Convenient in terms of what?

I've always found this to be a most absurd argument.

Lissen folks, why not stay at a hotel with top-of-the-line amenities and exceptional service over a propertry with okay rooms close to, uh, "good" shopping?

Cabs are CHEAP in SIN -- like SD$4-8 to go from the CBD to Orchard Road (which I think is overrated as a shopping mecca).

Unless walking is a huge issue, I say stay at the property that gives you the most service-bang for the buck. So what if you can't stagger to the nearest air-conditioned mall on Orchard Rd.?
