It's Day 498 of working from home.
You roll out of bed, make your daily cup of kopi o kosong and drag yourself to your plain-looking desk.
You appreciate the distance between your bed and your desk, but not so much of that familiar drilling noise your friendly neighbours have started since 10am. Or any noise, tbh.
If you need a break from your usual desk situation, various spaces are now offering conducive work environments at affordable rates.
Yes, you don't have to break the bank to enjoy a change in your work environment!
We take a look at some of the cheapest co-working spaces to work at.
TL;DR: Cheapest co-working spaces in Singapore: Hot desks, free flow of food & drinks below $5/hour
In this article, we take a look at co-working spaces that offer day passes so no commitment is needed.
There are also monthly memberships available at these locations, which is more budget-friendly if you're looking to work somewhere for an extended period of time.
We've also included some packages which are slightly above $5 per hour because of how value-for-money they are. ?
