Its popularity is further increased by the large number of charging connections, and there is usually at least one free seat, so you do not have to worry about taking someone else's place while working for hours.
A hely népszerűségét tovább növeli, hogy rengeteg töltőcsatlakozóval rendelkezik, és általában van legalább egy szabad hely, így nem kell attól tartani, hogy az órákon át tartó munka közben mások helyét venné el az ember.

on gyakorikerdesek.huHowever, my favorite place's (California Coffee Company) locations are unfortunately full of university students studying during exam periods, and often I go there in vain because there is no seat.
Viszont a kedvenc helyem (California Coffee Company) üzletei sajnos süli időszakban tele van ott tanuló egyetemistákkal, sokszor hiába megyek oda, nincs ülőhely.
- Seats: hard to get
- Laptops: welcome
