Accommodation
While we are not close to any major hotels, San Francisco is relatively small and easy to get around. Here are 2 options:
OPTION ONE
You are welcome to stay at any hotel in the Union Square area (a few recommendations are listed below) in San Francisco and we'll comp your Yellow Cab expenses - max $15 per trip to and from our training location. Union Square is very central to San Francisco and is generally good for sight-seeing that part of the city. The only catch is that hotels in this area charge high parking fees.
Here are a few hotels that past students have stayed with and recommended.
*Note: Hotel rates constantly fluctuate so be sure to call the hotel to confirm current rates.
