Entry restrictions for citizens and residents?
Last evening, Family Plaza and Beach Plaza reception staff insisted that all rooms were occupied. After I persisted, they stated that rooms and Thai girls were available but strict management guidelines dictated that rooms should not be offered to Bahrainis or resident expats (like me). Could someone please confirm this?
I managed to get a room at another apartment block somewhere off Exhitbition road which had in-house Russians (BHD 35 ST non-negotaible plus BHD 25 for a standard room per night); the Arabs and Thais had left.
Perhaps a local restriction.

Sounds gloomy but I can not confirm or deny. I would be interested to hear whether this is a local condition adopted by that hotel or a general restriction.
Dubai or Bahrain during Ramadan?
Living in Doha - get cheap flights every week out of here during Ramadan.
I have experienced the overdulginces of Dubai.
If I just want girls and alcohol at a cheap rate - which is better during Ramadan?
Was thinking of heading back to Dubai since it is so obvious there ... but maybe Bahrain has more to offer?
I just want to find nice girls and drink beer. Can I do that in Bahrain over ramadan over a weekend?
Cant in Doha.
Experiences/prices welcome.
