Qatar housing

Loren 2005:

Received an eMail telling me that I would be given one month at a hotel, then would be expected to provide my own accommodation as they would start paying me my allowance (12,000 for DEC).

The utility allowance (400) is not included in the 12,000.

That is all the information that I was given. It does say in the contract that company housing is provided at their discretion.

Hopefully us newcomers can put something together for those following. We all know how difficult it can be to find accommodation in a foreign country especially while gearing up for exams.

Thanks for the comments. Will avoid the ZigZag. We are looking at the Pearl. Would you give me an idea of the commute time to the airport (max, min, and normal)? It looks looks impressive on the 'net. Are the construction and facilities OK...

Besides the balcony beer call, is there any social activity in the area. Hate to leave my wife alone with my beer and with nothing else to do..

The store does stock brands other than American beer I hope...?
