I'm wondering about this myself.

My current plan to get from SFO to the Aloft is via BART (SFO -> 
Balboa Park -> Bay Fair -> Freemont) and then take a bus or a 
taxi from Freemont to the hotel.

It looks like one could take bus 200 from the Aloft to the 
Ardenwood Park-and-ride, transfer to bus DB, and cross the bridge 
to Facebook.

But, thinking about it a little more, a car is starting to look 
pretty good.
