San Mateo Apt Valley Startup Hostel

9 pointsfreemanindia17 years ago4 comments

I'd like to use my apartment in San Mateo to give startup teams from other parts of the world a chance to experience Silicon Valley culture.

When this batch of the iAccelerator(.org) ends in September, I'd like to invite the RedAnyway(.com) team to spend 6 months there. In the meantime I'd like to sublet the apartment to another startup.

I mentioned before that I'd take equity / convertible note from a YC company, from anyone else I'd prefer cash. I've been asking $1600 / mo on craigslist, but I'm negotiable. My primary goal is to have cool people there doing interesting work.

FYI for outsiders the main startup hubs in the area are San Francisco proper, then the area around Palo Alto (Sunnyvale up to Menlo Park). San Mateo is a lovely place, but you're not going to walk down the street and bump into your startup friends like you can in South Beach or Univ Ave in Palo Alto.

I think you'll bump into more startup buddies in Mountain View than in Palo Alto. Just visit any coffee shop in Mountain View and you'll see -- they all look like computer labs. There might be more funded startups in Palo Alto though.

Seems like an expensive "hostel" at $53 a night.

Looks big enough to hold 2-3 people, which brings the cost to $18/night.
