*I have access through my company* I don't pay for access but I can see the benefits even if I didn't at this point I would pay for access. Having a space outside of my home to land when I need to focus on work is great. The espresso machine, cold brew and kombucha on tap are the best bennies. I will also say the outdoor space is lovely and being surrounded by restaurants is great. Definitely leverage access thru your company if you have it! read more

Tonight I co-hosted event at WeWork and it was nothing short than amazing. The terrace space is perfect for private parties. Plus, there's a stage! I'll definitely be coming back to host another one. Thank you to the WeWork team - Katye & Matt for their excellent customer service. read more

Soo, it's been a few years, and as our lease here finally ends I feel like have soo much insight to provide. First off, the culture here was amazing. There were countless trendy techie professionals from various industries that shared many common situations that could be carried over between industries, and learning from one another definitely helped a lot of start ups survive, as well as more mature companies increase performance with outside input/a differing point of view. It's always refreshing having conversations with others about how one another's businesses function, and getting both positive and negative feed back without judgement about what could be improved and what we could provide to others to help them thrive. That in itself is priceless. WeWork also has many events that happen throughout the week, Monday through Friday. From wine and food vendors throwing welcoming tasting events, Credit Unions hosting breakfasts with free personal and business financial advice and information, to yoga and fitness classes! All free for WeWork members. Plus we're always given insights and firsts on upcoming events both local and else where (since WeWork is international, you can attend these wherever you are!). And did I mention that it's international?! Your keycard unlocks access to any WeWork in the world. That makes it nice especially when you're a frequent traveler. Most of my team rotates between the US, Canada, Vietnam and parts of south East Asian and central/South American. There's a WeWork in every major tech hub. And with that, you'll always be exposed to others from other countries and learn from one another about marketing localizations and such. Not only that, but you'll have someone to call when you finally visit that place you've always wanted to visit! Another minor plus is the location. Most WeWorks are located in the central spot of major cities, so you'll always be avoid the best of foods/restaurants, bars, etc. and with our parking privileges(not apart of the membership) you'll always have a place to meet up before or after the downtown night life(as your keycard unlocks access 24/7). Also, did I mention that there's beer taps on ever other floor??? Haha We've grown from a group of high school friends to a large and thriving company birthing a media, a marketing and a software development company. And with such growth and dozens now employed with us, we can no longer fit everyone who doesn't work remote into one floor and opted to obtain our own office building. But I'll definitely always have a fond memory of this place. read more

This wework is simply incredible. I've been a wework connoisseur for a few years now, ranging from having an office at Redstone in Orange County to now having an office at B st. Every wework location I've been to has been immaculate. The coffee is strong. The community is a vibe. The staff is the best thing since sliced bread, truly. Being greeted by an upbeat, smiling face is such a great way to start the day and on the instance they're not smiling (they're human and I don't expect them to always be) The staff demonstrates a sense of humanism and relatability. There's no ego, which is a lot more than I can say for other office space style business in this realm. With the multiple levels available, welcoming public area and complimentary beverages - this place is the cats meow, the bees knees, basically, they're the sh*t. read more

I haven't had much interaction with WeWork before, and my time in shared workspaces has been somewhat limited to a few meetings here and there, and a brief stint at one near my house. But, you, know, it's not nothing, so I've been able to form a better opinion of these kinds of spaces. I came to San Diego for a couple of days of meetings and we had a room here booked for about two dozen of us. It was a little tricky to access the space, as they only gave the actual point of contact a key card, so we had to coordinate entrance with them. I get it, though, security. It's a nice space, with a bit of an industrial feel, though the shared common spaces have a bit more of a homey vibe going on. Those common spaces have the kitchen, drinks, coffee, sink, you know the drill. Our shared conference room was fine, with rows of seating, and two smaller rooms flanked on each side of the entrance. It's a utilitarian kind of area, and everything worked well for the most part. The tech/projector/audiovisual was functional, and everything was clean. It did have a real lack of plugs, so with a bunch of us needing to charge laptops or phones, it didn't really work. I have no idea about the memberships, but the crowd here seemed mostly young, really into what they are doing, friendly, and there seemed to be a sense of community, which I guess has been WeWork's whole thing. It's fascinating to see what kind of people work at shared workspaces, from tech people, to sales folk, and beyond. read more

