Hello there is a train stop on the main road. The stop before the GA Commercial center. You will then have to walk up a steep(ish) hill 3-5 mins to massa sq (Plaza mayor)
I made you a quick google map......

Hi Phillip
Thankyou for your help.
Would that be the next train stop up from carabassi bars and shops?
I don't mind the walk as it's short, ,  but is the Hill so steep that we will be knackered? I will have a youngster with me.    I'm uessing there is a foot path.
Thanks again.....
Just an after thought... is the bus any better?

Its a bit steep. Not that bad. Yes to footpath.....bus would be the same...
Here's a pic...The stop is to the right of this so you have to walk back on you self, not towards GA center, cross road then up the hill (3-5mins max)
Yes its next stop after the carabassi bars.
