Hotels in San Francisco

[D]

Yeah, the Nikko is still there but it's pretty expensive. Sorry to those who live there but I would also avoid the tenderloin and parts of SoMa.

That's rubbish - you may want to stay elsewhere, but the TL and SoMa have some of the best food, nightlife, and community vibe, etc in the city. Plus, the city's so small, there's really no reason to *avoid* anywhere - it's not like a quick visit to the 'loin will take you out of your way.

Best brunch in the TL, one of the most amazing veggie restaurants on the planet in the TL. Trannyshack at the Stud, fantastic restaurants, great cafes in SoMa.
