But the B&B floor is separated from the host's appartment 1 storey above. yes im on the premise most of the time, but I'm super busy around the house doing many creative jobs or tasks,renovation and cutting hair in my hairstudio in the garden, so I would prefer to be contacted by (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) or email/text message rather then calling me. (unless of emergency) I usually reply promptly to messages and if you have any request I will follow it up or I will make sure my assistants will help you if I'm not on site.I'm usually at home most of the time. I live in gofool, taxi drivers know my location as "gufull" or "gufool". It means locks or secluded, infact gufool is almost in the city center but very green and calm, because it has a way in and a way (Website hidden by Airbnb) car traffic at night ! I like my walk in the water garden(land mark) 4 mnts walk from the b&b. There is Some kids rides and bumping cars or swans to feed or birds in avorys.. its a nice jogging spot early morning between the palm trees and bougainvillea flowers too. Taxis are not far from home,5 mnts walk to wave them to stop by the main road, or we do have regular reliable taxis numbers. Bahrain offers a very interesting national museum with next to it a stunning brand new opera-house (ask me for the current culturel program or events) The old pearl-merchants houses of Muharak island (airport island) must be seen and visited with interesting local coffee shops in the souk streets. Bahrain also holds the Formula1 Bahrain grand prix race every year in april. Next one 24th april 2016. I like to visit local handicrafts shops as cotton weaver, lovely hand made cotton to buy. Near budaya village. Ask me more about local little restaurants, which are delish and inexpensive. House directions Tell the Taxi driver to go to gufool if you are not driving. The nearby well known landmark is the fast food D.Q (dairy Queen) in salmanya or gufool (area 312 ). The First speedbump of the 3 you should count is between the 2 mosks at dairy queen (1 mosque with blue and yellow dome on your right and 1 white tall mosque on your left touching dairy Queen ) . Drive into this road (1219) which starts at dairy queen carpark and go straight between RABAH STUFF COLD STORE and ALWAZAN HAIR SALON .now you just passed the first speedbump AT COLD STORE. Continue straight and Pass 2 more speedbumps and turn left After THE 3RD BUMP JUST before the blue modern building CALLED IRIS BUILDING into 1224 then my street will be the first on your right AT the corner of Al MARJAN LUNDRY (URL HIDDEN) house 788 is in that street next to the blue road sign "dead end street". SO @ D.Q then pass 3 speedbumps then first left and then first right . My tel is +(PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN). Uber taxis application is efficient and cheaper than local taxis.Also Bahrain public transport company provides brand new air conditioning and free wi-fi bus with a wild network around bahrain. From the airport you take the bus going to Isa town and go out at "salmanya hospital" station, its then 8/10 mnts walk to my house, if you have heavy luggage we can pick you up at bus station with a vehicle. If planned in advanced. Free safe parking in a quiet small dead end street front of the house.
