Answer:

Eight blocks south plus six blocks west

Explanation:

Start at the Hotel and draw the map Ruby walk (violet path in draw) and you will saw the blocks.

You can't walk diagonally, which is the fastest way, so you have to walk horizontally or vertically, like the light blue path in drow.

Now you count blocks. Starting at the Hotel, eight blocks south plus six blocks west, fourteen blocks in total.
