Why would I pay WeWork's Hot Desk for $220/month when I could use a public library or coffee shop for free?

Ok maybe some coffee shops may have loud annoying music, but there are still community college / local universities everywhere I sit for free.

WeWork works because many autonomous individuals still have the need to have an office... a place to get work done. Also because clients wouldn't meet you at the library or coffee shop for a meeting.

Why wouldn't clients meet at the library or coffee shop? There are plenty of coffee shops that aren't noisy. And if not, you can book a quiet room in the library too.
