Facilidad para moverse por la casa
Uber Taxi Moto Taxis
You can use Uber which is economical, they will try to ask you for cash , be adamant and say credit card only. The drivers tend to cancel when they don't get cash payers. Be prepared to have a few cancel on you before one arrives. You will not be charged the cancelation fee if they cancel the ride.
Moto Taxis are the cheapest about 50 pesos a ride. This may not be the safest way. If you are not comfortable , I recommend using taxis.
