Very easy to get to from the airport. It’s very close to a major rail station in the city center which make for pretty easy access to all the major sites. There are closer sites within reasonable walking distance as well! The neighborhood is a little dirty but can easily be navigated on foot with little worries. As it is in any city, staying vigilant and aware of your surroundings helps. We really liked the restaurant at the end of the block too! Very comfortable inside and our host was very accommodating and friendly!
