Access to the math department
From the airport to downtown
There is a shuttle service between the airport and the main train station (named Toulouse Matabiau).
It runs every 20 minutes and takes around 20 minutes.
If you want to go directly to the math department, the best is to ride to "Jean Jaures"

To hotel Trianon, walk 50 meters more or less downwards along avenue Jean Jaures,
and turn right on Boulevard de Strasbourg, right again 100m further into rue Denfert-Rochereau, and left into Rue Lafaye where
