I stayed in an apartment rented through Airbnb, which was about 10 minutes by foot away from the Casa de Colon, at the intersection of Calle Cano and Calle Mateses. The apartment has 3 bedrooms. It is owned or managed by Alvaro, in Las Palmas. He is very accommodating. You could probably stay with a poodle. There is a taxi station in Calle Malteses, 100 m away from the apartment. Depending on the traffic, it should take between 20 to 40 minutes to the ferry terminal. We prebted a car at the airport. We spent 2 days in Las Palmas and drove around the island to see every interesting sight. You cannot do that without a car. But it may be cheaper to rent a car for a few days rather than bringing one from another island. These is an Avis agency next to the private harbour, in the center of Las Palmas.

I bet you have to take a taxi; but there are a number of local buses available nearby. I personally use the application called whatsinport you may find on the net. This application has information about 1200 ports all over the world, including the Las Palmas Gran Canaria - with a map as well! The port is close to Parque de Santa Catalina where you also find a huge shopping centre called CC el Muelle
