Bwog recommendation:

The quintessential New York apartment. Super spacious with roof access and front steps, 627 W 115th is a fantastic option for rising juniors and seniors. You won’t even notice the lack of AC, elevators, gym, and computer lab when you’re hanging out in your gorgeous studio apartment or entertaining 20+ friends in your 900-square foot triple room.
