Isn't that what i said matey. The EK villa folk are good, but the less salubrious areas of Satwa/Al Badaa definately bring its problems to those villas. Break ins, plus much else.
Jetkopite, its a lottery the house allocation, if its a risk that it might break or make your time here, don't come. However, you may get lucky, toss a coin...
