They claim to be a smoke free community but they also have a term in the lease explicitly stating that they will not be responsible for that. As a result, a lot of heavy and sophisticated smokers live in the community. You can smell cigarettes and/or marijuana (faint or strong) all day long in the hallways. To make it worse, these smell will come out of every corner of the apartment since their ventilation and insulation are poor. To report to management does not work at all. The smoking usually... peak in the night when the management office is off. They do offer another party of responsibility called command center, but people there are lazy liars. First, they are not usually available/reachable. In most cases, they follow up at least one hour after the reporting- if you are lucky enough to reach them and they feel they like to come by. Second, even if they come and inspect, they would claim that they smell nothing as long as the smell is faint. If you speak anything, they will repeat “I have come and I smell nothing” before you finish with a hostile expression on their face. With service like this, it’s fair to say their seemingly low price is actually NOT.

Helpful in Leasing
I’ve been look tirelessly for a place until I discovered this place. Priscella went above and beyond for me taking videos and assisting with the best deals. It made looking for a home a breeze!

Terrible Experience for Criterion Building
The Beacon deserves a negative rating. I have been leaving here from last 2 years. The sad part about beacon is that the buildings are old so every other day there is a lot of maintenance. They only look good from the outside.
Sharing my experience based on my stay from last couple of years. Criterion is the worst building of all.
Fire Alarms: Every apartment has fire alarms installed. Some apartments keeps their door to let cooking smoke out and this causes the whole buildings loud fire... alarm turn on for a lot of times especially during nights.
Elevators: The buildings are at least 18 floors and has minimum 3 elevators out of which 1 of them is kept booked for trash collection and the other does not work because the management is not able to fix the issue of that one elevator and it gets stuck randomly.
Water: They send email 7 minutes before that water is going to get shutdown for 12 hours during the day as emergency repairs and share apologies emails keeping 4 carts of water to be shared by the whole building.
Additional Costs to be aware of: Average water usgae: $20 Average sewage usage: $20 Monthly billing statement generation cost : $4.65 Trash fee: $20 Parking fee: $230 Monthly Amenities cost: $85
I know the rent prices are going up in jersey city and building management are becoming more careless about their residents because they know if existing residents leave in frustration they can sell their unit for more better price. If you're thinking of moving here still when the management people are done showing you the property and sweet talking with you, please take some time from them and also causally ask for opinions from existing residents about their experience.

Place is hell on a mountain
The management company treats there tenants horribly after u sign your lease.. BLT might be a good sandwich but it’s horrible if they are talking about the management company… The gym machines are always broken.. elevators break down all the time, fire alarms go off all day and night.. The shuttle bus are always late so if it’s raining or cold u will freeze.. they cut the buses hours so u will be paying 10-25 dollars each way for Ubers to go 5 mins.. Security is never around and neighborhood is... not safe AT ALL.. u will feel very isolated living here. Also when it’s time to renew ur lease.. they will try to raise it 350-500 dollars and give u nothing in return.. they don’t care about ur loyalty..p.s when it’s windy WI-FI WONT WORK AND ITS ALWAYS WINDY
