I would suggest using Divvy.com to book desks and meeting rooms. You can invite the other people in your coworking space to access the calendar and it can handle payments too- so if a drop in wants to book a meeting room, they can reserve and pay for it through Divvy.
I am biased because I work at Divvy. :) If any of you try it, let me know if you have any questions or comments.
