Full time or part time unpaid freshman summer internship?

Exactly what the title asks. It’s for a small pe firm, seems legit (managing partner is from HBS). Since it’s unpaid I’m not sure if it’s worth doing full time or if I should just do it for the experience. Doing it a part time would allow me to have more time for other stuff though. Any help would be appreciated thanks.
