Two coworking spaces can look similar in photos and feel completely different in person. Before you commit, run every space you tour through this simple checklist.
1. Internet you can trust
Ask about the speed and, crucially, the backup. Your work depends on it. Worksiva runs high-speed fibre with backup so calls never drop.
2. Comfortable seating
You'll spend eight hours a day in that chair. Ergonomic seating isn't a luxury — it's the difference between a productive day and a sore back.
3. Natural light and air
Bright, well-ventilated, plant-filled spaces keep energy and mood up. Dark, stuffy rooms do the opposite.
4. The right kind of desk
Match the plan to how you work — a flexible hot desk, a dedicated desk, or a Flexi-Private Cabin for a team.
5. Location and access
Is it easy to reach? Is there parking and food nearby? Do the opening hours fit your schedule?
6. Amenities that are actually included
Check what's bundled versus billed as extras — pantry, printing, meeting-room credits and lockers. See our full amenities.
7. Meeting rooms
Even if you don't need one daily, you'll want a professional meeting room for client calls and interviews.
8. Community
Who else works there? A good mix of founders and freelancers turns a desk into a network.
9. Flexible terms
Look for minimal lock-in and the ability to scale up or down as your needs change.
10. How it feels
Trust your gut on the tour. If the space feels calm and welcoming, you'll do your best work there. Book a free tour and see for yourself.
