Hi Susan,
A place I can reccommend is about quarter the way up Monkey Forest Road on the left handside called Dewi Ayu.
The best rooms are at the bottom of the Garden set in really beautiful gardens.Last time we went just over a year ago it was rp60.000 a night with banana pancake bali kopi and fruit for brekkie simple rooms with hot shower, fan- Ive found a fan is more than enough in Ubud it's not so hot up there as it is in Kuta where I never turn the aircon off! Just a really nice place to stay.
Having said that there's heaps of places that are cheap in Ubud the best thing to do is just rock up and go in and out of places till you find what you want. Thats one of the things I love to do when we go to Bali checking out all the places to stay, there's some magic homestays out there more than you think and really cheap leaves more money for shopping!
