There is a hotel called I think the 'Courtyard' near Jayrakarta that was advertising for 200,000rp per night but you could negotiate that. We went to a few hotels down the lane near Bamboo Corner restaurant and most of them were in the 100,000rp per night range. My advise would be book a package with one or two nights accomodation and go from there. There are plenty of places but you need to front and barter and it depends on how full the place is.
In Ubud we stay at Dewa bungalows and get them for 100,000rp per night for a family of four and I am sure that the doubles are around 70,000rp.
On Lembongan just about everywhere is 50,000 to 70,000rp per night. And we have stayed at a lovely place in Amed for 100,000rp. All these places we have just arrived at and negotiated price. Sometimes have to go to a few places until we find something cheap enough.
