I was there earlier this week (it's super handy when I forget to charge before visiting SF!) and noted two things:
- Tesla has determined that this is a "high-usage Supercharger station" and therefore auto-adjust to an 80% charge limit. Surprising they'd make that judgement after only a month. I certainly haven't seen it looking that busy on the in-car map.
- I got my parking validated upstairs at Sessions, and didn't have to pay anything, even though the exit gate was down. I was expecting to pay a $5 flat fee. The payment machine was also out of order (and had been for nearly a week), so I wonder whether everyone was getting free parking...?

No worries , nice day in the Presidio . Got a little lost but then found the parking garage. Fund the 6 supercharges with ease, and plugged in and charged for a brief 20 minutes. Enjoyed lunch at the Starbucks and wandered the park, then headed out for a scenic drive around the entire Presidio and crissy field. The only thing i would charge is that the parking garage payment system only accepted credit cards. No cash accepted in their machine.
Just popped in to this supercharger around 8PM on a Wednesday evening. The exit gate was up and only half the chargers were in use. It was nice not pay extra for parking especially since Presidio is pretty empty at night. I'm not sure when they don't charge for parking, but I do hope they continue to keep it free at night for folks coming in to charge.

I visited the Letterman supercharger on Sunday. There is a guard stationed on the way in. When I told him I was going to the supercharger, he said that I should be sure to have my card or fob, as there is no cell phone coverage in the garage. He also said that there are no restrooms available as Sessions gastropub was closed. Also, no charge for parking that day.
Here's my video review of the supercharger:

Phone works via BT to unlock and start, so cell coverage shouldn’t matter except for other app functions.
Heads up the security guard at the entry gate is now taking a temperature check (driver only) when entering the facility. Be sure to stop and have a mask on when putting down your window. Still wildly variable as to whether the gate is up or down (and hence whether charges apply).
Looks like they’re limiting opening hours at the moment; main gate (roller mesh) was closed at 11pm tonight, when signage suggested it would be open until 1am. No security around to verify.
Emailed the property management company at One Letterman Dr. and they are going to reach out to Tesla to have in-car nav data updated to reflect proper hours
Two more days of free access to this Supercharger… or will that be extended into 2021?
Also worth noting that Sessions at the Presidio has their entire food menu at half price for “a limited time”. Some great bargains for takeout while charging!

I've been there twice in the past 48 hours. I understand that they will allow open access during Covid.
Sessions at the Presidio has a great looking menu. I will be ordering lots from there soon.
I would assume - being offices, that those wall chargers are preferred because they don't need to worry about getting to their car as with Supercharging.
