Review of Washington Intern Student Hous...

Do not live in the cheapest option here. You will ...

Do not live in the cheapest option here. You will get stuck paying overpriced rent for what is basically a studio apartment that you share with 3 other people. I lived on the top bunk and I felt like I was at summer camp, and not in a good way. The apartment was outdated, not kept clean, and the elevator was always broken. We didn t even have an oven or stove; we had to use the toaster oven if we wanted to cook anything. The apartment they show online has a table for sitting, but most apartments don t have that unless you re lucky. There were two desks to be shared between four people and getting ready for work in the morning is a nightmare with the tiniest bathroom and closet you ve ever seen. Also, they say your deposit is refundable, but we were only refunded half due to some fine print that says they keep $300 for administrative fees. I know some people who lived in the nicer apartments that enjoyed their experience, but I can t even imagine what they were paying because our rent was already outrageous as is for the cheapest option.

Also, I m sure they ll reply to this post saying I wish you would ve reached out sooner to resolve your concerns or whatever garbage they say to make this place look better. There is no resolving the fact that WISH is a scam to profit off of people who don t do enough research before moving to the city. Look elsewhere or hate your living situation for months like I did.
