I just spent a month at the co-living so here’s my experience: This is my 2nd co-living, and my stay was overall positive. I liked the people I met, and we did fun things together. However: The management seemed a little disorganized, eg, many people had check-in issues, and I also had to wait a while before I was given the check-in code which I had to self check-in with. The cleaners would randomly clean your room without any notice or schedule, and only every 2 weeks. I let them know that I would appreciate a heads up, but they entered and cleaned my room the next day without notice. I wish they organized more community activities. They do organize a morning surf, brunch (bring your own ingredients), community dinner, but wish they planned more things in the city/evenings. We had to self organize a lot. There wasn't laundry in the building, they said they will get a machine in a few months, but I've heard it's been an issue for over a year. There is a laundromat nearby which works but is a bit annoying to use. There are 2 buildings, one is a lot nicer/social, but you can go to it if you are staying in the other one. The one I was in (madelena) was much more basic. The walls are thin in both building so you can’t really hang out and talk after 11pm. The coworking space was generally ok, but it got pretty stuffy/hot. There was no AC in it. I think overall the image of the co-living looks different online from what it is. I think it's expensive for what you get, but I met some nice people and had an overall good time.
