Fiber options - SM or MM?

I'm building out a new network room that is about 350 feet away from the main network room and cannot decide if I should go with single or multi mode (OM3) fiber. I know the big one is distance capability of SM, which doesn't enter in this equation, but are there any other reasons to go with one over the other? Cost of the optics or cable is not a concern, and I don't want to run both.

Thanks all!
