I recommend both of these places! Stayed at the Drury for house renovations recently and the La Quinta two years in a row for trips to SFOT.
As for lines for SFFT the 23rd shouldn't be too bad. Private Schools in the area let out the next week, public schools 2 weeks after that. The 24th wouldn't be ideal, and if possible avoidable. Expect rather long lines that day. The 25th shouldn't be too bad moderate but bearable lines.
