Answer
The BART (subway) station at SFO is located near Concourse G in the International Terminal. Any hotel near Union Square, SoMa, or along the Embarcadero is fine for BART riders.
One night is practically no time at all.
Realistically, you have time for a quick glimpse of the Golden Gate Bridge, a walk around the historic core, and perhaps one more attraction or nighttime show. Even that requires a frantic pace that is very, well, atypical of the San Francisco lifestyle (especially on a Sunday). Although the City is quite busy, the vibe is laid back and relaxed. In this respect, San Franciscans are culturally more in line with Paris or Amsterdam than, say, New York.
Definitely grab a map and start walking. It is the best way to experience Downtown San Francisco. Depending on the location of your hotel, you may want to use the following historic squares and parks to orient yourself:
- Justin Herman Plaza (Ferry Building Market, Embarcadero Center)
- Yerba Buena Gardens (MLK Memorial, SFMOMA, MoAD, Cartoon Art Museum, Contemporary Jewish Museum)
- Union Square (Department Stores and Art Galleries)
- Huntington Park (Grace Cathedral, Cable Car Museum)
- St. Mary's Square (Old St. Mary Cathedral, Chinatown)
- Portsmouth Square (Central Chinatown)
- Washington Square (Little Italy)
- Pioneer Park (Coit Tower)
- Ghirardelli Square (Fisherman's Wharf, Maritime Museum)
If the weather cooperates and skies are clear, you can "see" the Golden Gate Bridge from half of the City. Walking or biking across is considered a rite of passage for many tourists. But it is quite an exercise. Not to mention extremely time consuming.
EDIT: If you happen to have extra time, ride the 5, 71, or N-Judah MUNI tram out to Golden Gate Park. The 9th Avenue entrance is a good place to get off if you are on the tram. This 1,000 acre green rectangle is similar to Central Park. There are two top-notch museums, lakes, recreational facilities, and lots of jogging paths. Obviously, the gardens do not come alive until March or April. But the landscaping is still pleasant enough in winter.

what are some natural ways to have clear skin?
Q. just like things that you can do in daily life to maintain good skin?
Answer
Don't eat junk food, first of all. Exercise -like running, biking, jogging, swimming, working out at a gym doing cardio stuff. Drink lots of water. Go easy on sweets. Include lots of vegetables and fruit in your diet.
Something I have discovered that is fabulous for my skin is coconut oil. It's kind of hard to find, but the kind I'm writing about is sold in small white solid blocks. And you can get it at some health food stores. My daughter gets it at Rainbow Grocery in San Francisco. Just rub your fingers in it so it melts a little, and rub it gently on your face. My face was really getting dry and had these little white bumps that were not pimples -I don't know what they were but they are gone now. My skin is clear and soft. Coconut oil is cheap too.If you can't find it, try vitamin E oil. It works really well and you don't need a lot of it, plus it is easier to find.
