think twice before moving the EZDAN TOWERS

Yes, it's hard to get the room air oxygen level below 21%. But perhaps your breathing problems are due to mold or mildew in the apartment or some other allergen. Hope you feel better.

due to safety precautions (it is a high rise) they purposefully make the windows unable to open.

Giving the option to open windows in a tower block may increase oxygen, but may also lead to a few jumping out..

Then they can change the name to "suiside Towers"

Ban Spoon Feeding not Me

Ok all, if interested, I just spent the last 2 months at Ezdan... clearly I settled because I didn't realize what was out there. Was waiting for my flat to be finished until moving in and Ezdan couldn't accomodate me for another 4 damn days so I had to move.... moved into Le Grand Hotel (just off of Al Sadd Road) and I have to tell you - these hotel apartments are about 3million % better than Ezdan in every way. And, the short and long term rental rates are apparently better than Ezdan. Only catch is that there isnt a microwave and they aren't as fully stocked with plates/cutlery/pans, etc. as Ezdan but if you make a fuss, they react. Rooms are brilliant and big and big windows that actually open for air.
I REALLY wish I would have known that before heading into Ezdan (plus, its across from my office so wow... that would have helped!).
There's my two cents.

You've got problems, because obviously the ovens are electric..

Are there any ceiling fans ??

Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.

I recommend you that you buy an Air filter/purifier, I got the full size made by LG and it works fine. Make sure that all your air filters from your Air condition are clean thoroughly.

If you are living with Central Air condition, there should be thermostat to regulate the temperature inside your apartment, If not, you could always purchase a activated Carbon liner to be place in front of the Air exhaust panel.

Most of the time in any new housing complexes residual dust is build and mildew inside the ducts and walls after the construction is finish. You have to air out the house and clean it thoroughly.

Good luck.

You could spray-wash and wipe down with a sponge all the walls with a simple solution of clorox and water, that will kill the mildew permanently. Unless there is water leakage sipping through the cement.

May be you need some one to make A.R for you

stayed at a hotel in London once and asked for help to unlock the window to enjoy a bit of fresh air.
The "window opener" arrived with a key and a disclaimer that I had to sign stating that I would not hold the hotel liabile in the event that i accidently or purposely fell out the window.

You may wish to consider this system to acquire a bit of fresh air....

Tenants of Ezdan -: you people all ok? The amount of complaints and comments on QL is rather worrying...... we know that construction stamdards are generally poor but Ezdan seems to get top marks....

Believe me or not, the first room they proposed me was so:
sitting room and kitchen is in a flat and the bedroom is in another flat that you need to go out from your main gate and open another main gate to reach your bedroom.

I did not see any hidden camera. It was Like a jog.

britexpat.. you comment is brilliant :))
Another thing regarding Ezdan: When you have simple problems with bathroom or tap, you call reception and they say : " ok sir we are sending the engineer to check"

look at the luxary.. They are sending engineer for a simple maintenance.. They dont send Project Manager though :) It has happen to me and to a friend of mine whose living in Ezdan..

The enginneer.. Dont even ask about his reparing ...

I will probaly end in a tent :)

HAIR??!!OMG!! One of my many phobias! someone elses hair!! i had a fit the other day when I saw a large curly one in the pool!! YUCK!!!!

You managed to notice a hair in the pool ... I'm impressed..

Drac..

Is there an attached bathroom ???

Damn You, Damn You, Damn You..

I was going off on vacation, but am now thinking of moving into Ezdan, just to experience the "ambience" of the place.....
