Once upon a time, there was a hardworking craftsman [the tenant] who wanted to rent a beautiful, large castle [the office building] that shone with gold from afar. He was promised that he could work there in a fantastic way [modern facilities and services]. He was incredibly excited, as if he were expecting a birthday present [very high expectations and anticipation upon moving in]. But when he moved in, he quickly realized: The castle looked completely different inside [reality didn't match the promise]. The promised treasury of finances [the accounting department], from which the correct invoices were supposed to come, was a complete mess. The figures on the invoices were often wrong [incorrect invoices and payment requests]. He tried to reach the treasurer [the finance department], but no one answered [no reachable finance department]. Sometimes the treasury even took too much gold [rent] [erroneous rent deductions], and then there were extra fees for that [overdraft fees]. The craftsman became angry and cut the direct debit so he could pay his rent himself. His office, which was supposed to be spotless, was never cleaned. There was a hole in the wall, and the walls were dirty. Promises were made to repair it, but they never were. The coffee makers in the castle were often broken. And when they did work, the milk supply was often empty or the milk was sour. The pantries [refrigerators] contained old, forgotten food scraps [expired food] that no one bothered to remove. The stairs and hallways [common areas] looked dirty, with many stains that no one cleaned [inadequate condition of common areas]. Even the furniture [office furniture], which was supposed to be new, already looked old and broken [furnishing defects and late delivery]. The internet [Wi-Fi connection], which was supposed to help send messages quickly, was very slow and kept dropping out [poor internet connection]. The handyman had to use his own expensive internet [had to use expensive mobile data]. When the handyman once carried a piece of furniture [furniture] that was supposed to be removed by the lord of the manor, a temporary community manager [a community manager] arrived. This manager quickly told him [unreasonable deadline] to return the piece of furniture immediately, even though there was a large, empty room next to it [space for temporary storage]. But the worst part was: no one in the castle really knew anything and no one was responsible [no real contact persons or people in charge]. There was always only one "friend for everyone" [community manager], who wasn't allowed to make any decisions himself [no decision-making authority] and always had to pass everything on. In just five months [five months' tenancy], four such "friends for everyone" changed [four changes of community managers], and each new one had to learn everything from scratch. So all the questions and problems simply got lost [requests went unanswered], and the handyman was completely on his own [groping in the dark]. All these many problems and broken promises made life in the castle unbearable. The handyman absolutely had to leave [extraordinary termination] before his work and his enjoyment of it were completely ruined. He suggested: If he is allowed to leave without causing trouble, then he will not tell anyone how bad it was [waiver of claims for damages in exchange for an amicable termination of the contract].

We've only recently joined Regus, and the transition was a bit bumpy. That's why we'd like to especially commend the Community Manager, who did everything from the very beginning to make us feel comfortable. He's very friendly, always helpful, and immediately available whenever we have questions or need anything. – Thank you so much!
