Certifications

We issue stars to coliving spaces in a similar way as hotels — non subjectively — for actual facilities at the property, not for how 'nice' it is nor reviews. Operators are required to self-certify that their facilities are as described, plus meet both expectations and needs. This is free and non-exclusive. Explore all spaces with stars

There are two fundamental facilities evaluated:

• 🎪 community the best where a facilitator holds a weekly family meal, encouraging and oragansing activities, else at least occasional events such as an outing togther and games nights
• ⌨️ workspace the best having multiple workspaces, quiet for focus and casual coworking, else an ergonomic bedroom desk
