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.
