Okay I’m sold. What do I do now?
Fill in the Get On Board form and we will get back to you as soon as possible. Please keep in mind that we are booked 2-3 months in advance so be mindful about letting us know about your plans early enough. After arranging the dates and all the details, you will fill in the Application Form, where you’ll have to provide us with the necessary information for our Background check. Yes, more information provided means an easier and faster background check process. After, we will ask you for a non-refundable $500 holding fee to book your spot which will become your Security Deposit if you move in. If you decide to not move in, you will forfeit this holding fee.
What is Co-living?
Co-living is a new way of living inspired by creative communities and collective experiences at its core. Starting with the basics, it offers shared spaces (living room, dining room and other areas for socializing), a sauna (kind of socializing, too), small kitchen, laundry room, and a backyard, hot desks and more. Using this space to bring everyone together, we are creating collaborative and fun environments that expose members to new people, new ideas and new experiences.
Specifically, what kind of common spaces do you have?
We have a big living room where we watch movies and dine together, a little kitchen, a huge backyard with a grill, sauna and laundry room.
Who is co-living for?
If you’re a native San Franciscan, it’s your new scene. If you’re new to San Francisco, it’s your home away from home. If you're an entrepreneur, it’s your future network. Co-living is for anyone who values the 3 C’s: community, creativity and convenience.
How many people live in the building?
There is room for 16 people living in the coliving across 3 floors.
How much does it cost?
We have a range of different rooms at different prices, starting from $1,500/mo up to $3,000/mo.
What is the difference between your room types?
The main difference is whether you’re sharing a room with another person or you have your own. The majority of rooms have a dedicated bathroom. We also have premium rooms on the top 3rd floors with amazing panoramic views of the city.
What is included in the price?
Your all-in-one monthly bill covers council tax, utility bills, wi-fi, room cleaning, linen changes, access to communal spaces, and our 24/7 on-call team to help make your experience as amazing as possible.
How long can I stay?
We highly value our community. In order to sustain it, we only rent our premises for no shorter than 1 month stays.
I want to move in. How do I secure my room?
In order to secure your room, you need to complete your Application Form and provide us with the necessary documentation to conduct the background check. The more complete documentation you submit, the faster we will move you to the next step. Finally, in order to secure your room after completion of the background check we will need $500 as a holding fee. It is non-refundable should you choose not to move in and is used towards your security deposit. That way, you have no hidden fees and the upfront cost is kept to a minimum.
How do I pay my rent?
Rent can easily be paid automatically each month via direct debit. This will all be set up when you sign the lease.
Can I decorate my room?
Make yourself at home but please don’t hammer anything into the wall. Any damage incurred will come out of your security deposit when you leave. Please speak to our Co-living Manager (aka The Captain) regarding this upon arrival.
Yes! We have an entire team in the building dedicated to exactly that. Room cleanings and linen changes are once a week. All the common spaces are cleaned 2 days per week. An exact schedule will be provided.
Is my room cleaned and my linen changed?
What is the length of tenancy?
We currently are offering month-to-month leases with preference for tenants who want to stay longer.
What happens to my contract if I want to leave early?
Since it is a month-to-month lease, we will retain whatever pay is left until the rest of the month. You have to tell us at least 1 month in advance if you decide to leave. Due to the amount of requests, we highly value the opportunity to be notified promptly and help someone else who’s looking into moving in.
Are there rooms available for couples?
Yes, there are rooms available for couples, starting at $3,000/mo.
Can I have friends visit and stay?
This is your home, so yes. If friends want to visit, they can. If your friend/guest chooses to spend the night in the coliving, we require them to pay for a $20 day pass for our co-working, gym, and sauna amenities. 1 additional guest per room is allowed if you are staying in a private dorm. Overnight guests are not allowed in shared rooms. You will need to email us about an upcoming guest - and then you’ll be all set.
Is there 24/7 security?
We have code access to the building and key access to the rooms. We also have surveillance cameras in common areas, but we’re not responsible for your belongings. So do not leave them unattended in shared areas or forget to lock your door.

Yes. Our Co-Living Manager (aka The Captain) will be on-call to sign for parcels that arrive when you’re out. You can pick them up when you're back.
