Footsteps from Union Square

The brochure advertising my hotel in San Francisco describes its location as "just footsteps from Union Square," which is true, in the same way that Daly City is just footsteps from Russian Hill. In other words, it is not. It is, however, deep in the heart of the Tenderloin, which makes up for the fact it doesn't offer cable television. For in-room entertainment, I can just look out the window and see Sex in the City or, with a valid credit card, I can order in.
