Ask HN: Finding a place in San Francisco for 1 month during the summer?

I've been looking for something from start May till end July. We'll be spending an equal amount of time between Downtown and in the Valley.

I've just landed a private place from someone who is going away for a break over summer. Avoid any of the "rental agents" on Airbnb or craigslist. They charge through the roof.

Best is if you know someone in San Francisco. Where are you located currently? It can be hard to find short term rentals in San Francisco unless they are horrid corporate housing apartments (stay away from any Trinity managed properties).