My current business is located in prime spot of downtown and due to the owner he is throwing out all the tenants cuz he plan to set his building on fire!!! Based on his lacking communications skills the entire building's businesses is in an uproar. Yours truly here has decided to look at other locations to find the future spot for my new business home. I have reached out to many commercial property around town and email communicated with We Work to book a tour of their facilities and they have me connected w a Ms. Christina. This passing Wednesday morning. This is what transpired. I arrived and waited for this Christina person to appear and to presentes me what We Work is about. This gal - Christina show up in a black worn out sweat shirt and sweat pants (not ironed questioning whether it's has been washed) I am keeping my distance. Yet, her title from the other guy email was "Regional sales!?!?" I can just said, she has no ounce on her to show me she is the regional sale rep. Actually make me wonder what region does she actually qualify for? Don't tell me it's the region out of her little tiny desk in her office? I have a feeling they have 'given' her that title -- I highly doubt she earned any of it. It must be nice that she may have a nice endorsement from the top of the We Work. Then again, I would question on how We Work management are doing if they let this little gal running the show..... And if that's the case. My god! What type of business environment is We Work?!!?!!!! Not run by the very best, rather run by the least experienced and run down. I never expected this ugh interesting experience at We Work. Easily to see this gal has zero work experience nor professionalism. I highly doubt that she knows what that really mean to her. We work environment is unsanitary Not one person in sight is wearing a mask but hey they are young and they want die sooner than later. It's their choice. I'm not their parents! The walking tour last less than 5 min. That girls -- bring all the wrong keys to open any of the office suites. Anything I asked her in regarding the property and the amenities, where she keeps referred it to an email that she will send me on, so she won't confusing me on the details. Sounded like she doesn't even know her own materials nor the place she is currently at. Few day has passes now, no emails. No follow thru email at all. Well, needless to say, I scratched off We Work the moment I left their establishment. What a shame, last time I was here at one of San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce event. And it was from the previous time here I was considering this place, but after this interlude. No thank you!! I will gladly pass!!!!! And before I left their premise, I overheard Ms. Christina bad mouth me, because I wear a mask?!! Wowed... That is .........?!!!???!!!! You know they shouldn't call themself "We Work!" They should call themselves "We Whine!!" Because That Christina clearly qualifies and represented on how they whines~~~~~~~!!!! read more

Spent a few days in a conference room here for some meetings and it was ok. Definitely some things I'd add to the wishlist though... 1. More outlets - There were hardly any in our room and we ended up having to partner breath on the power. 2. Better coffee - They had som sort of complimentary drip, but it was cold and kinda meh. 3. Trash cans or recycling - There were hardly any and it was definitely annoying to just have to pile everything up till the end of the day. I'm sure the amenities and overall experience are better as a longer term tenant so don't let this experience deter you if you're on the fence for a membership. If you just need a place to post up for a day or two though, there's better options. read more

Such a cool work space! I've been to the WeWork in SLU in Washington, but I had never been to the one in SD. The one in SD is trendy, has a great atmosphere, and the Community Managers here are really nice! I'm not sure what's not to love about this place. They have even have an outdoor patio with different games and tons of tables with umbrellas for the nicer days. Free coffee, free beer... Like what else could you ask for from a WORK SPACE? Oh, and it's dog friendly. So if you want to bring your pup along, you can! However, for people like me who don't have their dog with them, it's awesome to be able to see everyone else's dogs. I will admit it's a bit of a distraction because of how obsessed I am with dogs, but it definitely brightens my day each time I see one! Definitely a great switch-up from working at your local coffee shop or even from home. Worth checking out and trying to see if it's the right fit for you! read more

