Do you mind sharing a flat? what condition do you accept living in?

If you want something for yourself without sharing it...plan at least 150-200 BHD per month. That's minimum

Furnished studios in prime areas can go 400+

Thanks for the reply, i will surely look for the economic accommodation or else leaving a job without proper saving will be of no use

Also remember that from 1-1-2018 VAT taxes are going to become effective along with electricity and water price increase.

So in case you're negotiating - make sure your rent covers utilities or else you're looking on 30-40 BHD extra on top of your monthly rent.
