Consejos para la ciudad
Facilidad para moverse por la casa
Bus or Uber are the best. Parking in the city is available,
Bus 125 from the Airport Terminal stops right opposite the house!
The Orange Line bus leaves from there and goes directly into the city Bus Exchange. It's a 5 minute walk to the corner of Nicholls Road and Halswell Road, where the bus stop is situated.
