The Bluff at Waterworks Landing, tuscaloosa-al

Compared to other Tuscaloosa options, the bluff is spacious. However there were more downsides. This one particular unit received over 20 noise complaints and management was empathetic but overall nothing was done; I had to get the police involved and it messed up my sleep schedule and quality of living. The pool was drained during the warm months so we couldn’t use it. They do construction at 8 o clock in the morning during the semester instead of when people are gone in the summer. The printer in the office never worked. Also a major security issue is the gate never worked. My roommates car was broken into. And then when we would try to leave the parking lot, the gate wouldn’t open when it was shut. Our apartment building didn’t have its own dumpster so we would have to walk a substantial amount to throw out our trash.

I have been leaving here for almost going into 3 years and I moved her from the Crimson, which was an upgrade in my opinion. It hasn’t been perfect living here from having to get a lot of things fixed or replaced because they weren’t working when I previously moved in to not having working ac for a min. However, they do a good job at making sure their residents do feel heard and feel welcomed. I have came in the clubhouse to get help or get a place to study and it has been the peak of my stay here.

Horrible place to live, I’ve been locked out of the so called “24 hour” clubhouse (where the gym/pool are located) almost every time I try to use them and when I call to see if the worker I can very clearly see sitting at the desk on her phone can open the door I get an AI assistant instead of a person. Maintenance barely knocks they just let themselves into the units with no heads up and track mud in with them, the construction crews they have working here have been creepy at best and leering at the young women who live here while they work on siding for 5 months (because that’s how long that should take) not to mention they begin work at 7 am and it’s impossible to get anything done here because of how loud they are, personally they make me feel very unsafe. You pay for the amenities and square footage of a balcony and clubhouse access neither of which you will ever get to step foot in because of constant construction, not to mention how filthy and covered in cockroaches this place was when I moved into the units, there were still previous residents belongings in my room. And all of this is if the gate even works to let you into the complex, sometimes it won’t open and sometimes any old person could waltz up into the “safe” gated community. And I have never once seen the “security” that is supposedly patrolling 24/7 .Truly living here has been one of the worst experiences of my life, do not do it it isn’t worth the pains.

The best apartment in Tuscaloosa! Amazing view, great service, amazing gym, and awesome staff! 10/10 recommend!

I (late 20s, graduate student) have lived here for three years now, and while it isn't perfect, it is a very good place to live (especially when you're enrolled at UA). The apartment I have with a roommate is very spacious, the amenities are very nice (made plenty of use of the gym, and the bus coming directly to and from campus has been one of the best parts), and the staff has always been very friendly (again, special mention of the front office staff). There are improvements to be made of course, but it's an apartment complex in a college town and many of these things are to be expected. Highly recommend giving it a look if you're moving to Tuscaloosa.
