San Francisco is a major logistics corridor for FedEx, and if you're rotating through the Bay Area for route management, hub operations, or customer visits, hotel costs add up fast in this city. Code 01353080 gets you a corporate rate at the SureStay on Lombard Street, which is one of the more affordable pockets of the city without being far from anything. That matters when your per diem has to stretch across San Francisco prices.
The Property
The hotel sits at 1940 Lombard Street in the Marina District, a residential neighborhood lined with motels, cafes, and small restaurants along the old Highway 101 corridor. You're about 10 minutes from the Golden Gate Bridge, 15 minutes from the Financial District, and roughly 29 minutes from SFO airport by car depending on traffic. The Marina District itself feels calmer than downtown, with easy street parking and a neighborhood vibe that's a welcome change after a long shift.
As a SureStay property, expect clean, no-frills rooms with a queen or king bed, flat screen TV, microwave, mini fridge, and a small work desk with an outlet cluster. Rooms are compact, typical of San Francisco hotels in this price tier, but they cover the basics for a one or two night business stay. Wi-Fi is included, and the beds are comfortable enough that the 3.8 rating across 84 reviews reflects decent value rather than luxury.
Continental breakfast is included with your stay, which saves you $15 to $20 a morning in a city where a coffee and bagel can run you that much easily. The property has free Wi-Fi throughout and on-site parking, which is a real perk since garage rates in San Francisco regularly hit $50 or more per night. There is no pool or fitness center, so pack your running shoes if you want exercise, the Marina Green waterfront trail is a short walk away.
Chestnut Street is a few blocks south and has dozens of restaurants, coffee shops, and a Safeway for grabbing supplies. The 30 Stockton bus runs from nearby stops into Union Square and the Financial District if you'd rather skip driving downtown. For a quick dinner after work, try Izzy's Steaks on Steiner or Lucca Delicatessen on Chestnut for excellent Italian sandwiches.
Your Savings Breakdown
| Rate Tier | Rack Rate | Corporate Rate | Points Earned | Point Value | Net Cost | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $220 | $187 | 1,870 pts | $11.22 | $175.78 | $44.22 |
| Superior | $350 | $298 | 2,980 pts | $17.88 | $280.12 | $69.88 |
| Premium | $550 | $468 | 4,680 pts | $28.08 | $439.92 | $110.08 |
On a typical night where the rack rate runs $350, the FedEx corporate code brings it down to around $298. You'll earn 2,980 Best Western Rewards points on that stay, worth about $17.88 at 0.6 cents per point, which makes your effective net cost $280.12. That's roughly $69.88 back in your pocket compared to booking at full price, and in San Francisco, every dollar saved on lodging counts.

- Go to bestwesternrewards.com and log into your Best Western Rewards account, or create one if you haven't already
- Enter San Francisco, CA as your destination along with your check-in and check-out dates
- Look for the Special/Corporate rate field on the search page, it may be hidden under a dropdown or advanced options
- Enter corporate code 01353080 in that field and run the search

Stack Your Savings
If you have Best Western Rewards elite status, whether Gold, Platinum, or Diamond, those perks apply on top of the corporate code. Diamond members earn a 50% bonus on base points, which would bump the 2,980 points on a $298 night up to 4,470 points. Elite members also get late checkout when available and room upgrade priority, which at a smaller property like this can mean a quieter room away from Lombard Street traffic.
The Best Western Rewards Mastercard from First Bankcard earns 5 points per dollar on Best Western purchases, which would stack with your stay earnings for a combined 15 points per dollar. That turns a $298 night into over 4,400 points from the credit card alone, on top of your hotel earning. If you don't have that card, a general travel rewards card like the Chase Sapphire Preferred still earns 2x on travel and keeps your points flexible.
Best Western runs periodic promotions where you can earn double or triple points on stays booked during certain windows, typically announced a few times per year on their website. Booking midweek, Sunday through Thursday, often yields lower base rates that pair well with the corporate code for even steeper discounts. Check the Best Western Rewards promotions page before you book to see if you can register for an active bonus offer.
Bottom Line: Depending on the night and season, FedEx employees using code 01353080 can save anywhere from $44 to $110 compared to rack rates at this property, with Best Western Rewards points sweetening the deal further. The SureStay on Lombard Street won't win any design awards, but it delivers free breakfast, free parking, and a solid Marina District location at a price that makes San Francisco business travel actually manageable. For a one to three night work trip, it's hard to beat the value math here.
