J Residence - Do residents still have to pay to use facilities???

Posted by gerry101101 (73 days ago)

Hi all. We're looking at moving to J Residence in Wanchai. However, we've heard that you may need to pay to use the facilities there (pool, gym, club rooms and roof, etc)? DOes anyone know if this is true, and if so - how does it work - is it a set fee per month or per use of a facility, etc???
Grateful if anyone can shed light on this...
Thanks

It's not just J residences I think, and it's on a per use basis.

Pay per use
Pool HKD25 per day
Gym HKD20 per day
Club rooms - yes. not sure of the price.
Roof - no, generally, but if you want to have a BBQ/event, then no outside booze or food - you have to source from J-R (pricey).
Casual, general use of the roof is non-chargeable.

These are questions your agent and potential landlord should be able to answer easily and in detail.

Great - thanks guys. Much appreciated. Doesn't sound like a great deal: we may look elsewhere. Appreciate the info.

$20 for the pool is the same as if you were to use a public pool. doesn't seem to crazily priced. but, i don't know what rent they are asking for a flat.

We are not in J but in Discovery Bay and the pool is part of membership but EVERYTHING else is pay per use. Insane. Thinking of not bothering with membership.
