1]that has internet access in all common areas and where
correct
2]where internet access is in all common areas and where
incorrect IMO the linking verb is needs a main verb

3]which has internet access in all common areas and where
which is a non essential modifier and hence needs a comma

4]that internet access is available in all common areas and where
lacks llelism , here though the error of verb of option 2 is corrected but new error of llelism is making it wrng

5]that has internet access in all common areas and that
the two clauses separated by and is not llel
IMO A

A- you must use the same relative modifier to begin each parallel clause (this sentence either needs to begin each clause with "that" or with "where"

B- correct

C- relative modifier's must be the same (either "which" twice or "where" twice)

D- Same issues as in A and C

E- you would need to insert "has" at the end of the answer choice for it to make sense.

IMO B. We use the relative modifier "where" to describe a place. In this qs only B uses it.

Can't we describe place using "which"?

I think we can use "which" with a "comma" before it to describe a place.

Egypt, which is land of pyramids, is my favorite place.

Since there is no "which with a comma" option stream we can eliminate the choices

"The new office complex will be a place ,which has internet access in all common areas and where informal meeting areas stimulate communication among various departments. "

-----can make a difference.
