Ground Transportation

For getting to and from the University of New Mexico, the best value is public transportation: "Rapid Ride", about 1.3 miles.
The nearest Rapid Ride stop to the Hyatt is about 2 blocks away: Route 766 at Copper and 5th (El Camino Real), near the public library. However, going west towards UNM the closest station is at 1st and Central, which is 2 blocks up and 2 blocks over from the Hyatt.

For UNM, you will want to get off at the UNM Station: Central and Yale.
