I'll need to rent a car for the trip. So, I can pick anyone up along the way from Mountain View.

Eww, I'd gladly leave this part to somebody who actually has a permanent internet connection and does not pay absurdly high mobile roaming fees...

Due to last minute issue, I find myself in an hotel in mountain view. 3km/2miles away from the caltrain, so I'll need someone to grab me if that is possible. I promise to be good company on the road :D

I'll be in SFO at midday if anyone is heading down from up that way? Otherwise, can anyone suggest the best way to get there from the airport? On 29 Apr 2013 05:30, "deadalnix" <deadalnix@gmail.com> wrote:

We have used door-to-door airport shuttles many times in the past. The cost should be around $35-45 to most places around Menlo Park.

When you arrive, just walk out of the international terminal; you can't miss the door-to-door shuttles. Ask their prices and pick the cheaper one.

Unfortunately, I work today. Otherwise, I would have picked you up like I will tomorrow, to take you to the ACCU talk. :) (Thanks again!)

Where is "there"?

I just used BART/Caltrain – not very fancy and takes a while to get there, but since my hotel is near the Palo Alto stop, it was ideal for me.

All good, I took the shuttle on Ali's advice. Cost $55. Much better than a
taxi.
By 'there' I was thinking anywhere in the area I guess (I presumed it would
all be walking distance). Turns out the aloft is on the other side of the
bay, and google maps was lying to me ;)

Who else is staying at the aloft?
