I'll second sansevierras (also called snake plant or mother in law's tongue). When I started working as a programmer I had one in my office in the back of a windowless office. It was amusing seeing how many people assumed it as a fake plant as they didn't a plant could live back there.
Zamioculcas (or ZZ Plants) are also another very hardy plant that do well in low light and can take a lot of abuse.
There is also Pothos, several types of ferns (Boston being the most aviable in my experience), Spathiphyllum (peace lilly), Dieffenbachia, Monstera, Spiderplant, Rubber plant, weeping fig, fiddle leaf fig. All of these are pretty common and should be relatively easy to find.
If you want some more interesting ones there are Calathea Triostar, Ficus Doescheri & Tradescantia Tricolor which all have a pinklish marbling, & Tradescantia pallida which is a deep purple.
