    They sure like that shower! :pac:

    I wouldn't like to sit up suddenly in that bed, be handy for answering the door though!

    If it was half the price I'd live there for a month as a challenge.

    I am totally and utterly fucked up of looking for somewhere.

    Price was previously €670 per month? Am I right?

    I have this shoebox on offer for €200pm, mobile, can be placed in a number of city locations....

    That is shocking. Am not sure what would be worse, living in a (barely) converted corridor or sleeping on a bed in a living room with someone else's traumatised small cat looking at you.

    Im sick of looking as well. Tbh if it was a double bed, I would consider it, because it is a good location. You could eat out most of the time. Lease 1 year minimum. Jaysus, I wouldnt want to enter into a 1 year lease though. It would be somewhere Id stay for a few months while I find somewhere decent.

    Wonder what possessed the LL to put the price up by 140 euro last month. Probably put in the kettle or something.

    It's not small, it's cosy. After a long hard day at work, you could come home and have a nice relaxing sit under the microwave.

    For serious? http://www.daft.ie/searchsharing.daft?id=747953
    One single bed located in a spacious living room available in a two bedroom apartment. That bed was usually for guests, but since we're barely at home and using the place, we've decided to let it.

    Please note that this is only for short term stay, between one month to three although this can be reviewed.

    The living room is well seperated with a door to the other rooms of the apartment; therefor you can expect a high level of privacy and noiselessness. Set of drawers are also available next to the bed to keep your belongings.

    Note that you will be sharing the apartment with two young profesionals (A guy and a girl) in their mid-twenties, and also a small cat.

    The living room is well seperated with a door?!? giving you a high level of privacy. A high level of privacy compared to where? A bedroom with no door?

    Seriously, is this a joke?

    Does anyone else suspect in that one that the set of drawers might actually be in kitchen units? There's no sign of them anywhere else in the pictures.

    You didn't quote anyone but if it's the one I'm thinking of, the bed is is the sitting room. They have a picture of a (relatively) spacious sitting room, then a picture of the blue chest of drawers and then they try to slip in the one where the bed is beside the blue chest of drawers.

    Actually if you read the thread you would see that that is the opposite of what is going on here.

    Rubbish. There was a recent letting for an apartment for €1,100 a month that didn't even have a washing machine. Who can afford that?

    Find me one post in this thread where someone has been a condescending prick towards someone who is on a shoe string budget. The general tone of this thread has been to mock landlords who charge inflated prices for substandard accommodation.

    As much as we make fun of the landlords for having the neck to advertise these places, I think this poster has summed it up perfectly:

    Would this be considered a joke? I find it quite funny.

    The address is the reason for the ridiculous price I guess.

    66Sqm for 325K, lol...

    Wow.

    Third level qualification is required as the existing house mates are all either professionals or post graduate students. We will do a viewing on Saturday and invite expressions of interest to be put to the other house mates, our preference is for a couple with good english or basic english but with a track record in other languages such as spanish, Italian or French. The social aspect to this house cannot be underestimated, however it is also self contained and quiet.


    What a fruity ad.
