Before I came to Paradox, I had a dedicated desk at another coworking space. Unfortunately, this other coworking space announced that they would be shutting down June 1, 2022. After visiting a few other coworking spaces, I felt that Paradox had the right balance of price and location for me.
I officially joined Paradox in May 2022, and overall I like it here. I love the coffee and other amenities. It feels like an upscale corporate coffee shop to me. If I forget my lunch or plan on staying late, I like how there are three restaurants in walking distance (a Chili's, a burrito place, and a pizza place).
Since I have an online business (developing and designing WordPress websites), it's very important that I have a reliable WiFi connection as well as a place to conduct occasional Zoom calls. Although I take pride in being a "digital nomad" and could go to a Starbucks, public library, or anywhere else that has WiFi, it's also a very good idea to have a "home base" for running my online business (and to have a physical address different from my home address for my website, email marketing, and other places).
Paradox meets all of my business needs and "checks all the boxes" for me so to speak. I'm very happy with my monthly membership here.
UPDATE: as of February 2023, I ended up relocating to another coworking space. This place used to "check all the boxes" for me, but after they downsized and closed down the upstairs area, it has been a major challenge finding a private place to conduct Zoom calls. If you don't need to have client calls, and if you just need a place to work on your laptop, then it's a wonderful corporate coffee shop look and feel.
Our company has been renting an office at Paradox for over a year now, and it's been fantastic! It's a great location and everyone that works there has been so helpful and accommodating. Their conference rooms are spacious, comfortable, and have everything you need from an AV standpoint. I would highly recommend!
I was in the area waiting for the Thai restaurant to open. But I needed a restroom and a coffee. In a general coffee search, I came across Paradox- with some of the nicest people inside welcoming me to a complimentary cup of coffee and a beautiful clean bathroom, Thank you!! I promised to get the word out...great concept, hopefully the idea will resume soon. Bring people, including work environments back together with coffee. I'd come and use the space as a professional.
I love working at Paradox when I'm in San Antonio for the day! It's very close to the airport and has great amenities (coffee drinks, snacks, great vibe, music, charm, etc)...
