Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some suggestions for relatively clean and affordable intern housing in Midtown NYC:

  1. Murray Hill / Gramercy:

    • Popular for Midtown offices.
    • Rent ranges from $2k-3k for living alone or $1.5-$2.25k with roommates.
    • Good nightlife and a lot of young professionals.
  2. Long Island City (LIC):

    • Close to Midtown (1-2 train stops into the city).
    • Lower cost of living compared to Manhattan.
    • Nightlife isn't amazing, but proximity to the city makes it easy to commute for social activities.
  3. Sublet or AirBnB:

    • Consider subletting or using AirBnB in these locations for flexibility and potentially lower costs.

For more detailed discussions and reviews, you can refer to the SA 2021 NYC Housing Thread on Wall Street Oasis.
