    You can use the museum audio or your own telephone with a QR code if you do this take your own headphones for comfort. Go really early before the crowds. You can’t eat on the island. Know as much as you can before arriving it will enhance your visit

    The audio tour is great!

    The audio tour is great! Everyone can enjoy this tour at his own pace. Also there are Park Rangers that will tell you more amazing stories about different aspects of the island and it's buildings.

    Everyone should visit at least once.

    Everyone should visit at least once. The history is interesting and the self guided audio tour lets you go at your own pace. Be prepared for a windy and chilly ferry ride there and back but the scenery is breathtaking

    I was actually taken there by my friend, as I hadn't planned to go there and if I has missed this, I would have regret this until the rest of my life! I was very surprised, how great Alcatraz - place and its' history is. Not only the travel there is fast and pleasurable, but being there and listening to the audio guide with recorded voices of prisoners and guards, while doing a tour inside the Alcatraz prison is unforgettable experience! Highly recommended!

    SIt on the top left part of the Ferry Boat on the way to Alcatraz for the best views of the Golden Gate Bridge (if not foggy) and the Island as you approach; bring a jacket/sweatshirt...you'll need it.

    Staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel was relatively simple from the outside, but the interior was very original and quite fantastic. The lounge was great, with many things to do for the entire family (table tennis table, outside grill for marshmallows, pool table etc.). The rooms were well equipped, and the photos matched the experience. The view of of the pier and Alcatraz was a big bonus.

    You can't get any better location for a hostel than this. It's waterfront where you could see the Alcatraz from the hostel window and lots of land to walk around to or relax. The fisherman's wharf is just a short walk. Our 2-bunkbed room has high ceiling making it airy and smelling clean when the breeze from the outside comes in . Breakfast is simple but good! Staff are helpful.

    This was a typical American motel, room was comfortable and clean but could do with a bit of a refresh and some TLC. The location was good for us although we did not appreciate how much uphill there is in San Francisco, so walking was not an option. We would recommend Alcatraz and the Big Bus Tour but avoid the Aquarium at Pier 39, the Science Academy in Golden gate Park has a much better Aquarium and lots else to see. Enjoyed the cable car but very crowded.
