A nice, clean, inexpensive, small hotel near Union Square. This is an ideal hotel for someone who wants a centrally located spot without the fancy perks of higher end, boutique hotels. It is clean. It has a nice staff. And the price is right. But it is located on the edge of the Tenderloin which remains derelict. I liked it and will stay there again.
