To add to the other comment. There is a lot of flexibility in being able to go month to month. Not only desk count but location. Leasing a unit even a small office is a lot of hassle in silicon valley. Takes a chunk of capital and a lot of time to find a location.
Additional these places can be attractive for remote workers and freelancers. Its offers a community of individuals in same/similar industries. Clean bathrooms, usually basic amenities.
Edit: Just to add, I worked at a co-working place in downtown San Francisco. I think we spent maybe ~1 year there. Started with a couple desks, ended with maybe 8 desks and then we moved out. It gets expensive but it offers a level of flexibility that we found valuable at the time.
interesting, i couldn't see this scaling past 3-4 people. i figure the dedicated desk might be worth it, or at least space to get out of the house and network, but for 2500 5 people can probably do better even with flexible arrangements
