if you stay near the airport, you should be good getting a hotel for 50-60 bucks @ least 3 stars and then getting a car to drive conveniently to SF. SF to airport is a short 12-15min ride. Good luck!

I usually bid 5 days out, but sometimes day of. Big discounts during weekends. Usually 5 or 7pm is the cutoff for booking that day.

Don't forget to check out local parking garage rates (yelp, etc) since hotel parking is $40/night usually.

I don't go out much, but I like a cocktail at the Redwood Room at the Clift Hotel, check it out. Marina District & Little Italy (Columbus Ave) have lots of bars. I think the clubs are more in the Mission Dist. Try to avoid the Tenderloin Dist & Market St. if you can, it can get pretty dangerous.

Thanks for the info fellas..

I checked out some reviews on hotels...there are certain parts of SF i should avoid with the hotel? alot of homeless folks and bad neighborhood?

parts of SF i should avoid?
