Thanks to its central location, getting around from the apartment is easy and convenient. The Mahane Yehuda light rail station is just a short walk away, connecting you quickly to the Central Bus Station, Jaffa Street, the Old City, and more.
Most major attractions in Jerusalem are within walking distance, including the Shuk, the city center, and even the Western Wall. Taxis and buses are also easily accessible nearby, and street parking is available but can be limited — we recommend exploring the city on foot or by public transport to fully enjoy its atmosphere.
