I really like and feel safe in my individual apartment, but the management does not do enough to make the community as a whole feel safe enough. Packages are often stolen from resident's front doors (where they are delivered despite the leasing agreement saying packages will be held in the office or lockers) and multiple cars have been broken into in both guest parking and the gated residential parking. Management's response has been to send emails reminding us to lock our doors (not much help when multiple windows are broken by someone trying to get into your car) and install cameras that don't seem to function when you need it.

The rooms and amenities are nice, but the complex has done nothing to prevent the regular car break ins and package thefts that occur at the complex.

Sabina (along with Marq, Aura, and the upcoming Troubador) are all likely the best apartment buildings to be in that are close to UT's law school.
The area around the law school is where you will find the highest concentration of other law students. A very rough estimation puts about 40% of the people I know living within two blocks of my building. It's great because it's only a short walk away from the law school - avoiding the (frankly expensive) parking garage fees, and allowing me to get some extra steps in every day.

Within this area, generally known as Hancock, there are a lot of available options for apartments, and some townhomes, if you're willing to get roommate. While not being cheap options ($1300/mo for a 450-sqft 1bed/1bath last time I checked), they are all very modern, with Sabina, the oldest of the four, being built in 2014. This is in contrast to almost all of the other options available in the Hyde Park or Hancock areas, which are mainly holdovers from the population boom in the 70s and 80s. The prices are more bearable when the parking and washer/dryer costs are included in the rent price, as many other buildings will attempt to nickle-and-dime those kinds of expenses out of you.

Sabina is great because there are a lot of law students in the building. Other perks are the gym and the pool. My car's catalytic converter got stolen within three weeks of moving in and there are weekly reported break-ins, so parking is not great. It's also more than I wanted to pay in rent but that's what you get for living in a luxury apartment, I guess.

You are close to the law school and you control your own AC. Those are pretty much the selling points.

Downsides:
Tone deaf property management
Ridiculous rent increases (although, to their credit, these were somewhat in line with the wider Austin market)
Huge rash of property theft (stolen packages every week, cars routinely broken into in the lot)
Incoherent response to snowstorm that flooded a large number of apartments in the building and left residents without water
Front door lock (to entire building) has been broken for MONTHS
Lobby elevator (only one with guest access) routinely down for management
Exterior of building reeks of dog piss because people can’t be bothered to walk their pets more than 2 feet away from the door so all of the grass is dead
They want you to use 2 trash cans to set out your recycling separately from your trash, but cheaped out on valet trash companies and now only provide you with a single trash can for both (and no, it doesn’t have 2 compartments).
Somehow managed to convince ~130 law students that there is something they hate more than their Civ Pro class

But hey, I got a losing scratch off ticket for “resident appreciation”, so I’ve got that goin for me, which is nice.

The common areas are always clean, it's an easy walking distance to school, units have spacious bathrooms and tall ceilings, great and fast maintenance team. Only complaint is packages are easily stolen because there is not a locker or hub so they leave them outside your apartment door.

Elevators are really slow. There are package thieves. Cars have been broken into in the garage.

It's a nice building but bad management. Packages keep getting stolen and they don't do anything about it. Lots of cars get broken into as well. Super convenient but you should probably just live at Marq or Aura for similar price.

Sabina is far from perfect but it's super close to school, not crazy expensive, all my friends live in the building or in Marq or Aura, and parking is free. I can walk to school and there's coffee shops and grocery stores nearby.

Overall, I like where I live, but I think Sabina could put more of an emphasis on safety for residents.
