We stayed at the Courtyard South of Market in Summer 2006. It wasn't right in the thick of things, but we just walked a few blocks north to Market Street and could easily get to just about anywhere from there. It was also pretty close to a freeway ramp and its location meant it was pretty quiet. There is lots of knowledge about San Francisco here so I'm sure you'll get some good responses (which may differ from mine...and I'm okay with that!)

Well, it depends what you mean by best. There are a lot of Marriott-brand hotels in San Francisco -- three Marriotts, a JW Marriott in an equally good location, two Courtyards. And the Stanford Court and Ritz-Carlton.
So are you most concerned about how many points you'll have to spend, location, convenience to public transportation from the airport?

I've stayed at the SF Marriott Marquis a few times and really enjoyed it. One time they put me in a room with one of those rounded windows. Talk about an amazing view! It was wonderfully located for Union Square, SFMOMA, etc.
But I've also stayed at the Courtyard at Fisherman's Wharf when using points, and that was fun too. Just walked out the door and boom I was a tourist
So, as sf7307 says, it depends on what you are going for.

I have stayed at Courtyard at FW and also the downtown Courtyard on 2nd south of Market.
The one at FW is more motel like, the one on 2nd is more hotel like. The walk from downtown Courtyard to Market is about 10 minutes.
The FW one is right near the F trolley/streetcar stop and also near the Cable Car turnaround.
I prefered the downtown one. Really depends on what you are looking for, and if there is a difference in points or whatever.
