F.A.Qs
1- How is the security of the space? Can I leave my things?
We have taken security measures to make the space as safe as possible: We have two cameras, the last person to leave sets the alarm, and the building also has its own cameras and alarm system. However, if you are concerned about your equipment, we recommend getting your own business insurance. Our insurance will only cover the things that belong to our own business and there are no insurance plans that would allow us to cover member’s possessions.
2- How do I lock up when I leave?
Instructions on how to lock up are given during the orientation. Further instructions are available at the front desk and a video tutorial is available through this link
3- How many members do you have?
Around 60-80 active members each month, depending on the season.
4- What kind of members do you have?
Industries: Tech, creative, and commerce mostly. However, we do not discriminate. We just look for open minded, nice people that understand the concept of working in a shared space.
Types of employment: A mix of freelancers, entrepreneurs, small businesses, and remote workers
5- How fast is your internet?
As of August 2021, we have upgraded to the Telus Fiber 1 gig plan. We have e-thernet ports available as well as a backup router so you would never have to worry about losing your connection! Feel free to come by for a free trial and test our speed 🙂
6- Who owns the space? Do you have other locations?
The space was started by Sabrina Chammas, who was 27 when she decided to start her dream coworking space. She wanted to create a feel good work space, so nice that you would rather spend your days at work than at home. She considered expanding to other locations several times but she just loved keeping L’Atelier a boutique coworking space with a unique and intimate vibe. L’Atelier is one of a kind!
7- What's your pet policy?
We're dog friendly if the dog is well trained and not distracting. We allow up to two dogs to hang at the space at the same time. We start off with a testing period. If the dog is cool and everyone is cool with the dog, the adorable creature gets to stay!
8- What's your phone call policy?
We have two phone rooms that you can just pop in and out of for phone calls + two meeting rooms that you can book + you can also take calls in our kitchen. You may also take your calls in the open area as long as it doesn't bother anyone around you.
9- Do you have parking or bike storage?
We do not have dedicated parking for our building or bike storage. However, here are your options:
Car Parking:
Here is info on our recommended parking lot off of W Pender Street and Cambie. The rate is $170-180/ month which is cheaper than a monthly public transit pass. You can also park there for $10-11/ day.
Bike:
You can bring your bike up the stairs and lean it over a wall (as long as it's not in the way of others). We also have a deal with Mobi so you can get a bike sharing membership at a discount and not worry about your bike.
