I need a place to live in Bogotà....help or advice?

Hey guys, I am in Bogotà teaching English and will be here at least 3 months, depending on how it goes. I have been living in an (expensive and noisy) hostal for almost a month now, and I just don`t know where to look to find somewhere....
I am looking either for a room for myself in a shared apartment, or a whole apartment, as there are a few others in the hostal who are looking for the same and sharing with them would also be cool.
I am not too fussy really, any area is considered(although my jobs are in Kr1-78 and Cll3-68 so somewhere in the middle would be cool, but I also like La Candelaria) I don`t mind who I live with really, although sharing with other young people would be preferable, as opposed to a family, but again anything is considered........I don`t want to pay too much cash, as my reason for being here is to save to continue travelling, not to live in the lap of luxury!

If you have a place I can look at, then wicked, if not any ideas on places to look for a room, or advice on whether it is possible or likely to find a flat for me and the others for a few months.....
Sorry for rambling but thanks for helping! xxxx
