Thanks! I am currently in a hotel in SOMA, but think to move a little bit southwest I guess — I don't want to spend more than $500/wk for rent, and housing is really a bit crazy in SF ;)

You can definitely find a place cheaper than $500/wk in SF. I live in the city, and pay way less than that.

  Yep. I lived (alone) in a studio in Potrero Hill, $1050 a month.

  Short term rentals seems to be more expensive than long-term ones

I would recommend roommates. 3/4 bedrooms are a lot cheaper per person than 1 bedrooms and you get a porch. If you post that you're looking for roommates here I expect you will find some. Or http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/roo/ http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/roo/

  I agree completely - contingent on getting good roommates of course. 1. Keeps you sane having other people about. 2. Means you're in a big place. Staying and working in a studio would be claustrophobic. 3. You will probably meet other people. 4. It's loads cheaper... Course, if the flatmates aren't the right people then it would be hell on earth. You should probably be upfront if you're planning on working from home - wouldn't suit everyone.
