Second stay at this hotel. Such an easy drive for rental car return before early flight at SFO. Breakfast starts at 6am. Skipped, but did grab a coffee on the way out the door.

DoubleTree by Hilton San Francisco Airport
My colleagues & I stayed here for 1 night after leaving a conference in downtown San Francisco & flying out the next day. Positives were its proximity to the airport, spacious room with comfortable bed, & bar (the bartender Miguel was very attentive).
