Advantages: cheap

Disadvantages: noisy, old

I've just returned from San Francisco from the Ramada Inn at Union Square, just opposite the Hilton.

We stayed in the hotel basically due to cost and the fact that they had avalibility. It was once a 2 star but was upgraded following renovation. The hotel is very small and very old, although it has a new lick of paint this does little to help the overall appearence of the hotel.

Here is the most important tip, if you are staying in this hotel, make sure you do not get a room facing the road. The hotel does not have double glazing and it is extremely noisy throughout the night, particularly fire engines for some reason. It was so bad we had to move rooms after a couple of sleepless nights.

The staff were quite friendly, the hotel was only a couple of blocks away from union square and the main tram lines so it was good in that sense.

Go here if you are really on a budget, but I'd personally recommend that you avoid. No air conditioning and only one very very slow lift! - so low I was even walked up five flights of stairs rather than wait for it!
