Answer 1

Bart is the most economical way to get from SFO to the city.  Closest station to your hotel would be Civic Center.  Bart stops running at midnight sadly though I was once able to get on the last train from Oakland airport to SFO at 12:15AM.

Many shuttle services at the airport.  From baggage claim walk to the 2nd island and look for ground transportation, van service.  

I usually use Super Shuttle.  Safe, economical and sane drivers!

van service is $17 + tip [$1 a bag is a good place to start]

Answer 2

Try to catch the last BART train to SF ( SFO is the airport code only)