I had an office at this WeWork for nearly 18 months. I recently moved due to needing a type of office they could not accommodate and sorely miss it. Short answer, this is the best co-working in downtown I've tried, highly recommended. Highlights: - Incredible internet service, worst I ever got was 400Mbps up/down and best was just under 1,000Mbps - Highly responsive team always there to help - Free coffee including espresso drinks - Amazing community space on every floor really creates connections Low-lights - Glass walls only - Can be pricey for the size office - Dogs can bark so if you record videos/podcasts can be an issue Before choosing this location I toured every co-working space in downtown and for the money it was hands down the best. I originally had a 3 person office with a view from the 5th floor but after a few hot summer days where my camera gear shut off while recording I had to move to an interior space. They were able to give me a larger unit (4 person) for almost the same price. During my time there I've made several great personal and professional connections that I've kept since leaving. These connections are not only fun but also have benefited my business tremendously. Another perk I enjoyed was being able to drop in to other WeWork locations while traveling. I used this fairly extensively and even recorded interviews in other cities with high-profile guests that would definitely have not traveled to be on my show. Eventually my business which produces YouTube videos and podcasts required me to find a larger space that didn't have glass walls so I could better control sound and lighting. I know there have been some changes since I left but it's hard for me to imagine a better bang for your buck and community than what the B Street team has built. read more

Great view and office to work in. Highly recommend and will be back! There is great kombocha and coffee here as well read more

Excellent design, great and friendly employees! They are always ready to respond to your request quickly. Really helpful team! Thank you, Elizabeth and Jack for your service! read more

This place is ghetto. You can really tell the WeWork fining has dried up. Staff leaving in droves, dirty office spaces and mold in kitchen/common areas. Dog pee puddles on every other floor. "Perks" slowly disappearing. It's insane they are legally allowed to operate honestly. Wildly overpriced too. Avoid. read more

We have we work space all over the country but this was the first time at WeWork B. Loved this place, if I lived in San Diego I would want to work in this space. Great outdoor terrace and open work space on the 3rd floor. We used Conference space on the 5th floor which was perfect with white boards, tv screens, it was pretty soundproof, comfortable work chairs. Tons of open and private areas to work. Bathrooms were super clean. The coffee and options for add ons were great. Staff was amazing, specifically Cameron was the best. Great location with tons of restaurants nearby. I cannot say enough how perfect this place is. read more

This company won't stop contacting me and they aren't reaching out to me to make things right or apologize for what happened. They keep contacting me offering me promotions as if I were interested. I've asked to be removed from their list but I keep getting emails even after being told I won't. THINK TWICE ABOUT GIVING THEM YOUR INFO. Ed Dainko never responded to me after my initial complaint but he emailed me today asking me if I was still interested. Four days ago Ryan Beltrami said and I quote "I'll make sure you aren't contacted again" after he emailed me a promotion. After my awful experience I've been contacted by email three times and by phone once. None of those times has anyone cared to hear about my bad experience or cared to remove me from their list. Such a sloppy company. So easy to go in and remove me from their CRM or whatever system they use for sales. 3/28/17: UPDATE I am still getting unwanted calls from this business. They won't remove me from their list! read more

Great work environment, friendly staff. Both Ashely and Rebecca have been very helpful with my transition into the WeWork community. Being that I just moved to Cali from NY, they've gone the extra mile to recommend local hot spots and always encourage me to attend WeWorks networking opportunity's to buildout my friend base and keep that community oriented feeling alive. It's a good feeling everyday to be greeted with smiles, friendly personalities, and the security of knowing that the people here have your back. read more

Great Space! The Community Organizers (especially Morgan and Ed) are very helpful. Booked a conference room for Sunday and just had a small delay with the elevator pass. Building Security was able to take care of it (Thanx John). The community events are very helpful. Good place to meet and collaborate. Clean Conference Room. read more

I've been working from here since December. It is the best place ever. I love the community, I love the networking, I love the fun parties and how much they treat us! On my birthday the entire staff wrote me a birthday card, and got me an awesome gift. This is by far the best thing I've ever done for my business! read more

