Just an FYI...Sandbox Suites is 24/7 (as far as I know), has awesome parking and is generally pretty sweet. And, just a warning, running a space becomes a full-time thing for many. If you have clients, it will be a bit of a struggle to keep up both. We had to hire people to run our space, but then couldn't afford it, so now we don't have an ideal condition (CS doesn't run regular hours).
I agree that each space has it's own 'culture' - that's important and true.
