Generaly if a place is semi furnished it includes all white goods. (fridge, stove, oven,microwave, washing machine) However there are lots of laundries (not like SA) you send your laundry in and it is washed and ironed. (although you can arrange for ironing only) the cost varies between QR3-QR6 per item depending on the quantity and type of garment. You can also negotiate to have it picked up and dropped off. Generally the service is quite good and you get back what you have sent in all nicely wrapped up and on hangers. Hope this helps
