Yeah, that's what I had in mind, a kind of satellite location. An experiment to compliment the other spaces and learn from. Given that, the limited hours don't bother me so much. It comes with the territory of a mall space, and I also think this part of Europe is just more accepting of limited service hours, including for accessible office/work/community space. There are many successful coworking spaces in the area with limited access hours, and those limits also bring some benefits, such as the ability to have a full-time community manager, fewer issues with security, and even some degree of imposed work-life balance for some of the members (including myself) who I know struggle with leaving the space as early as they "want to" (in the deliberative, rational, delayed-gratification sense of "want", as opposed to the impulsive, addictive, instantaneous gratification sense of "want" :).
