Hotel cómodo y son muy amables al atenderte, recomendable.
Un rico lugar para descansar muuuy tranquilo y acogedor
3 day stay to snorkel mainly outside the bay for bait balls. No marlin but lots of sealions, Dorada and humpbacks
This is a nice little hotel to stay at while visiting Puerto San Carlos. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. There was a mini fridge in the room (to keep the cervezas cold), a fan, and a good sized bathroom with a shower. But, the best part about Hotel Alcatraz is the middle patio area, which is where the restaurant/bar is. Our awesome waitress, Carla, was there serving food and drinks from 6 am to 10 pm (or later). I'm not really sure about the hours, I just know she was always there when we were hungry or thirsty. :) The staff was wonderful. We will definitely be staying here again when the whales come back!
Trato cordial, buena cocina, muy limpio. Ambiente familiar.
Un descanzo muy agradable ya sea por trabajo o vacaciones
Es un buen lugar y acogedor, aunque las habitaciones muy pequeñas y sale muy cara si pagas con tarjeta a qué si pagarás en efectivo
Ein wunderschöner Ort. Unser sehr sauberes Zimmer war mit allen nötigen Sachen ausgerüstet. Das Personal und Maria waren immer überaus freundlich. Empfehlenswert: Das Essen, die Köchin ist eine wahrhaftige Meisterin !! Die Whale Tour haben wir auf Empfehlung des Hotel bei Dani gebucht, da wir so begeistert waren gingen wir 2x . Dani is the Best Tour Guide. Wir würden jederzeit wieder dort übernachten und sagen Dankeschön für die sehr nette Gastfreundschaft.
Patio molto carino, cibo vale il viaggio prezzi onesti dia a mangiare che dormire, camere, un poco datate, ma pulite. Noi siamo usciti con loro anche a vedere le balene. Ottimo
Buen lugar para descansar. En ocasiones tardan para enviar la factura.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
