Houlihan ADG in DC or RBS Loan Markets in NYC?

I have two internship offers for the summer, one in DC for the ADG division at Houlihan and one for the syndicated loan markets division at RBS.

Am I nuts for thinking about taking the RBS job in NYC? The hours are A LOT better than ADG (as I've heard the DC office is a sweatshop), plus I've lived in DC but never in New York. I also think I like the idea of working on a syndication desk.

Now I know RBS isn't the name the Houlihan is (at least in the states), but how important is a big name firm for your internship? Would it be stupid to pass up HLHZ?
