Do they have non-stop flights to an area in San Francisco near Alcatraz?

Question by : Do they have non-stop flights to an area in San Francisco near Alcatraz?
Do they have any hotels there too?
Sorry, I’m a little interested in that awesome place.
Such history!

Answer by MadMan
You go to San Francisco airport. Alcatraz is an island without any hotels. You can only get there from Fisherman’s Wharf in SF so you will need a hotel near there.

What attractions(aquariums, museums, et.) near or in New York City are for a good price and are fun?

Question by abc: What attractions(aquariums, museums, et.) near or in New York City are for a good price and are fun?
Going to New York soon. Need to plan where we are going to. Planning to go to a Broadway show, the zoo, and Central Park already. Just need one more place to go because we want to have a great time. For at least 5 people. Can you also list some boats that are not much that go AROUND not in Ellis Island and Statue of Liberty. Thanks!

Best answer:

Answer by J J
You could ride the Staten Island Ferry. It doesnt go around the Statue or Ellis Island, but its pretty close….and free.

The Museum of Natural History was the most interesting museum Ive been to in the City (but Im not a huge museum fan). Its on 78th (I think) & Central Park West – right on the outside of Central Park. There is a $ 15 reccomended price, but if you go to the counter, you can suggest any price you want.

There are a lot of neighborhoods that have dicey sections. For example, there are some very nice and safe places in the Mission, but three blocks away there could be gang activity. (However, note that the gang activity stays pretty much within gangs; there aren’t random shootings.)

But in general, avoid the Tenderloin, Hunters Point/Bayview, most of the Western Addition, and south Mission.

Here’s the SFPD Crime Maps website where you can check out crime reports in various neighborhoods:

My friend, depending on your budget may I suggest the following link below.

http://travel.yahoo.com/p-hotel-477673-jersey_city_hotels-i?fromiy=1 (Hotels in Jersey City, NJ)

In regard to driving, there are several parking garages in Jersey City, near the PATH Train stations, where you can park your car. You can take the PATH Train, which is a small commuter railway line from Jersey City to Manhattan. The fare $ 1.75 one way person.

I’ve included a list and link of station with parking garages near to them.

Q&A: Can you recommend good restaurants near the Fedral Center sw metro in Washington dc or near L’Enfat Plaze met

Question by traveller: Can you recommend good restaurants near the Fedral Center sw metro in Washington dc or near L’Enfat Plaze met
A friend is coming in for the day, Wednesday, and will stay at Federal Center SW . Time is tight . We want to visit for lunch and or dinner and go to a nice restaurant (up to $ 20 per person lunch, $ 30 dinner for dinner without drinks ) Any suggestions . We could take a cab , not too far, if necessary to nice place.

Best answer:

Answer by tbugs
Go to the Market Inn. It is a very well known seafood restaurant. Your price range is definitely on the low side for a “nice” restaurant, though. Plan about $ 35 each for lunch and around $ 60 for dinner at a “nice” Washington DC restaurant. Yes, that is without wine or drinks.

What are the best hotels in or near the Castro neighborhood of San Francisco?

Question by slimandthecity: What are the best hotels in or near the Castro neighborhood of San Francisco?
I’m looking for a good hotel to stay in (preferably a chain) to stay in while I visit friends in San Francisco.

Best answer:

Answer by tonalc2
There aren’t any chains (other than a Travelodge) near the Castro, but there are plenty of little inns and guest houses:

However, you could find many chains on Union Square, and it’s about a 15-minute ride on the streetcar along Market to the Castro.
