Thanks for the replies everyone. I think after reading here, and some reviews elsewhere, I'm going to try Anza. While ideal, I'm not really that particular about covered, the price is decent, and the shuttles are apparently pretty frequent, which definitely helps.
Would love the price of Burlingame Airport Parking, but I'm seeing review after review about how bad, infrequent and off schedule the shuttles are. If it was just me traveling, maybe, but with young kids, and a long trip, not worth the potential of arriving back from SIN, and then having to wait 30 or 45+ minutes before getting a shuttle.

Yeah, I was noticing that. Even with the 4 days free coupon, taxes and fees bring the ParkSFO option to the same price (well...very slightly more) as the SFO long term lot. That's where I've been parking in general, but it was a great deal until they took away the park 1 day, get next day 50% (or whatever it was). That brings their prices from pretty much the lowest to the highest. If it was in the middle, I might take it. I get why the discounts ended - I bet the lots are completely full now, or pretty close. Was good while it lasted.

I parked at SFO Long Term Parking Thursday, April 21-24
Booked an 8:30pm-8:30pm reservation in February for my travel dates and it was $36.00 all in
(it's less expensive the farther out you bok and you can cancel for free up to T-24 hours)
I ended up parking on the top (uncovered) floor as it was full* everywhere else in both buldings
Travel time from walking from my car to the Airtrain to the United Terminal (T3) was 20 minutes
(and the same for the reverse when I arrived)
My return flight was almost 3 hours late arriving at 10pm and I didn't get to the checkout gate until almost 10:30pm.
Not knowing how to handle the late arrival, I played dumb
and drove directly to the check out gate
Scanned the QR Code on my phone
Machine said to try again
Tried again and the gate opened
No addtional chagres hit my credit card
Received a survey email upon return offering $10.00 off coupon for future use for completing the survey
(n.b. the coupon is a webpage vs an email so save the page)
*each floor has an overhead display showing either full or how many open spaces in each particular aisle/lane and each aisle/lane jas overhead green lights indicating where the spaces are but n.b.-many of the green lights are not valid for an available parking space as there are hitting on the empty striped off "no parking" spaces
Did you get into the new lot? Last few times at long term, they coned off the entrance to the new garage, and forced us to the old (though didn't seem too full as you need to walk through the new lot to get to the air train.
SFO long term does have a good grace period, which is one of the things I appreciated (even if I never had to use it). Though it takes skill to get the QR codes just right...I definitely had trouble with it the first couple of times, and have noted others having lots of issues.
