When I first entered Platform, I greeted the person at the front desk and let her know it was my…read morefirst time in the space. I was expecting a mini tour, things to know about the space, a quick list of rules, etc. Instead, I felt like I was bothering her. She didn't move, she just said, "the kitchen is that way" and pointed to her right. I spent the rest of the day slowly walking into hallways and rooms, wondering if I was intruding on a private workspace or if I was entering a phone room. This place is very, very quiet. Even whispering makes you feel awkward. I was with a co-worker and we were whispering quietly to each other after walking in. I was saying hello, the usual greetings. A woman nearby walked over to tell us that we needed to not talk because she was trying to concentrate. I was so irritated that my coworker and I up and left. We worked the rest of the day at a nearby coffee shop that was warm and friendly. I'm not sure if whispering is banned in the main work area but if so, I didn't see any signs and we weren't given rules. I wasn't sure if I should have defended myself or if I was actually in the wrong. Overall cold and frustrating vibe for me. Will stick to coffee shops in the future.

I've been working from this office space for over a year with a dedicated resident desk.

The office has a great friendly vibe, largely because of the people who use the space, and they've done a nice job of supporting networking social hours.

Located in the Hoxton hotel, this coworking space is so nice! It is quite busy and many of their…read moreoffice spaces look like they are rented out to a handful of folks. They have two levels - the first level features a large lounge-like space with a coffee bar. Patio space is also available on nicer days. There are a few phone rooms available and there is also a communal working space that is designed for quiet working. The rented office spaces are also surrounding this area. The second floor features a smaller lounge and more studio spaces so working space is more limited. I was able to find a few good spots to work from, however, they don't have big tables available outside of the communal quiet space so it isn't a spot to really lay out all of your work. Wifi was great and there are light refreshments available while you are there. I would recommend trying a day! Also perk for those of you with dogs, this place is dog friendly so you can bring your dog to work! They have a green area on the second floor.

(if you know what I mean), this is nothing like that. It feels much more professional and it does feel like I can concentrate more into work without distractions. I would recommend to anyone needing space to actually work.

I was happy to find a private office there. Location is fantastic and offices are great. People from Platform are responsive and always on top of any request.

However, a few things happened in my room that made my one night stay disappointing was: 1. My tv did not work. I tried to play Netflix and it played it for like 5 mins and then my tv went black. It kept doing that. 2. The first time I used the restroom the whole toilet paper holder fell out the wall. And there was no way to put it back without the constant falling. Other than these two things my stay was a great experience'

Aw dang. You never been to the Study? Babies, you gotta get out your house and get your work on…read moredown there. Seriously, if you're in the market for a coworking spot you gotta do yourself a solid and give the Study a slide. This place is the tops. You know how hard we work? Pubert can work. But sometimes working at home can just get us all crazy in the head. That open bottle of wine from last night is calling. The cats are screaming -- it's like, kitty, I just fed you and you still hungry? Babies, we just gotta change out of our softpants, put on some bigboy slacks, and get to work. For those of us that work for ourselves, having a place like the Study all local and stuff makes it so easy to please those clients. Our clients happy, Pubert happy. This dude that run the thing, Andy, the guy is legit. Andy'll take care of you. He keeps the Study real nice. Fast internet, lotsa desks and tables, quiet atmosphere. And listen, babies, this dude made us some pour-over coffee. Yeah, you heard that right. Dude busts out the Chemex and makes us coffee. We had to do a doubletake. We judge a coworking space by how much work we can pound out. And babies, you'll never believe how productively the Rose & Company rocked it while at the Study. Got them proposals out, them numbers crunched, the clients pleasured. With time to spare, we even busted out for a quick slurp over at the Goose Island tap room that is literally on the same block as the Study. Can't beat that, babies. Gimme them hops! Maybe you see us there next time you come in. Pubert all over the country these days, but Chicago is where we hang our hat. And when we home in Chicago and need to crank out some work, the Study is our spot. Convenient and quiet. That's our jam. Now get to work!

Free range is perfect not only for renting out a working space, but also a party space!…read more I attended a baby shower in their office space, and it was a surprisingly beautiful venue! There were couches to lounge around on, a full dining room table, and plenty of standing room around the kitchen area! Having a kitchen space allowed the hosts to serve warm, mulled wine, ice cold sangria, and straight-out-of-the-oven appetizers! They also have an employee on site at all times to deal with any problems, which is a nice perk to ensure a flawless party. I'm not sure about pricing, but I would definitely inquire for my next large party!

The space is simply stunning, with lots of windows letting in plenty of natural light, beautiful high ceilings and freshly painted white walls. It was easy to transform it from a workspace into an elegant and serene venue by adding high boys, linens, flower arrangements, balloons, and a few other personal touches. We were able to fit approximately 70 guests very comfortably, and the acoustics were great for our DJ and live band. The owner, Liane, was very accommodating. She reserved our preferred date for us, she maintained communication with our event planner, and she allowed us access to the venue the evening before the event to setup, which was extremely helpful. We were very grateful that we were able to reserve the space for a Sunday afternoon, when street parking would be free. Our guests had no difficulty finding the location or parking, and many commented on how beautiful the venue was. Oh, and there are several bathrooms-- all of them clean and well equipped for your guests (when I was looking at other venues, I noticed that is not always the case, but it's so important-- so I wanted to be sure to mention it here). If you're looking for a space to host your next event, be sure to check this one out. You won't be disappointed :)

We wanted a professional office with a more neighborhood feel that is accessible to our south side Chicago clients. When University CoWork opened last year, we immediately closed our expensive downtown office and got a $95 flexible membership, and then upgraded to a $295 dedicated desk. This allows us to do occasional work on the south side of Chicago. We now have a professional presence, and can meet our clients at our office closer to where they work and live. I love the phone and meeting rooms. Great technology. We are able to offer our clients parking and coffee in our beautiful new space. Our firm also hosts investment events in the University CoWork boardroom, classroom, and event spaces. The video wall with intrgrated speakers is a crowd pleaser. The first financial services firm in Woodlawn in decades, I particularly enjoy bringing knowledge related to investments and retirement accounts to the neighborhood. Dozens of people who have attended our talks have learned about and set up tax-friendly retirement accounts as a direct result of being exposed to this information. We have also hired people from Woodlawn, and patronize south side vendors as much as possible. I strongly recommend University CoWork to anyone looking to grow their business. The facility and business / nonprofit community are unmatched. The other members have complimentary areas of expertise. Many have become vendors, clients, and friends. I have learned about branding, how to build business credit, social media, and even how to use art to engage people. The $50 virtual office, private office, shared office, membet-only events and socials, and communuty events are unparalleled.

Unprofessional Treatment During Admission Process I had an…read moreunfortunate experience with the founder of Draymond Washington during an admission call. The interaction was extremely unprofessional and left me feeling disrespected. Instead of receiving a warm, welcoming, and informative conversation about the club, I was met with rude behavior and dismissiveness. I understand that running a social club can be stressful, but it's important to treat potential members with kindness and respect. This call was a stark contrast to the positive image I had of the club before. I hope the leadership takes this feedback seriously and works on improving how they communicate with prospective members. For now, I can't recommend this club based on my experience, as the treatment I received does not align with the values I would expect from any organization. I will also write a public review about this. I have also blocked the founder and your company from social media as the experience was so bad I would never want to be related to it. Thanks, RD Chemist
