Nothing wrong with broad street and the canal areas. Generally it is a hole though, so you are right.

Abu Dhabi and Doha are indeed similar in certain regards . They're both full of overweight expats with phones strapped to their sides in places like The Captains and leather faced menopausal women in cheap shoes doing brunch.....


Abu Dhabi is a better city though .
