Beautiful co-working space. Attended an event there and loved the layout of the entire space.

I liked the coworking space but wasn't using it enough to justify the (increasing) cost. I had a really negative experience when I went to cancel. I tried to give polite notice 30 days in advance, per my contract.

Unfortunately, WN unilaterally attempted to make changes to the cancellation terms, extending the notice period from one month to three without seeking the specific consent of members to adjust this specific term. This is a violation of the Alberta Consumer Protection Act. I sought very much to resolve this amicably but am disappointed to find that I was unable to do so. If you go to cancel, please know that if your membership predates ~summer 2024, they will try to impose terms that are different to those in the contract you signed. Even if you log into your portal and look at your signed 'Contract' today, again, those are not the terms they'll try to hold you to.

I think they'll reply to this review saying that they rolled out these adjusted T&Cs legally and that this is "like a gym membership," but if you review the Alberta Consumer Protection Act (specifically see Bill 31, and the 'Unilateral Amendments' section) you'll see that this is not true. This type of agreement is indeed a contract, and is governed by Alberta consumer law (as are gym memberships). Even sections 24 (Updates to Terms of Use) and 25 (Notices) of their own contract don't allow for them to update substantive terms like cancellation periods via a mass Slack message that is no longer visible to anyone, and didn’t explain the change in the first place.

I wish them the best of luck and hope that they update this term in a legal and transparent way for other members of the community going forward.

There are many places to choose from if you want to try co-working, but the vibe, community and the space at Work Nicer are second to none. I toured around and found all I needed at this space: closeness to the train, downtown address, friendly and professional community, helpful community curators, kitchen (beer tap and coffee are nice add-ons!), plenty of desks, and a few other cool features like bikes, ipad check in for visitors, and unlimited printing and board room access (within reason). Try it out. It's way nicer...!

Excellent space for meetings or working when you need offices space. Great spaces to suit any need. Free coffee, tea and root beer to boot (and beer and cider if that’s what is needed).

What truly sets Work Nicer apart is the community. The people here are friendly, supportive, and genuinely interested in each other's success. The staff go above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need, and they frequently organize events that foster both personal and professional growth. Whether it's a workshop, networking event, or just a casual get-together, there's always something happening that brings people together.

One of the things I appreciate most is the flexibility. With various membership options, it's easy to find a plan that fits your needs. Whether you're a freelancer, a startup, or part of a larger team, Work Nicer can accommodate you.

Conveniently located in the heart of the city, Work Nicer makes commuting a breeze. There are plenty of great restaurants, cafes, and shops nearby, so you're never far from whatever you need.

Probably the best co-work space in Calgary. I did a trial here and fell in love with the atmosphere and different work spaces available at the location. The staff has been really helpful and they always go above and beyond to make sure everyone feels at home.
