Um.
Dublin Rental Investigator tweetz:
This property on Dorset Street was a Guest House now it’s ‘studios’ or ‘co-living’ thanks to [Minister for Housing[ Eoghan Murphy.
How many are they going to cram into 97-98 Upper Dorset Street, Dublin 1?
This is the reality of co-living.

.. does ‘studio’ now just mean literally a ‘room’?
new word for bedsit.
mark from spotahome looking at a bed with a toilet bowl and a microwave beside it, raises his finger to point at it, and says “studio apartment”
he deserves a good shouldering… :-)
hahaha. i actually recognise him and i can’t place him. from years ago, and it’s killin me.
It’s sounds shinier
yea it’s defo to try make a shoebox sound kinda cool. how he keeps a straight face while filming the gross tiny guest house room while calling it a studio i don’t know. goin up to the windows and showing the ‘view’ is comical, like is anyone thinkin “mm a carpark, that is a lovely view”
“a contemporary, urban view”
Oh I did my time in a lettings agency. They give pathological liars a good name.
yea i did design for one years ago. they used to have me photoshop mould out of photos of rooms and broken bits unbroken again.
Jaysus, I stayed in worse when I was a student.
But you didn’t pay a grand and a half per month for it though.
yeah for 50 quid a week
Love the mismatched bargaintown pine/mdf chic
“lovely big space” towards the end in the last kitchen shown.. ffs you couldnt swing a cat in it or even turn yourself around!
Does it say the price anywhere?
I looked it up on the website and they’re all minimum €1000 pm, including the triple bed room. I don’t know if thats €1000 per bed in the room or just for the room.
My 9 pounds-a-week bedsit in Rathmines in the early 1980s was one rectangular room overlooking a small garden. In a partitioned corner was a gas cooker with washbasin. A bathroom on the corridor was shared with two other bedsit renters. Heating was a plug-in electric fire. Central heating was then unthought of. I stuck it for about three years and didn’t go mad or try drugs. I never want to return to that sort of living.
“You’ve got a good bit of storage here”
Had to turn it off
Studio living or minimum security prison? That man has a neck like a jockey’s nether regions!
How would you even have the nerve to put your face to this… ‘lovely storage behind the bed (looks like it’s doubling as a headboard)
WTF can you store in those cube shelves? Like seriously
That’s where you put your cubes
Never ever fit shelves above a bed.
The reason why people like this TULIP will get away with this?????
Very simple – 166 TD’s in the DAIL and Quite a lot of them are Landlords themselves
A nice little earner
A thousand euro a month to live in a SHOEBOX and the TD’s do not give a damn
The Irish Daily Mail tried to get an exact figure
A simple Question – How many TD’s were also Landlords?
They did not get a single reply and that is why Spotahome will get away with it