I don't usually do this but after my experience with WeWork I felt compelled to disclose this information to potential future customers. I'm an attorney with a solo legal practice that rented a space from WeWork on the 7th floor south western side of the building with a window, called an exterior office. I was very excited about the concept of a shared workspace and loved the design of the place. The sales professional seemed knowledgeable and professional. The first issue occurred during the initial tour while talking about the lease term and pricing. The sales professional kept stating the rent would be X the entire tour. For each space "oh yeah it will be X per month or for this space it would be Y per month". Well it turns out the Rent is x for the first 4 months then Y and Z for the last two. Y and Z are greater than X in this example it was $1,000 greater. Rents at WeWork are not fixed but more like an Adjustable Rate Mortgage which increases over time. This was only disclosed at the very end of the tour not while discussing rent numbers while in the actual space which I found misleading and dishonest. The second and most troubling issue occurred when I went to set up my space the first day and get some work done. My office on the 7th floor window on a 60-degree day in in February was a sweat box. There was zero airflow whatsoever. I had to work in one of the meeting rooms, which they tried to have me use a credit for. I told them that must be a joke and I would not use a credit because I was forced to use an conference room because there was no airflow in my office. The staff assured me that it was due to the floor just being opened a few days earlier and it would be taken care of. Two days later I go back and the office is the EXACT same. They didn't do anything to remedy the situation yet assured me it would be fixed. On both occasions, I had friends and potential clients with me who experienced the lack of air circulation, air conditioning and the resulting heat in my office. Great first impression. At this point I told them I wanted out of the lease as adequate air flow is one of the first items in the Agreement. They offered me a different office but I was more than frustrated with the issue and their handling of the situation. The representative offered me 2 months instead of 6 and my full deposit back. I found this unacceptable based on the fact I was never delivered the work space I Agreed to rent. A space free of any defects or deficiencies, adequate ventilation, airflow and free of other HVAC issues. This regional higher-level employee told me that this is a problem everywhere at WeWork. You are telling me that a company that specializes in shared workspaces doesn't understand that offices with windows are going to get hotter than offices on the interior? I was forced to accept the reduced term since it was obvious WeWork as a company and their employees were not going to do the right thing, let me out of the lease, refund my deposit and all payments to date. They offered me a different space for the remaining month but at this point I was done wasting my time and dealing with WeWork and their complete failure, in my opinion, at being decent human beings and running a quality business. I have not been back and will not be spending a single second at that facility besides removing my things. The third issue occurred after I agreed and have documentation evidencing the new agreement of 2 months at the rental rate of X and the return of my deposit. I was billed an additional $940 for no reason. Allegedly this has been taken care of by the company but I have yet to confirm that with them and am waiting until the end of this month when I vacate to get everything in order. I have an email from the higher-level representative stating it will be refunded. The fact that this even occurred is potentially fraudulent and at the very least embarrassing. I never authorized a charge of an additional $940 and they tacked it on to my rent. The fourth issue occurred when I referred a friend to WeWork (obviously before the company and employees showed their true colors). The friend mentioned me numerous times on the tour and repeatedly said I was the person who referred them. I was not granted the referral for my failure to not send WeWork my friend's email prior to them renting space. That is the most backwards and insane referral policy I have ever heard. Not only that, once again, a well run and ethical company would have said "of course you get the referral thanks so much!". WeWork...well they said you didn't follow the appropriate referral procedures, which are ridiculous, so tough luck. The concept is great. The execution is terrible and the customer service is even worse. I hope that me posting this alerts prospective clients to the potential issues with renting an office at WeWork in San Diego and the type of customer service you will experience. read more

