The other thing they did that annoyed me was mess up my phone number and redirect my calls God knows where for a couple of months. Which is where their "we can mess up as much as we like without compensating you or refunding your fees" clause kicks in.

I just opened an office in Aberdeen city centre with them. Suits me as its serviced and easy in easy out with all utilities etc covered. Used Regus in the past too. No problems with them.

I leased from Regus, and would never again :
1. They force you to pay to redecorate,
2. They up the rental every quarter
3. I had to email every @regus.com email address I could find on Google to get my deposit back.
Don't pay for phones or Internet. Use your mobile / mifi / tethering.
I now rent with 4 other contractors a rough office, for peanuts. For fancy meetings etc, just rent a Regus room for the day...

I'm after a small 2/3 desk self contained (as in private with walls/partitions around it) office or space in central London.
Anyone share their experience?
What do you actually want to know? Regus are quite good, their prices are OK, but they're a large organisation, so you'll inevitably find some people who love them and some who hate them. I have no intention of leaving them, they're OK, but they could be a little more organised in their billing, and letting me know about costs.
