That is using the default configuration, without any custom shortcodes added to the tabs. If you make a new CPT and visit the Tabs for that CPT, that is how it is setup
https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs-v2/places/tabs/

The Details template for that page is the default. If you visit the Pages settings and click on Details -> Default content you will see the settings. The only item used in the archive page to show the tabs is gd_single_tabs

GD Post Meta can be used to display the entire description.
GD Post Content is fr an excerpt. It is more useful on Archive Item templates than Detail Page templates because of the Read More link.

GD Single Taxonomy is a separate element that is not part of the tabs, is used to show tags and categories, and is part of the Details template. GD Post Meta can be used to show cats or tags instead of both.

There is not a shortcode for reviews.

For that situation we recommend a two-prong solution

Use the Franchise manager to allow your visitors to add listings in each market they serve

Translate the plugin so that the TEXT of the street address field makes it clear that, once they set the address on the map, they can change the street to any value, even the name of the city.

To help your users be discovered, also make sure to use the GD Locations widget to show links to each location so their listing will be shown.

Location pages are special and can display multiple CPTs, if that is the way you want to go. But, in your case, it seems like dividing them by category on the location page would work better?

Yes, slugs are global

We have tried to make Geodirectory work for a wide variety of use cases and for addresses to work, at this time, it requires all parts of the address. In the future we may be able to find a way to make “Region” or “Country” specific directories, but this is the way it works at this time.

As Guust has mentioned the Street part of the address is used to lookup values but, once a value is set, the street value can be set to any value so obscure a specific streetaddress.

The Franchise manager is our go-to solution for listing in multiple locations. Some well known sites follow a similar approach, saying that each market is actually independant. We tried to go one better than that by linking franchise listings together to make them easy to add and edit.

GDV2 does ‘random’ a bit differently. A random sort order is applied for 24 hours, then resorted again. You can change the 24 hour interval to something different with this code snippet.

add_filter('geodir_rand_seed','_my_geodir_rand_seed'); 
function _my_geodir_rand_seed($rand_seed){
$rand_seed = get_transient( 'geodir_rand_seed_custom' );

		// if we don't have a transient then set a new one
		if(!$rand_seed){
			$rand_seed = time();
			set_transient( 'geodir_rand_seed_custom', $rand_seed, 4 * HOUR_IN_SECONDS );
		}

		// validate
		$rand_seed = absint($rand_seed);

    return $rand_seed;
}
