FAQ
coworking service conditions
Why do I need to book a visit before subscribing?
We prioritise a stable, diverse and balanced community. A visit lets you discover the space, understand its dynamics and discuss specific needs.
Can I work at CRU for just one day or a few hours?
We do not offer daily or occasional passes. Plans are designed for regular, continuous use; the 10-day pack is the most flexible option.
How does joining the community work?
After a visit, we assess availability and how the person or team fits the coworking dynamics. Community management supports every new member’s integration.
Do subscriptions include all services?
They include access to the space and the services defined in each plan. Meeting rooms, booths, printing and studios may have limits or specific conditions.
Can I receive clients or hold meetings?
Yes, provided the rules of use are respected. For privacy, meeting rooms or the video-call booth should be used.
Is the coworking space quiet?
It is a focused workspace, but not a silent one. We seek a balance between concentration and social interaction, respecting different rhythms.
Are dogs allowed? Can I bring mine?
Yes. Dogs are common in the cowork. Animals must be authorised in advance to ensure comfort and good coexistence for everyone.
Can I start earlier or leave later?
No. The coworking space is open from 9:30 am to 7:30 pm, Monday to Friday, and from 10 am to 7:30 pm on Saturdays. It is not possible to enter before opening or remain in the space after closing time.
