Freshman Internship Advice

I just finished my freshman year at a non target private and need some advice. Assuming I get the offers, what do you think would be a better internship for me (Not knowing exactly I want to do in finance after graduation), a PWM intern at a ML office or an intern at a local boutique I bank that is fairly decent in size (6 global offices). Which one would better position me for future internships? Thanks for the help
