I'd give you guys a ride to the meet. The gym is in Emeryville which has a lot of hotels, they may be a bit pricey but this can be offset some by the fact that if you do stay in Emeryville you can walk anywhere for food. Also look into the Lyft or Uber apps to get rides if you need them, these are so big here that you will never have a problem finding a ride. Are you flying into SFO or OAK airport?
