Spaces 22 Arroba Barcelona: All-Inclusive Coworking

* There is no free coffee and no drinking water.

* There are extra fees (15-30 eur) when you're starting or closing the contract.

* The fix desk coworking room is noisy (ac/heating makes a lot of noise) and there's no natural light (basement).

* The size of the table for the fix seat is too small for a monitor. The chair is not suitable/comfortable to work 8 hours per day.

* There is no coverage/insurance included if someone steals your belongings.

* The "month to month" contract is tricky because it forces you to stay an extra month (e.g. you want to cancel end of Dec and they force you to pay until end of Jan).

* I like the office design. The area around the coworking is nice (Poble Nou, calm streets, nice restaurants). With the contract you have access to all Spaces offices (more than 100) worldwide.

There are several coworking spaces around Spaces like (Talent garden, Aticco, Utopicus, Loom, wework) giving a better quality-price service.

Not a coworker, but I've done tours on various coworkings and received the most professional attention yet from Julio. The space does not suit entirely with what I am looking for, but it looked tidy, clean and well decorated.

This company is full of extremely shady practices, the people in the office are nice, however they hid a cost deep within their terms and conditions which is completely illegal and then auto charged my card for this cost. Furthermore after 15 chasing emails and hours on the phone I have yet to even get back my deposit. Almost certainly most people do not chase these things and the company simply charge whatever fees they like and steal deposits of their customers without any desire to return the money. Never again will I be a customer of this company and I would highly suggest everyone to avoid this office.

Edit: Their reply is that "the concerns were escalated" which basically means the escalation team telling me that there's nothing that they can do, and still not returning my deposit, don't believe their PR reply

WeWork Pallars has all the qualities a good co-working space should have: spacious tables, cozy atmosphere, silence, and amenities on the house (coffee, tea, water) that make working here an experience on its own. Prices are even below market (as of march 2021). Pretty cool.

The people are very friendly. The space itself is not nice though. Underground and no basic coffee. First time I encountered that in a cowork.
