Really depends on your location. WeWork Berlin has absurd prices for the local market. The city already had plenty of great coworking spaces at half the price long before WeWork showed up.

Yes. I am digital nomading and the coworking in major cities in developing countries usually cost usd 100/mo, including free water, coffee and events. The WeWork places I checked were 2x-3x the costs and I can't imagine them to be that much better.

Having said that, 80% utilization is great and maybe catching all the premium market will work.
