Hello,
Thanks for your interest in renting my spare room.

The apartment is three bedroom flat and i will like to rent out two rooms.

The apartments is situated at 100 shaftesbury road, brighton, brighton and hove BN1 4NF, quiet but very safe street in the heart of Brighton. Brighton train station is just 5 mins but most parts of brighton are also close enough to go by foot in under 30 mins.

I am looking to live with like-minded people. Please let me know if you're interested so that we can proceed in your rent.

Have a nice day.

Thank you for posting this up goger83. Did this person ask for money to be sent by Western Union?

The final paragraph does read more like a profile from a dating site than an advert for a room for rent.
