No Showers in Al Sawfa Except in Nap Rooms?
If I am reading reviews correctly, the First Class lounge only has complimentary showers if you are able to obtain a nap room, and no other showers? The Business Class lounge has a shower area if I am correct?

Al Safwa has other showers according to this post from just over a week ago.

I remember taking a shower (very disappointing for a first lounge) without going into the nap room. It was at the same place where you register for the nap room.

I recommend you get someone to show you the way because it's a bit of a maze in there. Leave a paper trail too, because if you're like me you'll find yourself walking round in circles trying to get out again.
Be aware that while it's very clean, there's nowhere to sit other than a low luggage bench and there's no WC within the shower room. Because the ventilation's rather weak, the humidity's very high after your shower so drying off takes a while. There's no WiFi signal in there while you twiddle your thumbs self-desiccating. I did get a reasonable 3G signal in there though if you have roaming capabilities.

.. its not only weak ventilation, its the absence of any effective positive exhaust ventilation and air conditioning throughout the QATAR lounges' shower stalls .. a persistent, perennial disgrace..for paid QATAR premium pax and status holders for the other lounge shower stalls in DOH, as well..
