Travel Tips from people who've been to California
6755213If you drive a car into San Francisco, be prepared to either parallel park or pay a premium for a lot.
For parallel parking, you may have to do so on a very steep hill so prepare yourself! For lots, expect to pay about $5-10 for a couple hours, $25 and up for overnight in private lots, and around $50 per night even when you are a guest at a major hotel.
