Great central location for staying. Lots of public transit options, safe (if you don't go too far west), right off a cable car line which is a fun way to get around.

Union square is crazy packed with tourist for the Powell St. cable car making it difficult to navigate through. It was nice to walk through and hit a few shops, but enjoy the beautiful architecture of the buildings and culture of San Francisco. Main issue is really the large numbers of people of just want to ride a cable car and then shoppers, feels like New York City in a way lol.
