In short, I wasn't able to, I had to give up on rent allowance and just pay out of my own pocket. It's hard but like you said, rather than live in a rancid cesspool, I'd prefer to live on a shoestring and be comfortable. It's quite possible to find nice places between 300 and 400 but very little below the rent allowance limit.
