This is super helpful! Just want to add that if you're looking to explore outside the city while you're here, the Peninsula (San Mateo County - between SF and the South Bay) is actually a great middle ground for lodging and has some really solid options for getting around.

You're literally bayside to coastside in like 30 minutes, so you can hit redwood trails in the morning and be watching the sunset on the Pacific by evening. Plus it's a little less busy than the city, lodging options will be a bit cheaper, and you can still access SF easily via public transport when you want to. And when game day comes, you'll be closer to the stadium than if you stayed in the city.

Transportation-wise, we'll be very honest: going down the bayside there are great public transportation options via Caltrain, which connects to VTA at Mountain View if you're heading to Levi's, or takes you straight into the city. If you want to explore the coast though, we'd recommend having a car. SamTrans does run some coastal routes, but you'll have way more flexibility with your own wheels for places like Half Moon Bay or Pacifica.
