Office 2013 or Office 365 for internet cafe

Hi Everyone,

My friend has a internet cafe with around 15 PC in it. He would like to buy MS Office for each computer for customers use. I have few questions regarding a cost and licencing of Office software.

1. Can he use Home version of MS Office (365 or 2013) in this situation if he doesn't need programs that are included in Business version of Office?
2. What is going to be cheaper to buy; 15x Office 2013 or subscribe Office 365. What would be approximate cost of Office 365 for 1 year and is it going to be any cheaper if he buys like a 3 years licences? 

3. What is the difference between Office 365 Small Business and Small Business Premium. Which one would be more suitable for an internet cafe?

Many thanks in andvance
