I like living at Sabina
Pros: responsive management, security, free parking, pool, location!

Cons: slow elevators that break somewhat often, no package lockers, the gym is super outdated

good value!!

Close to the law school.

Tons of law students around! Once my car battery died and I ran into a classmate who jumped it before I even got back to my apartment. Community feel is good. Also, very walkable, right amount of amenities for me.

My partner and I have been living at Sabina for almost a year and a half now. We chose to renew our lease because we love our unit's floor plan, and could keep our existing rate when we extended our lease for another year. While there have been rare instances of theft/security problems in the garages, I have never felt unsafe at the apartment or in the surrounding area.

There are a few repeated complaints we have, but none of them have amounted to significant problems for us overall:

First, there are constant problems with the elevators. It is rare for all three of them to be working properly, and there have even been times when multiple or all elevators have been down. Along similar lines, there have been maybe 2-3 instances in which the gates to the parking garages have malfunctioned (preventing people from coming/going), but I don't think it lasted for more than a few hours each time.

Second, we have had numerous issues with receiving our mail and packages. There is no uniform system for deliveries, and even though management has reminded us that there is technically no mail room, people deliver outside our mailboxes in the lobby, and even leave packages with the front office. If deliverers get confused or can't access the elevators (due to them being only resident-access outside of business hours) to deliver to our front doors, then many packages end up delayed, lost, or even stolen. I will give management credit that the office is very helpful in notifying us about any packages that get delivered to them, but it is still frustrating that there is no uniform system in the first place, and few solutions exist when any problems arise.

Lastly, many of the amenities (e.g., grills, pool, etc.) have been inoperable for periods of time without warning. And even when we have received notice about closures, they have ended up lasting several weeks without many updates about the ongoing timeline.

Note: these problems have absolutely nothing to do with the maintenance staff at Sabina, as they are all lovely and very responsive to any requests submitted. These complaints rest with the overall maintenance/management of the apartment and its facilities.

I'll be here all three years for a reason

It's about 7-9 mins driving from campus. My unit is pretty spacious and their are co-working space if you want to get out of your apartment. I haven't had any issues the management team is pretty responsive and helpful.

It's overpriced, but a nice apartment. My biggest complaint is that the walls are thin and I've had multiple issues with noise coming from upstairs apartments and the pool area. Gym is adequate for small things but has no real barbell weight rack for squats and bench--only a smith machine.

Clean and good neighbors, great units

I'll be renewing here for a third year because management is great, the building feels clean, and its proximity to the law school.
