Everything about this hotel AFTER we entered the front doors was nothing but fabulous: awesome room, above-and-beyond service from the front desk, newly renovated bar and lobby. Although the hotel is in close proximity to a lot of tourist attractions (Union Square, San Francisco trolley, etc) the area is not pleasant. I certainly didn't feel comfortable walking back to the hotel after dark. If you're a traveller who does most of your exploring during the day, you're fine (also, there are a few great breakfast places within a block or two). If you like to hit the town at night, take a cab back to the hotel or simply keep your feet moving on Geary and avoid all the side streets.
