There are some ex-chain places around Vallejo that are probably cheaper,
but it's been 3 1/2 years since I used one myself so I can't quote
prices.
Motel 6 in Belmont (south of San Francisco International Airport on US
101) has a $90 basic rate. http://www.motel6.com/
If you do have a tent, there are state beaches, and it is after Labor
Day. :-)
