Advantages

Has alot of stuff, if not all the stuff you would need for drafting. It has things that would be very useful for site models, such as the model trees and turf. These things were originally made for model train sets and stuff like that, but there is no reason y i cant be used for your architecture models. Also has other basic art supplies so you can explore with other materials in your projects.

Disadvantages

Basically unreachable by bus, and is about 15-20 minutes drive from campus. So you'll probably have to either hitch a ride or get a taxi.
