The Marina Inn on San Francisco Bay
Clean room and quiet!!!

Bay Landing San Francisco Airport Hotel
Rooms are clean but dated - electrical outlets old and loose so chargers wouldn’t stay plugged in. No USB outlets anywhere. Easy access to airport and ample free parking. Staff exceedingly nice. Short stay before early flight. Would probably choose another hotel due to outlet issues.
