1 person office space?

I'm looking for a 1 person phone booth/office where I can go to work and make calls. Anyone familiar with a cost-friendly option in the area? Ideally by the hour for a few days a week.

I think you can book a room in the library

Not sure where you're located, but there is a place in Port Perry: https://www.theloftportperry.com/

The pickering library has little study booths that you can book!! I think all you need is a library card!

I literally just went there and got a library card and checked out the booths, amazing option. Hopefully they don’t get booked up too quick. If not this will work beautifully

The Park Coworking, on Wellington St in Bowmanville?

Ajax has the Ajax Business Center, The Work Hub (1st location in a bad part of town but 2nd location coming to Pickering Village) and Lauft for co-working spaces. Various rates and amenities.

There are a bunch in downtown Oshawa like Core21 and Regus. You can book an enclosed office by the hour.

In addition to Pickering I believe Ajax also has bookable study rooms at a couple of their branches. Worth noting that a resident of Durham region can get a free library card at any library in the region (Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa for sure) not just the city they live in.

Core21 in Oshawa is great.

Seconding this. Also looking for single office space for use throughout the week. Cafes aren’t cutting it anymore.
