Q: Specifically in the Hillcrest or downtown area and with a lenient credit check policy.
A: There's this place off of University in Hillcrest, by the Jack in the Box, where I think you can rent week to week. My co-worker used to stay there, apparently it's really cheap. BUT I hear that it's not that "nice" of a place to stay. I think all they have is a microwave in your room and a bed. It's called the Friendship Hotel, or the Friendship Motel. If you're looking for something really cheap that what I would recommend.
