Reasons Why Interns.NYC Is The Place For Interns
/Looking for an accommodation in New York City can be quite a daunting and a tiresome task. Especially if you're only planning to stay in the city for an internship that lasts a few months.
On top of the high rental price, you also have to be prepared to sign a lease with a duration that is perhaps longer than the length you desire. And then there is the whole moving in process that should be unnecessary for a short stay.
That is why a co-living setup, like Interns.NYC, who is managing our apartments is becoming a popular choice among interns. It provides an affordable all-inclusive package, worry-free move in, and a community that will instantly make you feel at home.
Jordan Key, a former film intern here in New York, had stayed in our Flatbush House for exactly these reasons.
"The move in process was very simple and easy. It literally took me a few minutes to settle in as everything was pretty much there," he said. "The best part was not having to go through a long leasing process."
To help you get a better picture of what Interns.nyc co-living setup has to offer, we have also compiled all the perks available at our six houses.
1. Value for money
New York is already one of the most expensive cities to live in. So why waste your money on furniture, kitchen appliances, or even simple things like bedsheets?
At Interns.nyc, with a membership price that starts at as low as $690 a month, you get high-speed wi-fi, top quality furniture and kitchen equipment, as well as twice-a-week professional cleaning services, just to name a few.
Every floor also has its own laundry unit that you can use for free at any time!
Now think of all the money you get to save, and use instead on other things that can ensure you have the best New York City experience.
2. Hassle-free move in
Interns.nyc always strives to make the move in process as simple as possible, so those staying with us can immediately get down to whatever brought them to New York City.
Hence why we went with a month-to-month membership concept that will allow you to decide yourself, the duration of your stay. This way you don't have to worry about the hassle of signing a lease. Basically, you can move in and move out whenever you like.
Also, all our bedrooms come fully furnished with not just a bed, but also shelves, cabinet spaces and reading lights.
So all you need to do is bring your suitcase and we'll help you settle in, hassle-free!
Jordan agreed. "Especially as I was new to New York City. Interns.nyc's houses were almost like a college dorm, but better, because they are nicer. And there was also a TV," he said.
3. Community and friendship
Internships can take up most of your time. After all, it is the opportunity for you to learn and impress. The better your performance is, the better your chances at securing permanent employment in the future.
But this means that most of your days will be spent at the place of your internship, making the process of forming friendships not as easy as, say, when you're in college.
With co-living, you get to meet people who share the same story as you, either in the house you're living in, or those from our other houses.
And at Interns.nyc, we are always organizing different events that can help with the bonding process.
Just recently we threw a Valentine's Day party that saw more than a dozen of our members participating. It sure helped break the ice, and made our new members felt welcome!
"The social events were a good way to meet new people," said Jordan. "They helped a lot because when I moved to New York, I barely knew anyone."
4. Co-working space
All our houses come with a fully furnished co-working space that allows you to work at maximum productivity level.
Yes, this includes an endless supply of good quality coffee powder that will help get you going all day and all night long!
And as you are paying for membership instead of just rent, you can move between the co-working spaces at our six different houses.
"I like the fact that there was a printer," said Jordan. "The couches were also very comfortable to work on."
5. Great location
Our six houses are located all around Bushwick, Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn and Ridgewood Queens. They are close to the subways as well as Manhattan, so you don't have to waste time commuting or worry about being late to work!
There are also plenty of reasonably-priced local stores, restaurants and bars scattered around our houses. Whenever you need a break, you know there's a place for it nearby.
