    Hey all, I'm starting a job in dublin in june and i am wondering where is a good place to stay. The job is in Park west business park. I was hoping to stay in a place that isn'r too fair from city but at the same time will not be a big hassle to get to work every morning. Any idea's/ recommendations?

    Walkinstown, Crumlin, Kilmainham, Inchicore are all close to Park West and could be Cycled in 20-25 minutes, don't know the Area good enough to comment on buses but the Luas runs down Kilmainham and Inchicore to Longmile road and you could walk from there to Park West. If you wanted to be in town you could try around Smithfield as there is a luas stop there.
    But i'm not sure how much of a walk it is from Long Mile Rd to Park West, Whats exceptable for me may be long for you. You could buy a banger of a bike and lock it near the luas stop and cycle from the Luas to Park West.

    Also try looking at Dublinbus.ie, The 79A goes to park west so look for a place along it's route. See what other buses go close.

    If it was me buy a bike, much more reliable you have a more flexible search area and you can also get fit.

    Clondalkin is right beside Parkwest too & there are 2 or 3 apartment complexes right on the road to Parkwest. Have a look on Daft.ie to get an idea of prices.
