Moving to Qatar - where to stay?

By Ashley66 on Mon, 12/05/2008 - 10:22am

Can anyone advise me on where should I get rent. Insyaallah I will be taking up a job with UPDA. I'll be given a housing allowance QTR5K.
Can anyone advise me where should I look for accomodation within that budget.

Thank you and regards.

thats very low budget. please take note, 5k its only give you one studio flat. good flat for bachelor will cost around 7k above and good villa will cost you around 12k - 25k. better asked them to give you company accomodation.

Everybody is right everybody is wrong it depends where you stand.

the question is not WHERE should you get rent. The question is IF you can get a rent for this amount.. and the answer is: GRAB the first BEST place that you can find for this price...
it's really law budget.. but you still can get a nice room in sharing accommodation or villa for this price

Milla's right about the accomodation. You may try to find some room or studio in Al Wakhra or in the industrial area. Good luck.
