J	John Hogan on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing space, great vibe but quiet enough to be productive.
S	Samantha Richardson on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I love the vibe/atmosphere of this CSI and the salad club is always rocking!
E	Empfarseer on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Regent Park's co-working spot. 2 great meeting rooms with tons of natural light
P	Prachy Mohan on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Really cool space that holds interesting free events and talks. Pretty accessible by TTC as the college streetcar stops right in front. This place is in Daniel's Spectrum which is a really cool building to even just checkout.
D	David Saraiva on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ CSI is an amazing organization. It's a co-working collective for businesses and charities who care about leaving the world a better place than they found it. The Regent Park location's staff are absolutely wonderful (like every other location), they are kind, patient understanding and great to work with. If you are an entrepreneur in Toronto and care about more than just making as much money as you can, no matter the cost, then you should check out CSI (any of the locations) for sure.
S	Steve McCann on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The community at CSI is great and world class. This location has a great common area with a kitchen and outdoor patio! It's a bit quieter than the other locations, which adds nice variety. Across the street from a community center and pool, which is a huge plus!
C	Conrad Hall on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This place is fine when you know where you're going, but it's hell your first time. There are no signs to direct you to anything. The place is on three floors, and there's almost nothing on the first floor. That's mostly common area for sitting and chatting. On the bright side, there is a piano. Some of the kids - yes, kids - who come here play and/or sing very well. It would be cool to have funding to pay kids to play and sing. They're that good. 2nd Floor is a school. I've never gone here just because I'm a single guy. Who wants a single guy wandering around an elementary school environment, right? But the elevator has stopped here a couple times. All the kids always look happy and seem to be having fun. 3rd Floor is a shared work space. I know this is all the rage, but it mostly sucks for getting anything done. It's noisy to the point of being raucous. There are also meeting rooms on this floor. Those are very good. They have projectors mounted at the ceiling, and there is lots of natural light in the rooms. Plus the overhead lights are quite good.
C	Chris Allen on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Potentially a great space with interesting people however upon arriving for a scheduled orientation/tour (with previous registration) after speaking with someone from the welcome desk nobody seemed to know what was going on or was ready for the scheduled appointment. I waited about fifteen minutes observing as everyone was busy in their own conversations before I decided to leave and carry on. Disappointing but hopefully a one off experience.
