3 months in Dubai for a young guy

I originally posted in the Night stop forum but it was suggested I try here...

I was wondering if anyone could help me help my little brother. He is not in the aviation business but rather, he is a 21 year old Quantity Surveyor. He has just got himself lined up with a 3 month placement in Dubai, starting in May.

Given a choice, he opted for the cash only package rather than flights, accommodation, etc. included. Now the little bugger needs to find somewhere to stay. He only wants something as basic as a bed, shower room and access to a kitchen as he is trying to stretch the cash package as far as possible.

Can anyone suggest somewhere for him to look? He will have access to a car so it won't really matter where the place is. Alternatively, do you know of anyone that might like a young flatmate for a few months?

Thanks for your help.

Don't know what to suggest about places to stay but if he's got the time tell him to go to the Robbie Williams concert next month. Open air, beer every where, a good crack'

Get tickets at Virgin Mega stores in Dubai.

Went for a concert there last year, good laugh .

I'm sorry guy but this is primarily a forum for professional pilots. Yes, we do discuss other issues but it is not an information blog for the general populace. Use Google or another search engine please. Thread closed.
