Well, frankly, when someone says "within a 3/4 mile walk" I *do* tend to read that as most things are further away than closer. Because it seems to me that they'd mention it if there was lots of stuff *really* close. At least it's been my experience that people tend to write it that way. Perhaps my experience has been unusual.
I didn't find either the old hotel or its area to be problematic. I loved that hotel -- real Tiffany glass windows! I have to say, unless it has changed dramatically since the last time we were there I do not understand what was wrong with the neighborhood. I never felt endangered or unsafe there nor did any of the other folks (all female) I talked to. Sigh. I grow old and curmudgeonly and dislike change.
And it'll still be a hassle arranging transport from SFO.
