH walk plus nearby groceries, restaurants and everyday services, especially when commuting to New York.

What residents complain about

Thin walls can make neighbors easy to hear

Several residents describe conversations, televisions and late-night parties carrying clearly between apartments, with management intervention not always resolving the problem.

Leasing details and construction need a close look

Critical accounts mention being shown a different layout, unclear lease-break costs and early construction noise that can also affect access or views.

Amenities

28 Cottage has in-unit laundry and an attended front desk with package service. Residents have a fitness center with yoga room and a rooftop lounge with a grilling terrace.
