Hi HN,<p>We are a startup from the Philippines and are staying in SV for 3 months for an immersion. For our lodgings we are left to our own devices. I've been looking at Trulia, Airbnb and Zillow for houses to rent but I don't have any idea if the prices are fair or are the location strategic or convenient. We are planning to rent a car. Our immersion host is at Sunnyvale (Plug N Play). Any help would be much appreciated.
Just to warn you about car rentals in US, I was recently surprised that a rental that was supposed to cost $130 (according to a booking at priceline.com) actually costed about $450. Insurance is super-expensive and renting navigation turned out to be almost as costly as renting the car itself.
