Fine. You leave the hotel. There’s The Malls shopping centre, which is fine for grabbing a new phone charger. And there’s the lovely Milestones Museum—like stepping into a Victorian time warp. Seriously, check it out.
Or, you know, you could just stay in the hotel. Watch telly. Order room service. The curtains block out all light. Pitch black. You could sleep until noon and forget the outside world exists. That’s a win in my book.
The little details that matter
The WiFi is free. And it actually works. No buffering. No “sign in again after 20 minutes” nonsense. You can stream a movie or doom-scroll with abandon.

The air conditioning is aggressive. You can make the room feel like a refrigerator or a sauna. Total climate dictatorship. I love that level of control.
