Where To Have A One-Nighter According To Times Of Oman

Looking to get "lucky" in Muscat but don't know where to go? Let the Times of Oman help you with that problem.

"For the man on the (constant) move, checking-in into ‘a home away from home’ is the usually most desired after a hard day’s work. Serviced apartments, not surprisingly, are usually their preferred choice. This trend, of late, has seen a soaring popularity in Oman".

This is part of an article published by the Times of Oman today titled 'Homely comfort away from home'. But what caught my attention was what the story was actually about and what angle they chose to take.
The article talked about the increase in demand of hotel and apartment rooms. And spoke more about hotel apartments. Even with this very detailed article, the angle that they chose to go with was 'homely comfort away from home' and started off with the previous paragraph. It didn't sound much like homely comfort, it sounded more like ho*ny comfort.

"While there are only three three-star hotel apartments Muscat is yet to have either a four or five-star hotel apartment property. Most of the properties are in the one-star and two-star range".

Proves my point further, doesn't it? Why would anyone wanna pay so much for a one-nighter?

"The Sultanate’s rapidly-growing corporate culture, big spurt in IT activities and boost in tourism is spawning many new lifestyle trends here. A short night-stay at a serviced apartment and then moving on the next morning on ‘business as usual’ is catching up the fancy of the corporate world here.

Ya right! Blame it on the "big spurt in IT activities". Like geeks can get that lucky! Psshhhh...
