What about experimenting with moving your bed to different parts of the bedroom where it could possibly absorb less vibrations? And also earplugs can reduce the amount of sound entering your ears without having to use your headphones. I used to use earplugs to help me sleep and they were great. All I could hear was the sound of my own breath. But I didn't have the rumbling issue which you do.

Thank you sincerely for the reply.
My unit is just a small single, maybe I'd estimate ~10x10 ft. room though so with things like my mini-fridge and table it doesn't leave much room for re-arranging unfortunately :/ I did try moving my bed to the opposite wall once though, but that wall is the inside one that connects to the hallway so I can really hear and feel the doors and everything slamming around there.
I do wear earplugs every night too though when I lay down to sleep. I found these silicon putty swimmers earplugs that are actually really great in general, but unfortunately not great enough and even with 3 box fans running (to stay cool and help mask the noise) and the ear plugs in I'm still able to hear and of-course feel everything, and, (also unfortunately) got a small piece that broke off stuck inside my left ear a couple weeks ago lol...

My mattress and box spring is on a metal frame, even tried putting cushions and pillows under the legs of the frame and I can still feel it plain as day just as much as before.
