    Update: Three people looking for one room mate to fill a four bed house in Moyglare. Sorry for the confusion and late notice but landlords are a nightmare to deal with this time of year. They are looking for a deposit tomorrow of around €350, if anyone is interested please let me know asap. Ideally we should have a room mate by 6pm today....

    Hey there, just sent you a pm there.

    Uhhhh... Is it just me, or do 90% of the houses at daft.is not accept students? I found like two houses that are shared, and the one in Maynooth is probably already taken. Waaah >.<

    Anyway... Any... Um, offers? Or help, rather. I mostly just keep to myself and study and do stuff on my computer/tablet >.<

    Sorry if this is like the lamest post in the forum's history. *is somewhat new*


  • Registered Users Posts: 4 LightOfAnima


    Ummmm... Nevermind x.x

    Considering that this is the NUI Maynooth forum I'm going to take a wild guess and say that she and her friend are looking for rooms in Maynooth...

    facepalms :) but some details probably would be helpful, they might be looking far and wide, if they had transport or how far depending on public transport. Might keep my eyes peeled here, might have some free rooms in the future, be handy for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2 DearMissClaire


    Yeah I'd love somewhere in the town of Maynooth but I'm on a very tight budget :)

    Hello,

    I am moving to Maynooth from UK to work on NUI as stuff. I am looking for temporary accommodation until I find an apartment to rent. I want to avoid B&Bs as they are more expensive i think, and they are trouble for some-one trying to establish himself as opening bank accounts etc.

    Are there any guest houses or rooms in houses available for say around a few weeks to 1-2 months or so? I tried some on daft and gumtree but not a lot of luck yet. I am professional in 30s, quiet and also a good cook and good company, with lots of international experience

    i am looking forward to move to Maynooth as i have read many great things for the community there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 851 ✭✭✭JayEnnis


    It was very hard to find accommodation for everyone this year. You might have some luck now that the international students staying for one semester have left. I had a few friends that had to get places in Leixlip this year. Try the accomodation thread and also have a look in the accomodation office in the student services building on North campus.

    Thanks JayEnnis
    what other places are close to Maynooth with the bus, how low long does it take to go between them and Maynooth and how much will be the costs of transportation? Is it a solution getting the bus or it is not convenient at all?

    Leixlip is about 7 minutes away on the train and costs about 5e return I think?

    I've been in Maynooth two weeks, stayed in temporary accommodation (see the rooms available, it is usually 30 euro but sometimes like tonight they have cheapest 52 euro per night) and just this Mo got a new accommodation. I was lucky to find one on the residence office website. Check the list they have and call everybody from that list, otherwise use daft which is considered to be the best option though at the moment there are very few propositions out there. Meanwhile get ready to live in South Campus and pray them to have that College room (30 euro) available.
