WeWork Golden Gate

Be sure to check out the wallpaper on each floor.

«They get it.»
Clean & secure digs with playful décor, well-​stocked amenities, helpful staff, fun neighbors, great views and good food nearby, that was close to transit, with reasonable month-​to-​month rates, good stewardship of packages, and lots of mixers and social inclusion… which was all quite difficult to leave. I really miss queening out along the long 6^th floor hallway which doubled as my own personal catwalk the one day every few weeks I would try to dress nicely.
We recently moved from this location for an offer too good to pass up, as we were otherwise content and not in the market for a new space. We really miss the friendly greeting each morning. Seriously. You know, it’s been months, but they still help ensure we get the bits of mail that haven’t yet updated to our new address. It’s really a kind thing to do as they process a LOT of mail, I imagine. =-)
So even way after the fact, this crew is super above and beyond. The whole crew. We especially loved Ernie, Caroline, Tim, Chia & Cruz, the people with whom we’d interact the most. Also, Uncle Jesse was quite dreamy, before he left.
The internet would have sluggish periods toward the afternoon. I know that they wanted fiber optic initially, but there is something about the market st transportation corridor (Bart) that makes it hard to bring it across Market to the north side. I don’t envy any PM completely modernizing an older building with inherent limitations. I know from similar project experience that such a thing isn’t always as straightforward as we’d all like. I always gathered, however, that they were aware, concerned and working on incremental improvements.
A note on the neighborhood… This is San Francisco, and that is the Tenderloin, and these forces are much bigger than the weight of any new arrivals. I’d encourage those in the market to err against throwing the baby out with the bath water. This place is so much amay. =-)
Just my little $ 0.02.

I’ve had a HORRIBLE experience with the personnel at WeWork Golden Gate.
I was an invited and paid attendee to a WeWork event yet I was unfairly targeted and accosted by WeWork personal and security because I was a person of color.
I traveled from San Jose to a tech event hosted by WeWork. I was apart of a Meetup group for this event, I was notified of the event and paid a ticket to attend.
I go to the WeWork Golden Gate venue unsure of the address and the security guard told me that this was the right place. I checked in with the security guard and the personnel at the Front Desk. They confirmed my paid admission to the event.
I go to the event and met my colleague and networked. An hour into the event, the same security guard singled me out and adamantly demanded that I present to my ticket to her.
My colleague and I were puzzled but I complied and gave her a print-​out of my ticket.
It turns out that Ernie Tovar, the manager of WeWork admitted that he monitored me and called security on me; he essentially profiled me as if I didn’t belong at the event or the building.
My colleague (who is a white male) questioned him why he wasn’t accosted because he wasn’t a Meetup member and he had not proof that he paid. I am person of color and I was intentionally targeted by Ernie Tovar.
I’m a 15 year IT professional of Silicon Valley. I’ve attended hundreds of tech meetup and network events throughout San Francisco. This is such an OUTRAGEOUSLY bigoted thing I have NEVER been so humiliated!
There are many work-​spaces in Downtown San Francisco. And there are better places in far better locations as well. I will NEVER recommend anyone to have an office there. I’ve cancelled my Meetup membership because of this situation.
WeWork’s mission statement is supposed to be apart being a positive influence to the community. So if the community doesn’t look the part then it’s okay for WeWork personnel to show bigotry and disrespect?

The building is beautiful. The conference rooms are functional, clean and logical. Each floor has a different personality but all have their charm.
The staff is absolutely fantastic (front desk to tidy-​uppers), I really can’t say that enough. Great job guys. Even the coffee is very likable, much better than your typical sorrow at other offices.
Nothing but great things to say about WeWork Golden Gate, if not the best in SF. 5 stars. Now if they could only fix that Tenderloin thing…

I’ve worked out of 3 co-​working spaces in SF and this is by far the best and fanciest. I believe that the costs may be a bit higher but are in the same ballpark as others for comparable services. The staff here is SO on top of everything from giving great lunch recommendations to lending you an envelope to working with the local police station to making sure all of your dishes are washed.
There are 7 floors and a lot of community events like brunches, happy hours, and company-​led workshops. I’d say there’s something at least once a week. The décor is urban fancy and washrooms feel like those of a bar with music and floor to ceiling doors for the stalls. The staff (Tim, Ernie, Caroline) has been super responsive to any need or question — usually addressing things within a few hours at the latest. The WeWork app is also easy to use and helpful for registering guests and reserving conference rooms.
There is a separate bike storage space next door that is under video surveillance.
The only things that would make this place better are getting more reusable dishes for people who bring their own lunch.
Otherwise, highly recommend if you can get in!

I’m not a member but just visited during a happy hour since a friend of mine works there.
Their amenities are nice — it’s got a rustic feel with brick and metal but you can also tell it was very obviously recently renovated and there’s some very hipster artwork and decorations on the walls and in the kitchens/​living rooms.
It’s pretty crowded though. The offices are back to back rectangles with glass doors. It’s what I imagine a very hipster dorm for startups would look like.

This is the best coworking space in town. Find here:
–Helpful, friendly and dynamic administration
–Awesome companies and people doing what they love
–Engaging community events and workshops
–Different games and different brews at each floor, or chill out room on the bright 7^th floor.
