Re: Advice on accommodation
Nice enough for me though 
- It's a great area, Karama and Bur Dubai have all the shops, bars and eateries you need, and the creekside is good for strolling/running of an evening. 
And it is where the poster will be working, and being close to work is a major plus in Dubai.

Re: Advice on accommodation
Hi
Thanks again folks!
I had a look at apartments in the Old Town - on average they start at
130K - I guess thats the norm. I will look at karama and Bur Dubai also.
Am I correct in understand the majority of apartments are let unfurnished?
Many thanks

Re: Advice on accommodation
There are some fully furnished places about, which is what I took, as my stay in Dubai is of uncertain duration - I move from contract to contract, so tend to do a year or two here and a year or two there.
