“The Monarch Hotel is an older property with standard rooms in a less polished part of San Francisco; still, I think the location is convenient to Union Square and puts you within walking distance of many things. I noted the staff seemed welcoming and accommodating based on what I read. For travellers prioritizing budget over modern amenities, I think it's a reasonable option.”
