When you take a taxi, would these phrases be appropriate?

Me gustaría ir a la terminal, por favor.

or

¿Me lleva a la terminal, por favor?

Thanks for your help.

I'm not sure what you mean by "terminal" but I tend to use:-

La estación de trenes por favor. La estación de autobuses por favor. El Hotel ............ por favor .

These always work well.

Your first sentence is correct but just a bit elongated for what is needed here and I don't think your second sentence is correct but no doubt someone more adept than me will explain.

¡Buena suerte!

I only add an "a": A la estación de.... - txustaboy, Sep 17, 2015
Thanks! in a book i've got it says terminal is a bus station - this could be wrong though. That makes more sense actually, think I was overcomplicating things. Thanks! - cobbler, Sep 17, 2015
In Mexico it's usually "central de autobuses." Not sure about Ecuador. - jtaniel, Sep 17, 2015