I've already wasted so much time emailing back and forth with this company, so I'm going to try to keep this short... I got an email that stated: "Congratulations on winning one complimentary month of office space from WeWork! Thank you for entering the #WorkHappy Giveaway with WeWork, Poppin & Cater2.me. While you were not one of the grand prize winners, you were a finalist of our giveaway! Let me know if you would like to claim your free month of office space and what location you would prefer so I can confirm it is available. Also would this be just for you or potentially your team as well? Looking forward to speaking further! " After 2 tours, and several emails back and forth with 5 different people, I learned that to claim my prize, I have to pay for a membership. This was so un-organized and such a frustrating experience. Running a promotion and calling it a contest is not cool. The contest rules didn't say purchase was required to redeem prize. Being told I need to pay $1,575 to claim my free month, doesn't make me feel like a winner, and it definitely doesn't make me want to support this company by joining. I feel like I was scammed, and treated like my time is not valuable. I would have been happy with a hot desk for a month, and they wouldn't even offer that to me. read more

I have been here since the first day of opening. It's been nothing but amazing! The coffee is great, the different draft beers are awesome, and the space is amazing. I have never met a more friendly staff than here at wework! Everybody is super helpful. And they really go the distance to make sure that people like me have a valuable experience here at wework. It's only been 4 months, but I've already made valuable connections by being surrounded by amazing people and entrepreneurs. I have never been more motivated, and my business is growing as a result. The staff also hosts a lot of events that encourages members and non members to connect. I have done so through many taco tuesdays, omelette breakfasts, bagel bars, parties, etc. I am definitely staying here for awhile :) read more

I have had a hot desk at WeWork B Street since January and absolutely love it! I moved to San Diego recently and transitioned into remote work for the first time. Before finding WeWork, I was working between home and numerous coffeeshops, feeling obliged to leave or buy something new every couple of hours. I wasted so much time in the commute and rarely kept regular hours. At WeWork, I have found not only a great office space, but an entire community - staff and members included. Working remotely, or being self-employed, can be lonely. Through WeWork, I feel like I have gained a whole new set of coworkers, whom i am excited to see each day and to whom I feel accountable to show up for (even though we do not actually work together!). Between the free cappuccinos, tea, coffee, and beer always available - not to mention the free food from almost biweekly events - WeWork is for sure worth the cost! read more

Very interesting environment, I've never been in a co-op style office before. You get the feeling walking around the office that other WeWork business members don't really want to talk or socialize with new people but at the same time seem almost lonely. Kind of like they assume others might be too busy to talk but secretly want to know what your startup is about. Overall though the office is very work friendly as it is quiet and easy to get work done. I like the glass walls and whole ambience of the place. The staff that work the front desk and clean the place seem kind and caring, you can tell they enjoy working there. The only thing I would recommend is that they upgrade their coffee beans used in their espresso machine, they are pretty terrible (Try Starbuck beans please). read more

I've been at WeWork since day one and it's been a total game changer for me. From the new friends and mentors I've met, to no longer having to worry about coffee shop wifi, to dominating the staff (after hours!) on the ping pong table, I love my spot at WeWork, and have recruited many friends to get a space there as well. The staff are awesome, Taco Tuesdays are awesome, and the community has been super helpful. Highly recommended! :) read more

I visited the place for a tour within the last two months and have been meaning to write a review. Sadly, I was disappointed with my experience. It's a beautiful place. When I got there for my Tour and Free Week, I was told by a young man that was hanging out with another man on the couch, that he can't offer me the free 1 week to try because he had to leave early on a Friday- like noon- for a business meeting and couldn't allow me to work at the site unattended on a free 1 week pass. I spent about 40 minutes there trying to send an email since I was expecting to work there for the day- starting my free week- but then was rushed out because he had to leave. I had scheduled my tour and free week prior to arriving. I was very concerned with the lack of professionalism and vibe. I wouldn't want my clients walking into a place with "receptionists" who seemed awfully too casual like they behaved. It seemed more like a hangout then a professional office management. I was told to come back next Monday for my free week, but of course, never returned. I didn't feel comfortable.. Also, the chairs in the "anywhere desk open area" were quite uncomfortable minus the booth. The lighting wasn't great either. If I were to buy, it would be in the reserved desk area or a private office but when you factor in the cost of growing your team/office, it quickly adds up to a ton of money for not a big space. Still searching for the right place.. read more
