I've found that a combination of DW cleaners, BBEdit cleaners and a final
shot with a couple regular expressions usually gets nasty HTML into
something usable.
Often, just BBEdit or just DW (depends on the generator of the HTML) with
the greps works great. Saves a lot of time.
I haven't used Tidy all that much, so I can't comment on its ability to
clean, though I trust Martin.
