Moving to Riyadh Soon.

I have an offer in the IT domain from Riyadh. The office is in King Fahd Road - Al Ulaya. Could someone give me their experience about living around this place or where I could look for studio apartments that are either fully furnished.

I read very mixed reviews about Riyadh and the life for Indians. I grew up in Dubai and know of lifestyle there but have been in India over the last 5-6 years and now this move. The pay offered to me in Riyadh is great as per market standards(atleast as per Google and ppp calculation), but in general would like to know tips and tricks and how I can find an accomodation soon after getting there.

Any advice here would be really helpful !!
