    To be fair though. 1/10th of a bottle of liquid soap for free. And the towel matches the tiles.

    And the entertainment center is pretty state of the art..

    There are a lot of big, old houses round that area 3 and 4 storeys that are all converted into 'flats'.

    you could hang the sheets off the top bunk and have a fort


    better than the one where the kitchen was under the bed i suppose...

    Thats like something out of resident evil! It doesnt state the price. Maybe it a if you live through your first night you get to live there for free sort of deal.

    By the way love this thread. Currently looking for apartment and nice to know I have these type of properties as a fall back!

    That one in particular is really really depressing.

    The chair facing the wall with the table / tray tacked onto the wall is actually just in front of the bunk bed where the bottom bunk has been taken out and replaced with an arm chair.

    Wow.

    I think we have a winner for the most depressing, Irish people should be banned from furnishing flats, suicide inducing, no wonder so many Irish people drink to excess, kill me now flat.

    That modification of the bunk bed, where you have to step over the wood that used to hold the second mattress to get to the armchair is just... I don't have the words.

    The shelf tacked onto the wall.... I can just imagine the landlord saying to a previous tenant "You want a desk to study on? Sure, dont mind Eye-key-ah, I'll install a grand wee desk for you, and I'll only charge you a few quid extra for it"

    I wonder did they glue the dryer to the wall or something, because my washing machine edges forwards a few millimetres after a few cycles. If it was on top of something it wouldn't be long toppling off.

    The worst thing about it is its not all that cheap! Something like that would suit a factory worker who cant find 5 people to share with. If it was in Dublin City centre you might get a student in there for €200 per month!

    If it was in Dublin city centre 200 a month would be a bargain. Try more like 400.

    A friend of mine lived in a place in D4, close to the luas, close to the dart, 350 a month. It had seen better days(in the seventies), but all in all it was cosy enough, apart from the fact that the bathroom and toilet were shared with another flat. So when he went for a shower, he had to bring with him, his shampoo, shower gel, towel, and keys, to unlock his 'front' door.

    Some of these are just criminal :(

    I feel like evicting the dog from his gaff/kennel and sittin an aul crying chair and a bed in it, would be better than some of these holes.

    Do any of you here ever feel like phoning the 'agent' and bollocking them out of it for selling hovels?? I know I do. havent done it though. Yet... :)



    Good man Dr Bollocko for saving the pics :)

    This shelf is hilariously grim. Imagine the tenant coming home each night and having his dinner facing the wall? It is like some movie about convicts being reintroduced to society.

    Was going to have a look at this last week. Figured it was going to be sort of **** but I'm only going to be living in Cork for 3 months so I figured it might be worth a look.

    The whole road is like a bombsite though. Cans and refuse scattered all over the place. I counted 31 satellite dishes on 18 houses. Didn't feel particularly safe around there on my own at 1pm nevermind 1am. Googled the st. and pretty sure someone died in a house fire there in July so there's another reason to avoid it.
