There is plenty of budget accommodation in Canberra. If you have a car then you can stay almost anywhere. The YHA is good although it is a long way out if you are using public transport. They do offer a free pick-up service from the bus terminal if you phone ahead. Check the Canberra tourism web site for current prices.
Hostel style about $20-30 per person for twin. Less for dormitory. B&B 's tend to be around $70-100 per double.
