I think it's a reliable mean of transportation here. It's a good idea to commute with monorail when the traffic was jammed. \n\nBut I think cabs, buses and cars are much better when traffic wasn't bad. I bought a 24 bus ticket for $5. And I didn't have to walk long way through hotel to the monorail stations.\n\nAlso renting a car isn't cost much, there are free parking in every hotel here.
