Transportation
Since a majority of our Guests are out-patients at MD Anderson
Cancer Center (MDA), the MD Anderson Shuttle provides
transportation to and from various MD Anderson Hospital locations for
MDA patients. Currently the MDA Shuttle comes to Hospitality
Apartments once every 15 minutes. Below is a picture of the MDA
Shuttle. Shuttles that come to and from Hospitality Apartments are
labeled with a light blue tag, as shown below, which also shows
Hospitality Apartments as one of its stops. The MDA Shuttle picks up
Hospitality Apartments Guests and their Caregivers in the driveway
outside the front entrance to Hospitality Apartments. Be sure to look for
the MDA Shuttle with the appropriate light blue tag.
As a Guest at Hospitality Apartments, you have four transportation
options:
- Your own car
- Houston Taxi Service
- M D Anderson Shuttle
- Walk
If you bring your own car, we will provide a car pass that will allow you to
park in one of the two apartment parking lots. Houston has a good taxi
service, but the companies are not always on time. The Texas Medical
Center is about seven blocks north of the apartments and walking is an
option if you feel up to it and the outside temperature and weather
allow.
There are several different MDA Shuttles with different routes. When catching the MDA Shuttle in front of MD Anderson Hospital, be sure to ride the MDA Shuttle with this sign on the it and request to be taken to Hospitality Apartments.
