Maria informs Tom about public transportation options, specifically mentioning a transportation that stops nearby. This is important for getting around the city, especially to places that are not within walking distance.
Two blocks away means that you need to walk past two street corners to get to a place. It's a short walk in a city.
Downtown is the heart of a city where there are many shops, restaurants, and usually tall buildings.
What does Maria say stops two blocks away?
A taxi
Maria mentions a public transportation option, not a private service.
A train
Trains don't typically stop at blocks; they stop at stations.
A bus
A bicycle rental
Rentals are usually stationary services, not something that stops.
