Great article in Allwork by Kate Tatersfield that does a good job summing up short and simple what the benefits of shared work spaces are:
Greater sense of well-being
Increased productivity
Opportunities to connect with others (collaboration, community, social)
She also covers what to consider when looking for the space that will fit you best.
