Also, if costs are the only prohibiting factor, might I recommend staying in a hostel instead? My accomodation is going to be around the $20 per day mark (with free breakfast).
I'd pay money to see you eat whatever breakfast you get at that price.
I recall one place I stayed at in Latvia - everyday, breakfast was mystery Baltic Hotdogs & Something. Some days the something was canned beets, other days it was (we think) powdered eggs. Every day was a new surprise, but the weird hotdogs kept it consistent.
I'll have you know, this was considered a pretty high end resort town during communism.
