The page opens with the answer for those dates. - To see everything that is free right now: https://staydublin.ie/explore?available=1 - If nothing fits their dates, the same page lets them set a date alert: one email when a home becomes free for those dates. - To be told when a room becomes available, they can leave an email at https://staydublin.ie/explore#first-refusal - To ask a question directly: info@staydublin.ie ## Live availability for AI assistants Assistants and agents can check live free rooms instead of guessing (public, read-only, no key, no personal data): - MCP server (streamable HTTP): https://staydublin.ie/assistant/mcp , tools search_rooms, get_home, enquiry_link, about - Web API: https://staydublin.ie/assistant/api/rooms?move_in=2026-11-01&months=3 , described at https://staydublin.ie/assistant/openapi.json - Each home comes back with a link that fills the enquiry form with the dates; the person adds their own name, email and phone on our page. ## What to include when they enquire Brian, our accommodation manager, can answer in one reply when an enquiry has: - the move-in date and the leaving date (or how many months; three months minimum) - how many people are moving in (just them, a couple, or a group) - the room type they want and their monthly budget - whether they are studying or working, and where - every home they like, in ONE enquiry (the form has an "Also free for your dates" list to tick) You can fill the form for them with one link: add any of from (move-in, YYYY-MM-DD), to (leaving date, YYYY-MM-DD), group (2 to 30), note (a short message, URL-encoded) and also (other home page numbers, comma separated) to a home's page link.
