    Okay if you are an intern
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    I liked that it has a mail room and study spaces. The frequency of resident events made it easier to meet new people.
    Cons:
    The bathrooms were disgusting, mold in every room and it took a while for maintenance to come. The cafeteria food is very expensive. I can also equate this place to a very mid hostel.
