Ask HN: In the Bay Area for two months, need housing feedback

Hey guys!

Me and two others are moving to the Bay Area for two months (1 Oct - 1 Dec). We are currently looking for housing, but haven't found anything within our budget yet (<= $3000/month). The three of us would like to live together (a 2BR apartment would be fine).

We already found accommodation at Silicon House (http://siliconhouse.us/#), but it's over our budget. However, we're still considering. Anyone has got experience with Silicon House? Is it any good? What are the opportunities of meeting other people/mentors? What about the in-house events?

Anyone else that might have some leads to a $2.5k-3k/month apartment in SF/Mountain View/Palo Alto?

Thanks!
