So I'm off to the midwest with my family, and we have to do long term parking at SFO. (We've tried every possible way out of it...long story.)

Anyone had good/bad experiences? Any good deals? I know it's just parking...but I've never had to do it before. I've always had a ride, or  was able to use public transport.

I've used skypark a bunch.  If you go to their website (skypark.com) you can print an online coupon that lowers the cost of parking a bit - $12/day outdoor.

They're close to the airport, and the van service from the parking to the airport only takes a few minutes.

If you want, they'll wash your car, detail it, change the oil, etc. while you're travelling.  

One time I was there and a tire went flat - they put air in it for me at no charge and told me that the tire was leaky, so I could get it repaired.

I've used ParkSFO and reviewed it:

Mostly indoor parking and very frequent shuttle service for free, about 14 bucks a day and then a 10% discount if you pay with a BofA or Wells Fargo credit or debit card.  Much less hassle than the long term airport parking.  

There is also long term parking at the Clarion Hotel down in Burlingame, and it's much cheaper, like 8 bucks.

You should also consider SuperShuttle, but if it's a large group it might be cheaper to park.

Check out Park 'n Fly . . . stay 3 days and you get 1 free, they have weekly rates, and you can actually reserve a space on-line.

Another option is to use BART to the airport..   Atleast you do not need to worry about parking your car outside and you can probably save some $$$ too!

Has anyone ever used the Clarion SFO long term parking? It's fairly new. The guy was nice on the phone. That's all I can really go on, and they are the most inexpensive so far.
