My $800 mistake on a 'perfect' coworking space in Bali

I paid for a full month at a fancy coworking spot in Canggu back in 2019, lured by the photos of fast wifi and a pool. The internet was so slow I couldn't join video calls, and the 'quiet area' was right next to a construction site. I lost the whole $800 because they had a strict no-refund policy. I ended up working from a quiet cafe with better connection for a fraction of the cost. Has anyone else been burned by a shiny coworking space that didn't deliver?

Ugh, this is everywhere now. It's not just coworking spaces. It's the whole "pay for the vibe" economy. Like those tiny apartments with a fancy lobby but paper thin walls. Or the restaurant with great decor and terrible food. They sell you the photo, not the real thing. Makes you trust nothing.

Actually @lilyt90, I've found some real gems by checking reviews beyond the photos.
