There was great shopping nearby, but it was about 1km away, and a map is needed. I would suggest using the e-bikes, traffic is usually congested, and the streets will send you in circles. The staff is great, the hotel is in excellent condition. If you stay long, buy the breakfast daily instead of everyday. Its good, but its nice to have options. You have to request room service ice, which is free, and the room service menu is not high priced. You cannot get a bottle or wine opener from the hotel, but don't pack one in your carry on bag either. lol! The TV menu was limited. Some good new movies, not rotated well. Some very old "news" stories for some reason. BBC news and Al-Jezeera were the only international live channels (sky news does not count, lol) I developed a fondness for CNBC somehow. Overall, it was a fine stay that could have been a little better.
