Wow talk about timing, the last time I was in town there were a couple large conventions and could not get a room in the City at a 3-4* hotel despite weeks of bid proposal. Now I'm back in town for meetings and its Ground Hog day all over again. 2 huge conventions National Travel Association (5k) and Citrix (3.7k) Back to the Airport area but this time it's somewhat better in that I saved $10/night and got a 4* verse a 3* last time; although the Westin SF Airport does get some bad reviews. In hind sight should have stopped at $120 and tried some 3.5*'s. From now the Convention Schedule will drive client meeting dates :)

Used the Betterbidding PRICELINE link.

4* was $158 on Hotwire for this duration.
