    Hi all,

    Does anyone know of any short term rentals for professionals. It could be for 4 night / weekly / monthly.

    It seems to be dog eat dog in the rental world of Galway at the moment :( and I am finding it very hard to get a suitable place.

    I am thinking that I could rent short-term until i can suss things outs.

    If anyone has any ideas, it would be really appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Did you look at daft.ie short term rentals?
    Also look at the regular ads, many won't have a limit at all and you pay per week.
    Also ring the places in Galway Advertiser, check the classifieds on Weds after 3?pm

    Thanks biko. Yea I am watching daft like a mad thing but to no avail yet. I am either getting no response or the places are gone. Thanks re the Galway Advertiser info. Will check it out.

    When you say regular ads, what does that mean?

    The regular ads are the daft ads for Letting (in case you were only looking under Short Term).
    Particularly outside the city centre the landlords are much more easy since demand is less.

    a lot of the hostels do specials for working people. They are supposed to be a grand set up.

    I know of a B&B on Tuam Road that do 'room only' lets for a few days per week. It's a few hundred metres from the N17/N6 junction.
