Flight
San Francisco International Airport is the best place to fly into. You can get to the city via BART or by taxi/an Uber. You can also fly into Oakland or San Jose, although it will take you more time to get to SF.
Hotel
We have a room block set up at the Sir Francis Drake Hotel in Union Square. It is an iconic hotel that we hope will help you get to know San Francisco a bit better during your stay!
House Or Rental
San Francisco is where Airbnb is based (not to mention where Jiaona works), so there are amazing options all around the city. We live in the Mission, which is close to the venue itself, but you will love any neighborhood that you pick (although perhaps avoid the Tenderloin).
Rental Car
Uber is the best way to get around the city (and Sumeet just happens to works there). If you decide to get a rental car, there will be plenty of parking near the Design Center. However, we can't guarantee the same level of parking availability across the city for the rest of your weekend. San Francisco is notorious for having way too many cars and not enough parking spaces.
