Haven't tried that yet. My assumption is that most companies would be worried about security/privacy OR just not be motivated by a few hundred bucks

Not to mention liability. What if you get injured in that office. Who is liable ?

Seems like we need something like a "split" lease – doesn't really exist for offices like it does for apartments.

Good idea. I've seen a few places doing this around the country (although in SF almost all hotels are unable to open). Hilton in Ohio charges $69/day though, and that's more expensive than a private shared office would be

Oh I didn't know bay area hotels were closed. But on the cost since they only need it a few days a week, I don't think the cost would be that high and is easier and more sanitary than trying to share one.

True, the cleaning could be challenging. Surprised I haven't heard of a startup offering mobile deep cleaning/sanitation. Could make a killing right now.
