  4. The WiFi is very reliable (I’m typing this out whilst on their WiFi). The seating is also abundant, with plenty of comfy leather couches and tables strewn throughout their space.

    it fails miserably at two key components of a good coworking cafe: coffee and wifi. HOWEVER… as it has gotten hotter in Berlin and there are hardly any cafes with AC ... I’ve had to reconsider.
