During my stay in Istanbul I spent 4 weeks in this coworking space, and it ended up with a very bad experience! I'm giving this space one star just as a thank you for some members and the staff being so kind, especially one senior manager and the girl at the reception.
Pros:
-Calm, business inducing neighborhood
-Cozy building
-Kind staff
Cons:
-Lack of any manuals/guidance/instructions about any rules that members of the space should stick to, which led to many members of the space behaving freely without taking other members into consideration (loudly laughing and talking on the phone the whole time,...), seems everyone can do whatever they want withoutasking others permission (turn on and off the heater, or opening and closing doors,,,), simply no rules!
-Lack of any business related events (seminars, training,,...)
-Lack of any professional assistance (mentoring, consulting,...)
-If you don't speak Turkish, or at least understand a bit, you will find a difficulty communicating
-Lack of professionalism managing the space
Reason for leaving the space:
-Some members of the space seem to have no idea about the concept of a coworking space, again because of unprofessional management and lack of any given rules/instructions in the place!
One member did something childish, very sick and disrespectful that led me to leaving the space. This would be way worse if it will turn out to be done by the space staff! And this place should be shut down if it's done by both of them, the member and the staff together!
-Staff badly managed my subscription with them, and tried to move me around the place by giving me a very weak argument, which I highly think is related to the previously mentioned member's bad doing, and it would be a disaster in such case!
