My kids were terrified. There was a woman screaming near our first room. They moved us to another room. There were people fighting outside.

It was located near Tenderloin and Soma, and that is crazy place. Do not recommend for single travellers.

Embassy hotel not Embassy Suites but worth my stay
I asked for the top floor at a quiet section. I slept well. I was there for the Databricks conference and I walked to Moscone Center during the morning. I took Uber and Lyft in the evenings. The front door is always locked with a person there to let you in. I felt secured. A saved hundreds for my 4 nights stay. There were some nice restaurants around there to grab a bite but business close early after dark. It is very close to the museum and walking distance to the civic center. It was very quiet at night on the streets. I didn’t hear any issues.

Good deal for the money.
My stay at the Embassy generally was good, however, the room was cold not warm and I requested an extra blanket, and it took them two days to get it to me by that time. I only had one night left so that was not very good, other than that, the day was OK.

DO NOT STAY HERE
The Embassy Hotel is run down and unsafe, in an awful neighborhood and with imsufficient safety protocols. The room appeared clean at first glance, but the bed itself and the blankets smelled like dried and burnt feces and urine, and I could feel debris and critters (maybe fleas or bedbugs or scabies) crawling beneath my skin. To make matters worse, there was a room filled with gangbangers having a rowdy gathering in the room right next to me, and the night attendant was dead asleep when I got up and hightailed out of the place at 5:30am.
